Today's (30th August 2026) tea photo

I was wrong this morning when I said my breakfast photo was either the penultimate or last photo of the month 'cos there's one more day left in August lol

Today's tea was the last of my OddBox - a pear.

Here's today's tea photo:

I was wrong this morning, I'm sorry

For the last 2-3 nights and especially mornings, I've been feeling cooler than I'd like and I pondered on maybe putting the duvet back onto my bed when I next changed the bedding so that I could feel warm when I woke up again.

I've just started getting a bit hot and sweaty again, so I'm glad I was wrong this morning and that I didn't act on what I was thinking!

Mornin' all

Well, my prediction last night kinda came true and kinda didn't... I woke up desperate for a wee and had to rush to the bathroom, that bit of the prediction was true, but my bladder allowed me to stay asleep until 5am thankfully.

My 'Morning Stability' score on my Visible was another 3 so I can finish the week off with a few laps, sit-ups, cruches and twists again.

I've taken my second blood pressure reading with my new machine and it was a lot higher than on the original machine, but still low (116 again).

I had 2 liquid breakfasts this morning - my usual glass of water to pop my morning pills with, including a 5-HTP this morning, and a bottle of Wonky Orange juice.

I've also brushed my teeth and started a new bottle of mouthwash.

The daily virus scan was reassuringly clear again, so time to crack on with my day again now I reckon - a day of getting Steve's savings onto the spreadsheet I reckon, which will break my heart all over again, but never mind.

Mornin' all/woops!

My memory was even worse than normal yesterday, by the looks of things, 'cos I didn't update this blog after I found out about the appointment day!

So far this morning I've taken my 'Morning Stability' reading which was 3 so I can do my laps again (but I'm not gonna risk anything else otherwise I'll be too wobbly for my medical appointment), my blood pressure was 107, my 10 morning pills have been popped and I've had a light breakfast of a yoghurt and orange juice.

I've just started the virus scan off, so I'll get my breakfast photo and to-do list up when that's finished.

Gonna get washed and changed at lunchtime so that I'm as fresh as possible when I go to the appointment this afternoon.

I was wrong, I'm sorry

I thought my medical appointment and taxi were today, so I got totally ready today and barely drank this morning, but I've just checked my appointment and with the taxi and it's tomorrow not today - woops!

I can have a proper lunch now!

I was wrong, I'm sorry

My first delivery of the day has just arrived and there's more than an hour before my grocery time slot starts, so I was wrong with my prediction of it turning up at the same time as my groceries this morning and I'm sorry for my mistake.

Gooood morning all!

I've woken up in a positive-ish mood this morning, taken my blood pressure which was in my own personal reference range, popped my 10 morning pills and had my breakfast, before remembering that I was going to get washed and changed today, so it's too late now otherwise I'll throw up my breakfast.  The monthly virus scan is underway and my aches and pains are manageable today.  It's another 3 from my Visible today.  The soya milk tasted off this morning, so I've poured it down the sink and put another carton in the fridge ready for tomorrow.

Time to get today's breakfast photo up, then today's to-do list now I reckon.

I was wrong this morning, I'm sorry for my mistake

I thought and typed this morning that today would be my Mindful Souls subscription box but I've just checked my account and it's not due until 7th May so today's delivery is a product test that I can't wait to try out and I'll let you all know my thoughts on it as soon as I'm allowed to - I'm hoping it's yummy and me-friendly otherwise I'll be spending forever in the bathroom and potentially bouncing off the wall for hours lol

I'm sorry for my mistake this morning.

Mornin' all

For the first time since Sunday, I'm wearing fresh clothes!!  I got washed yesterday, but put the same clothes back on again... not this morning though - it's all fresh because I'm seeing my best friend today!

My blood pressure was back down to normal, my 10 morning pills went down fine, I've had my breakfast and a litre of water so far this morning, so I'm doing well!

The daily virus scan is almost finished, so I can get today's breakfast photos up when that's done and dusted and hopefully clear.

I'm sooo itchy this morning, but can't work out if that's because of hayfever or something else.  It's my skin that's itchy as opposed to my eyes so it could be anything!

Also, I was wrong last night before I went to bed - I said it was Beltane at sundown yesterday and it wasn't, it's sundown today to sun up tomorrow 'cos it's the Pagan Mayday (which is actually a Pagan celebration), so I'm sorry for my mistake.

The daily virus scan has just finished and it found an 'Advanced Issue' so hold on while I fix it... OK, all done and dusted until tomorrow now.

Time to get today's breakfast photos up.

Woops!

I realised while I was doing my laps that I should only have been doing them once a day because of where my weight was on Monday, but I've been doing them twice a day and it's pointless/too late to stop doing that now this week, 'cos there's only one exercise day left!

