Feeling lighter. More challenges coming up though. Spending 3 nights next week at stepdaughters. Ugandan daughter comes back at the end of the month. Leaving for Thailand Nov 30 and I MUST meet my goal.
Going into Glasgow tomorrow for eye exam and a wee bit of shopping. Eating lunch out and how disciplined I'll be remains to be seen.

Cals: 1237

Had 2 oatcakes watching tv last night (72 cals) so ended the day at 1279.
Muscles are a wee bit sore from my workouts, but not bad. Back to normal number of sets now. Today is just laundry, Skyping granddaughter, husband will be watching rugby world cup all day. I only pay attention when Scotland plays.
Have started thinking about getting our freezer empty before Thailand the end of November. Would be wasteful to leave on a fridge and a fridge freezer while we are gone for 3 months. So we just empty them and turn them off.

Have a wonderful Sunday. 
Staying away from the scale is a good idea. I always get so frustrated when I've been very good but the scale doesn't agree, even though I know there are flucutations for lots of reasons.
Guests are gone. Ugandan daughter will return with another friend in a couple of weeks but they will be here for one night, then catch their train to London, then come back for a couple of days. Daughter will stay here and we'll take her to the airport to go back home. Hopefully she'll get another visa and return in April as she's been offered the same job she has now.
Workout at home: Did the full 3 sets each this time.
Well, I was weak yesterday and the smell of that lasagna was just too tempting. So I had lasagna - but only one serving and everyone else had two, lots of salad, but too much garlic bread. Had 3 or 4 pieces out of the box of chocolates and everyone else helped so there are only a few left.
Tonight's dinner will be leftover lasagna and leftover curry. I will skip the lasagna.
Menu:
Cals: 1260 + a chocolate

Actually stuck to calories yesterday while watching everyone eating the chicken bacon mashed potoatoes gravy......Daughter's friend thought it a bit weird until I mentioned most of my clothes are now too tight after 5 weeks in the US. She understood! The friend brought me a box of chocolates. Sigh. She even apoligized when she gave them to me. Think I'll share them and just have one.
We are all going on a bike ride today. Might stop in a cafe for lunch and if so I'll just have soup. I'll have the same leftover curry for dinner tonight. Hubby is making them veggie lasagne.
I'm surprised at how sore I am today. My thighs are especially sore as I wasn't doing any spin bike or biking of any kind. No workouts today, but will do tomorrow. Already been to the dentist for teeth cleaning, grocery shopping and now need to clean house!
Guests today until Saturday. Ugandan daughter and her friend. I dutifully bought her white chocolate Magnums (ice cream bars) and Nutella. Dinner tonight for them will be: chicken with bacon, potatoes and gravy, peas and carrots (her fave), salad. But I will just eat leftover curry and a salad. Her friend likes G & T's so I will have one will her tonight.
Menu:
Cals: 1262
Not going to get on the scale until at least Nov. No point. It won't accurately reflect any gain/loss as I can tell that I've lost some muscle. But I'll certainly know I'm losing by how my clothes fit.
Very sore, but still a good sore. Don't want to overdo or get injured!

Still jet lagged! This trip really took it out of me. I guess it's taking longer this time due to 5 hour difference for 5 weeks. Wonder how long it will take after we spend 3 months in Thailand??
Didn't make it to the gym this morning. Stayed late at our friends' house.
Workout at home: Finally!
Did not do my muscle workout yesterday and doubt I'll do it today. Still too jetlagged. We didn't wake up until 9:30 this morning. And yesterday I think I ODd on fibre so wasn't doing well. 
Invited to friends' house for dinner tonight. Wine will be kept minimal. At least that's my plan. Dinner won't be very high calorie.
To the gym tomorrow. Hope I can get into my spandex capris!
Just two months to next holiday! My summer clothes MUST fit!
Going to do 2 sets of everything instead of 3 so I don't get too sore after such a long break.

I KNOW you are very disciplined! :-D

Tough to watch calories with so many meals eaten out. Hopefully step daughter will keep you in mind when planning meals.

Wow ! A full Whack ! I've said it before, Annie. You are a workout machine. Have a great day.
