COME ON ENGLAND!
Today, I shall be mostly cheering on my boys.....
COME ON ENGLAND!!!I went to the bank this morning to change my surname & they changed my name to.....
TINY Bailey - Pretty ironic, I thought LMFAO!!!!!
They've fixed the error now, but not until I pointed it out to them & then had to spell TINA to the cashier - seriously... where do they get their employees from LOL!!
I'm off to my cousin's shortly for her son's 1st birthday party!!
I'll then be home, making veggie burgers for tea & then parking myself on the sofa for the ENGLAND vs USA world cup match.....
My England flag is flying high - out of the 3rd storey bathroom window to be exact LMAO!!!
I'm planning on drinking a beer or 6 while watching the match so am expecting to be very ill tomorrow LOL!!!
Weighed in at 10 stone 7lb today - I'll take it!!
Have a great weekend everyone xxxx

TFI Friday!!!
Well... we had an interesting night last night.
Lee had been complaining of chest pains all day yesterday & it got worse at tea time.
He had milk & Gaviscon but after half an hour it was no better so I dragged him to A&E! (Remember - my dad died of a heart attack so I am really manic about chest pains).
He was seen by a triage nurse very quickly & then - miraculously he felt ok again LOL!
They insisted on giving him an ECG (Trace on his heart), followed by a chest xray & full bloods before leaving him sat on a trolley in the corridoor in A&E - gotta love the NHS)!!
We arrived at the hospital at 7pm & left at about 11.15pm, after being told everything seems normal & to try Gaviscon if it happens again LOL!!
It was a waste of an evening but at least I could sleep soundly knowing my hubby would not be blue when I woke this morning!!
I also survived the lure of the vending machine - YAY!!
The scales are showing 147lb this morning - Lee has had a great week though - he's down just under 1lb - YAY!!
Tomorrow sees the start of the WORLD CUP (Soccer).
ENGLAND vs USA - I know who my money's on hahahaha!!
COME ON ENGLAND!!!!!!!!!!
I hope you all have a great weekend.
Mine's set to be busy - 1st birthday party tomorrow, the England match tomorrow night, definitely a few beers will be downed then so I am expecting to have a sore head & not be much use on Sunday haha!! xx

MMMM Smoothie!!
I had a load of strawberries which had to be eaten asap so I whizzed
them (200g) with a small banana & a bit of ice in the blender...
MMMM Thick & creamy & SOOO GOOD!!!!!
Alas... it sent my sugar intake rocketing on myplate - D'oh!!!!!
It's only 11.30am & I have consumed twice as much sugar as I am
allowed hahahaha!!
Yesterday was a bad day food-wise!!
It was a crazy chaotic day in general - 6.30am get up, drive to my mums,
take her to the hospital, (Had a banana early on & was starving at
10.30am so had a kitkat chunky - damn hospital vending machines)!!!
When I got back to my mums I had 2 slices of toast..... she put butter
on it - again
(I really should stop accepting food at my mums - she is on a high fat
diet for being underweight so there's not many healthy options about)!!
I then had 2 slices of peanut butter & banana on toast at about
3.30pm, followed by a slice of Asda's good for you summer fruit
cheesecake.... Then another slice of it at 8.30pm - EVIL CHEESECAKE is
now gone lmao!!!!!
Myplate looked like this yesterday....
(I did burn 298 calories doing 2 hours of ironing though so technically, I was within my calories)!!
Ironically, the scales are down today so I guess all was not lost LMAO!!
Thank you to everyone who has voted for me in the Next model competition. (I have entered to try & get "Normal" sized models in there - not just skinny UK size 6's lol.
If you haven't voted, you can do so here (I am told you can vote if you're not registered on facebook, by entering your email address instead).
Kat, I hope Laila is ok & is back home VERY SOON.
xxxxxxxx
Have a great Thursday everyone xx

