Quick-fix Dinner With No Time To Spare And Egg Craving Satiating Evening-Breakfast
2 x egg whites - professionally seperated, boy i'm getting good at that
2 x "nimble" brown bread, purchased only by weight watchers dieters the world over - pleurgh. pleurgh.
2 x the last of the turkey rashers (sob)
2 x sneaky sprays of the fake butter compound

well, i missed my turkey rashers this morning, although i'm seriously worried about my intake of egg whites. my consolation is that i must be working them off, but i should probably consume some oily fish to counter the cholesterol. which i'm not looking forward to. this brings into the debate my strange empathy for sea-dwelling creatures. though not a sea-dweller myself, i do feel sad for little fishies what get caught. chickens and turkies annoy me, so my guilt is assuaged there. but poor fishes.

having said that, i'm going to get a tuna steak for tomorrow unless i want to run the risk of becoming an egg white.

Guilt Of The Day: twix-sniffing

Cute Platter Of Stuff And Extra Stuff From Tins
2 x ryvita (have i been spelling it wrong?)
2 x scrapings of quark
1/2 tin of mandarins - nom nom nom
storehouse full of pepper
tasty ginger pop

...i'm still unashamedly not bored with these snacks, but i'm aware that they may be palling on the diet diaries blogfans, so i'm going to try something different tomorrow... i swear.

Tastes Like Christmas Trifle: that'll be the mandarins

Most Missed Ingredient To Compliment Snacky: that weird fluffly cream that goes on a christmas trifle, complete with cheap-chocolatey hundreds and thousands

The Revenge Of The Sith

Quesadillllas v3.0
2 x macro-fillets of chicken
1/4 can of chick peas, for terrorism purposes
dollop of salsa
2 x the longest-lasting tortillas in the world, ever! volume 1
1 x sackful black pepper and the usual array of spices
1/6 tescos bag of Substance X
4 x huffy half-fat mozzy balls

...in which chick peas were found to explode loudly when exposed to microwaves, mozzy balls are outed as fickle beasts and Substance X is revealed to be an alien substance known as quinoa. it's pronounced keen-wah, you know. i didn't have the heart (or the appetite) to eat the chick peas in the end - their sad, empty husks lie now in my sink.

Interesting Cover Discovered On Radio 1 By Happy Accident: Teardrop by Massive Attack covered by people that sounded like Audioslave, but i don't know - i thought Jose Gonzales did a cover, too.

Temper Flared By: southern radio presenter declaring the tyne bridge to be over-rated.

Stuff-To-Be-Picked-Out-Of-Teeth Of The Year Award Goes To: quinoa (it's pronounced keen-wah, you know).

Meagre Breakfast Which Harley Would Disapprove Of Mightily
2 x slices of wonderful seedbread (i call it lembas in my head)
2 x smidgens of scraped butter (the horror! the horror!!)
1 x smoothie from aldi which will probably turn out to be soylent green
1 x pilfered handful of sunflower seeds
1 x shrink-wrapped turkey rasher

after peeling myself off've the excercise bike, i really couldn't face an egg-white, so i just had toast. and then i remembered my soylent smoothie, so i popped that on the table to make it look more healthy, then i thought "no protein!" and was less dead by this time so i bunged one rasher of turkey bacon in the microwave with the clingfilm to prevent nasty yuk. this did not go well, but i do now have a shrink-wrapped turkey rasher in my kitchen. in years to come, advanced civilisations will discover my plastic rasher and declare that the northpeople in ancient times struggled against the odds to provide polymer food disguised as meat.

Worrying Horoscope Prediction Of The Day: "Be on the lookout for airborne objects."

Just Shoot Me

1 x five minutes excercise bike hell
2 x bunch of biceps n triceps shenanigans
1 x not-so-sneaky-any-more core excercise thing - i'm whupping its ass
1 x five minutes excercise bike cardio fat-burning bit that supposedly burns more at the end or something (i read the book, but i don't claim to understand it fully - if i did, surely i wouldn't be in the position of a fat lass writing a diet blog??)

ew, gross! i just looked up "Shenanigans" in google to check my spelling and there's a club in Indiana that's "where couples go for fun". well, i couldn't budge my dad from gordon ramsey's kitchen nightmares last night, so i had to re-arrange my "no-excercise day" two days into the plan. and i was looking forward to doing this thing to the letter, too [half of a half of a twix notwithstanding]. so i had to bustle myself out of bed early and flop onto the wobbly excerise bike of doom before i even thought about breakfast.
