    Thank you. I used to find fasting was helpful especially as you love coffee. I'd have a black coffee til about 1pm then have breakfast.

    hair of the dog - a couple of cans of cider. Not even joking. Feel no drunken effects of drinking but I definitely feel the negative physical effects - headache, dehydration and tiredness. Does anyone recommend any good headache tablets? It's not just for today but generally. Spoke to my GP yesterday and they couldn't help as didn't think it was a migraine. They said it sounds like a tension headache because of all I've got going on. I take annadin extra with caffeine which is really helpful but the cost of it is adding up. I used to just take the 29p lidl tablets but must admit these work much better despite them all apparently having the same ingredients. Maybe I should take up the coffee habit again.  Been up all night! The excitement I think. I will have some Ardennes pate on a toasted muffin for breakfast a bit later. And yes I know I shouldn't be up all night drinking but my God it's been a hard week !

    Have signed up for crossfit as well. Very excited, anyone tried this or any other kind of physical challenge. They've assured me all exercises can be adapted for my disability im just gonna go for the initial 2 hour session then go alone as the ongoing sessions are too expensive

    Bless not surprised with your lack of sleep/alcohol intake i know the booze doesn't make you drunk but don't forget it can still cause dehydration that will have a knock on effect with sleep/headaches etc, so keep normal fluids up today "water" ha ha - thats it mother hens advise over x

    ha ha i rarely go over the daily limit - it just doesnt suit me especially after the surgery but i always have it thinking in vain i might get a nice little buzz and it never happens

    its really not a lot of alcohol. couple of cans a day, three at very max

    I've got some very sad looking vegetables lurking in the bottom of my fridge.  will they be ok to use for soup do you think ?

    ha ha i used to buy that ! It is a good coffee, the red one. I had mine the same, black no sugar, I liked the rich one too and sometimes had the green decaff when i was doing keto but realised was pointless

    oh yes i see what you mean, its hard with this sometuimes as you lose the flow of the conversation yes she is wrapped up in this so called hearthrob she knows nothing about - shes not even seen him in a live call ! but what can you do?

    Theres me in love with a gay man and her in love with a scammer#

    Think we should stick to food and booze lol x

    oooh i watched a tv show from a pro chef cant remember which one and they said all your old browning veg is actually still fine to use long after it looks and seems dead and is past its label sell by date so id say as long as it doesnt smell or look really terrible go for it 

    i hate food waste and buy most veg frozen and tinned now 
  • SueHeath

    Yep @Sue_Scope i would use it to make soup or stock as long as it doesn't smell. If you have any dodgy onions i wouldn't use them as they don't taste so good.
