Malteasersss D:

I don't know how often I've explained my love for Malteasers, specifically the easter bunny treats they do this time of year. But I have been on this wheat free adventure for a little while and got informed by my celiac friend that they're now off limits to me :( Toh noes. They're my favourite! I've already had to veto so much and now my favourite sweets. 

I will though if I have to. I'm hardcore moding this for a couple of weeks to see if it makes a difference. Thankfully the epic bloating I was having during the show and rehearsals has died down, leading me to thinking that stress does indeed make it worse. I just need to chill the fuck out clearly. I half wish I lived on my own at the moment because it would be so much easier to just buy the stuff I know I can have. My mum, bless her heart, went out today and got me two big bags full of gluten free snacks and treats and crackers and the like. Absolute star. She's taking this in her stride although she also bought me a southern fried chicken for tea lol. We'll get there. It's a new thing not just for me. 

Anyway today has gone well food wise. I had a gluten free toasted English muffin with jam for breakfast with a yoghurt drink, and as it's payday I took mum for dinner in Morrisons. I had a prawn jacket potato..which did have the sauce on it which may account for my slightly bloated belly currently. I don't really know. I'm not hardcoring dairy because my lactose intolerant friend, who is affected quite badly, says she still has chocolate and cheese and the like..just not loads of it. I also had a couple of mum's chips because she can't finish her food ever on account of her gastric bypass. Not a lot though, maybe five. Tea was the chicken..I'd scraped all the coating off so I only had the meat. I know it still would have been contaminated by the flour somewhat, but I was pretty thorough. That came with some roasties and a salad. I'm surprisingly full considering. 

I've also had a couple of chocolate coated rice snack things. I was checking them out. It said it was around 170 calories for the bag and I only ate two of them so I'm guessing they weren't much each. Other than that I think that's me calorie wise today. Maybe some nibbley things I have forgotten but nothing springs to mind apart from a couple of grapes. I walked the dog tonight too as well as my usual exercise and work on top of that so I'm guessing I should be covered. 

I think maybe cutting down at dinner time is my way forward. I don't ever really know how many calories are in the meals my mum makes. I always guesstimate around 700 but I clearly must be going over somewhere along the line because I've plateaued again. I just need to work a little harder is all.

Right I think that'll do for the night. I'm off to find some cosy pjs and watch me some Walking Dead. I'd only watched the first season previously so I decided to rewatch that and then catch up to whatever is going on now. And I have blasted through it all in about three days! 

For tonight though, good boo!
