| Word of the day: humuhumunukunukuapua‘a -- Thursday April 14 |
| 04.13.05 (7:34 pm) [edit] |
Last night I arrived home to find Miles had bought my absolute favourite thing for dinner... Latina pasta. Ohhh yummo! I thought I'd be a good girl and work out the points (expecting maybe 6-7)... it was over 10. OMG! We used to eat this stuff all the time... no wonder I've gained so much weight since being with M! I toyed with the idea of just eating it and scrimping on points for today and tomorrow (I was literally drooling into the pot by this stage... and besides, Miles had bought it especially!) but instead I admitted to Miles that the pasta was pretty bad points-wise... and had plain spirals instead. That's a pretty huge achievement for me, Ms Pasta Addict herself! :wink:
Eating has been going pretty well... went a couple of points over yesterday but Monday and Tuesday I stuck to my points. It's TTOM at the moment so I'm hoping to be quite a bit lighter by Monday... fingers crossed!
Work is pretty crazy at the moment. I'm coordinating a book (which means extra hours in the office) and uni workload is mounting quickly... I'm so proud of myself for not giving into the stress eating urges. I think all the exercise is really helping me to stay calm... it's awesome!
I finished off my "New Lifestyle" scrapbooking layout last night... can't share yet cos it's going to be published in the Scrapboxx newsletter... but once the newsletter is out I'll post it! Maria at Scrapboxx put up all the gorgeous new KI Memories stuff last night... OMG it is so beautiful! I want it all!
Anyway, I'm posting from work (naughty me) so I'd better get back to it... oh and in case you're wondering, humuhumunukunukuapua‘a means Hawaiian triggerfish... the word is used many times in the book I'm coordinating (the second edition of Maui). What a cool word huh? :lol:

Far out! It took me a few thousand times to try and say that word B!! That one will be tricky to check and check again so that its spelt right!
And there's NO WAY I'm waiting to see that LO... I want it in my email box ASAP!!! :)
And... I AM SO PROUD OF YOU for not eating the Latina pasta!! OMGosh!! That stuff is sooooo yummy and I don't know if I could have passed it up!! You rock!!!
I think the scales will definitely see a big loss this week for you!!

Ello Ello!
Where do you buy all of your scrapbooking stuff from? Do you have any of your layouts on the net? URL Please hehe!
Good girl with the pasta. I'm a sucker for pasta. I should really be changing to brown pasta but ahhhhhhhhh white all the way hehe.
Have a nice weekend :)

Nicely done Brooke. I've always known pasta to be massively high in carbos, and I've been trying to avoid it like the plague also.