I need your help...
... I have decided that NEXT (a huge UK fashion store) need to use "Normal" sized models.....
They are currently running a competition to find some new models in the UK & I have decided (After lots of nudging from various people) that my long legs should enter LOL!!
The competition is being run on Facebook & the 100 most popular entrants are invited to London for a day of fun, where several winners are chosen to feature in the NEXT catalogue & you get £2000 to spend in store with them!!
(This is an amazing prize in itself)!!!
So PRETTY PRETTY PLEASE will you vote for me if you have facebook????
(I'm not sure if you can vote from outside of the UK, so let me know if you have any issues).
Thanks in advance.
I am by no means top 100 material compared to some of the stunners on there, but am hoping my gift of the gab & super long legs will get me to London at any rate haha!!
XXXXXXXXXXXX
Here's the link one more time in case you missed it hahaha

Thank You All!!
Thank you all for your kind words & congratulations - it means a lot!!
We had a great day - very much how we wanted it to be!!
We polished off 3 bottles of bubbly last night, I then downed 2 pints of water & woke with no hang over at 7.15am!!! It's a miracle hahahaha!!
Lee did have a fight with the Decking, though...!!
(He slipped on it & fell with a right clatter, banging his bum & 1 finger LOL)!
He's fine, but has a huge splinter in his fingertip, going into his nail bed.
Here's a couple of photos for those of you who aren't my friend on Facebook...
For those of you who don't know us that well... we have quite a few teddies...
2 of them also shared our big day with one of their own hahahaha...
(Meet Roodle Reindeer & his wife, Vixen...!!)
You've gotta love build a bear!!!
We bought these last Christmas & didn't have the heart to put them in the attic with the rest of the Christmas stuff, so they are quite possibly the only Reindeer in Manchester this June LMAO!!
We are both very much back on plan food-wise today.....
I started the day with 2 weetabix, semi skimmed milk, chopped strawberries & a coffee.
I weighed in at 146.5lb this morning - No idea how I dropped 1lb after the amount of booze I put away last night LMFAO but I am not complaining!!
Oh... I can't remember if I said or not, but I STILL don't have a bridesmaid dress for my friend's wedding next month... It arrived last week but was totally the wrong style so they have sent for another one which should be here the week before my friend's wedding..... Let's cross our fingers it doesn't need any alterations or I may be a thin, naked bridesmaid hahahaha!!
Hope you all have a great Tuesday!! xx

I Got Married This Morning!!
Yup... the title says it all!!
I had a very secret ceremony this morning LOL!!
Only 5 people knew it was happening.....
Me... Lee... 2 Witnesses & Heather!!
We said "I Do" at 10am (UK time) & then all went off for a Giraffe breakfast haha!!
(Me & Lee got changed first)!!
We then went to break the news to my mum - who took it very well LOL!
Tonight me & Lee are celebrating with a bottle of Moet before getting well & truly back on track tomorrow!!
My wedding day weight... 147.75lb - I'll take it LOL!!
Here's me in my wedding frock (UK size 12 - a bit big in my opinion lol)!!
Will blog properly tomorrow xx