If I'm over .55kg then it's twice a day.

If I'm between .00 and .50 then it's once a day.

If I'm below .00 then it's once every other day.

You watch me forget again next week lol

I was wrong yesterday, I'm sorry

I said yesterday that I was gonna have my second dose of caffeine this week, this morning, but yet again I forgot.  I was wrong and I'm sorry for my mistake.

Will tomorrow be any better or will it be Sunday or not at all any more this week??

Woops!

I've remembered, then promptly forgotten, to update this blog several times today, but I think I've achieved a fairly decent amount in the last few hours.

I was wrong, I'm sorry

I've just paid my Council Tax bill and I was wrong about how much it was 'cos that was without the single person discount and was actually just over £1100 rather than £1500 like I thought.  I was wrong and I'm sorry.

Goooood morning all!

I've woken up feeling pretty positive so I took my blood pressure which was pretty normal for me at 104, then had my breakfast of a 500ml glass of water to take my pills with, then decided to get washed and dressed after all because there was still over 2 hours to go before my delivery is due and I've just come in, started up my laptop and run the daily virus scan which was all clear, so that's reassuring.

I'm not gonna have anything solid until the delivery has been and gone and potentially after that too, if it doesn't come until 1pm, so it'll be a day full of drinking choccies methinks.

Gotta put the recycling out this afternoon and hopefully get my nose stuck into a book.

Time to get today's breakfast photo sorted and the to-do list together now I reckon.

Today's (18th February 2026) lunch photo

I think I was wrong when I said that I'd be having the butternut squash on Thursday - I forgot that I didn't have a proper lunch on Monday so there's still one sausage roll left, which I'll have tomorrow then the hash browns and butternut squash on Friday and Saturday.

Today's lunch was the same as yesterday's - a vegetarian sausage roll, 3 hash browns, approx 10g of Vegan Mayo and a 330ml can of a passionfruit pop.

Here's today's lunch photo:

Woops!

I forgot about my Amazon delivery, but that's due between 12pm and 1pm, so I'll do my laps and be able to relax when that's arrived, but that really is it then lol 

Nutrition-wise...

...today and tomorrow are gonna be very healthy food-wise because I've already put my breakfast, drinking chocolate and lunch into my FitBit app so that I don't forget and I've still got over 1,000 calories left to play with today!

I've also unofficially weighed myself for the second time today and I've lost 550g since I had my breakfast too!  Just got 800g to lose before I'm back down to the weight that the nurse wants to be and I've taken all the chocolate bars and crisps off tomorrow's grocery order and put nuts on instead.  I was 1.35kg over where the nurse wants my weight to be but after this morning's laps, sit-ups and crunches, I'm only 800g over so I'm pretty proud of that.

If my first OddBox delivery is already doing this to me 5 hours after getting it, then I've got high hopes for the future!

I was also wrong about them being weekly boxes - they are fortnightly which is a lot better considering how full my fridge is now!

It's 125g of chestnut mushrooms and vegan mayo for lunch today and tomorrow, then I'll see how I feel starting on Wednesday - I've got hash browns and the other vegan melt if I'm hungry or plenty of fruit if I'm not.

I'm not gonna turn into a crazy health-nut, but I wanna get my weight down to where the nurse wants it to be and keep my heart healthy with the exercises too... I'm hoping that I can get rid of my belly and thighs in the process too.

Wrong again!

I've just checked the use by date on the bacon and it went out of date on Christmas Day so I've binned it and I'll be having the things I've had before tomorrow.  A bit disappointing, but I'm not willing to take any risks.

Mornin' all

I was wrong about my being over the worst of the diarrhoea yesterday because I woke up this morning and it was back out in full liquid force again, so my meals today are gonna be dry solids, so I didn't have me-friendly spread on my toast for breakfast and I won't have mayonnaise with the onion rings at lunchtime either.

My morning Visible reading was 3 out of 5 and my blood pressure was back out of my own personal range again, so I'm gonna take things gently and won't get washed and changed again this morning or do either of my sets of laps and definitely no sit-ups or crunches.

I remembered to take my Omega gummy along with the other 8 morning pills today, so they will be getting things sorted in my body with their goodness.

The daily virus scan was all clean, so that's reassuring.

Time to get today's to-do list together now I reckon.

I dunno where...

...I got 4pm today from, but my hall light has just gone and tripped the electric so I emailed the electrician to see if he could come earlier today so that he could see and he replied saying that we'd arranged for 2pm tomorow instead lol  Loki is obviously in the mood for creating havoc for me today lol  I'll have to do my second set of laps, sit-ups and crunches before lunch so that I can see where I'm going, but it's the last time this week, so that's not so bad.