6 Weeks Today.....
... Until I am wearing that
Bridesmaid's dress!!!
Not long now!!
There's a LOT going on
between now & then, too!!
Bridesmaid dress fitting, finishing
up the new games room, Hospital with my mum, Shopping for an outfit for
Emma's Manchester Hen Night, Emma's Manchester Hen Night! There will
also be 2 children's parties - my niece is 7 & my cousin's baby is
1! Heather is down the 1st weekend in July! I'm at Silverstone the
weekend after that & then it's the WEDDING!!!!!
BUSY BUSY
BUSY!!!
I am still not online using our home broadband so I have
still not uploaded my holiday photos - I will soon... promise!!!
The
kitchen is like a building site at the moment - filled with computers,
wires, boxes, building materials, DUST..... *sigh*
Food intake
has been within calories but not as healthy as it would have been &
it felt like I ate WAAAY too many carbs!!! (Myplate disagreed though
lol)...
Here's a list of my meals first.......
Breakfast: 2x
small white thick toast with 10g Clover lighter margarine & a large
mug of tea with semi skimmed milk.
Lunch: 2x small
white thick toast with 10g light salad cream & 3 slices of quorn
beef style sandwich meat.
2x small
white thick toast with 10g light salad cream & 2 slices of quorn
turkey style sandwich meat. 1 Large mug of tea with semi skimmed milk.
Afternoon Snack: Wall's
Mini Twister Ice Lolly (My new must-have snack).....
Check out the
nutrition on this LOL!
(45 calories & 1g of fat for an ice cream fix from my all
time favourite ice lolly - YAAAY!)
It's about half the size of a
normal twister ice lolly & it is just enough in my opinion!!
(Green-lime is exactly the same on nutritional by the way)!!
Anyways.....
Tea: 2x White
Rolls, 10g Ketchup & 3x Linda McCartney Veggie
Sausages. 1 large mug of tea with semi skimmed milk.
In between I
drank about 1 pint of water.
To me, yesterday was a BAD day - it
seemed like way too many carbs & no veggies or fruit (We are out of
all of the above & due to the dust in the kitchen (Sawdust) I am
not in a rush to replace them!!
Myplate said this about
yesterday's intake.....
I am baffled by that LOL!!
I thought I ate WAAY too
many carbs, I thought my sodium would be through the roof after so much
processed food yet the only thing I had too much of was protein LOL!!
Today
started with cereal, it will be a
sandwich & icelolly for lunch & pasta with something quorny for
tea haha!! - I do have 2 very over ripe bananas which may end up being
blended with milk & ice for a nice afternoon drink to get in one of
my 5 a day hahahaha!!
started with cereal, it will be a
sandwich & icelolly for lunch & pasta with something quorny for
tea haha!!
Tomorrow will contain a subway to
get in some veggies!!
I hope you all have a brilliant weekend
& fingers crossed I'll be working as normal from Tuesday onwards!!

I'M BACK!!!
Just a quick blog to let you all know I am back & we had a great time in IBIZA!!
I gained 1.5lb but have lost half of that in just 24 hours - yay!!
We are now living on a building site while the cinema room is ripped out & changed to the games (console) room so we're not working this week.
(The broadband is all stored in the room being ripped out so we are without the net all day)!!
I have been reading people's blogs from yesterday on my iphone but you can't comment from that.
I will upload photos & give you a full account of our trip when I have full internet access once more.
(I'm using our mobile internet dongle now & its stupidly slow lol)!!
xxxxxxx

TODAY'S THE DAY.....
(in more ways than one)!!!
Today's the day I go to IBIZAAAAA!!!
It is also the day I got to record my weight as being below my target -
HOORAY!!!
(I'm sure it will be back up by next week, but not to worry... 4 days of
"all you can eat & drink" will do that to a girl hahahaha!!)
I intend to eat as well as can be expected, being veggie... chances are
it will be mainly cheese based food options - I'll survive!!!
My downfall will most definitely be free beer hahahaha!!
It's free local stuff so the choices are sangria (red wine punch stuff),
san miguel (beer - yummy), or cheap spirits.
My plan..... 1 beer, 2 waters!!! or 1 Sangria... 2 waters!!! AND only
drink spirits in cocktails on the builder night - the main hen night!!
Hopefully this will stop me turning into a total cry baby - which seems
to be my mindset when I drink a lot lately. hmmm.
I am packed, (almost) and we fly in 11 & a half hours' time!!! (10pm
GMT)
I'll take plenty of photos, and will let Titaniastar know when I have
arrived there, so I am sure she'll let you know I'm alive hahahaha!!
I won't be able to blog, remember & my facebook statuses will be
sparce as it costs a lot to connect to the net on my iPhone from there!!
Here's a photo of me in my builder's outfit... not my hottest outfit, I must say!!
I'll be wearing it with short denim shorts & a black tight tshirt, so it will look different lol but you can see I'm clearly not a Medium men's any more...!!
And, of course... here's my WI photo... I switched the scale to pounds this morning, for a change LOL!!
Have a great weekend, everyone!!!!!! xxxxxxxxxxx
