Went to see the hologram ABBA show thing yesterday. Very good but pretty expensive for something that's essentially an immersive film screening... Got the walking in with it though, and stayed a decent whack under calories which I felt was needed after Saturday.

I wonder if those shows will become more common as the big name singers die of old age...

 

Really wouldn't surprise me. It was all a bit creepy anyway tbh, them living young forever...

Worked from home and managed to get the walking with lunch shopping and then pilates later. Also managed to get my weights in before going to pilates which is always nice! Starting at a new venue with chorus today which is 3 miles walk from work rather than 2.5 - also has the benefit of being one quick tube line for if it's peeing it down!

Walk to the new chorus venue was fine but a bit boring - navigating the tourists wasn't amazing either, so might look into a more scenic route. Other than that, standard Tuesday but I possibly went a smidge over calories, but if I did it was minimal.

Swift update as today's been rammo (at least managed a quick cycle at lunch!) - met up with old work colleagues yesterday and went to Mercato Metropolitano which has a ridic amount of food and drink, so I ate and drank! Got a veggie burger with gorgonzola, and a cheese toastie on the side, yuhmmm. A few craft beers as well too, so feeling slightly worse for wear today!

A little hungover yester but wfh so not too bad. Went to the theatre to see Dear Evan Hansen before it closed - had no idea what it was about and although I enjoyed and glad I went,

 

Spoiler

I couldn't really get past the 'boy lies to get in girl's pants' vibe... 

 

Otherwise, went to Nandos for dinner beforehand so stayed in calories. Have woken up feeling a bit cold-y and also the weekend plans have been cancelled as those we were visiting are both ill too. Kinda bummed about that, but also kinda glad I don't have to spend a couple of hours driving. Also now I have zero plans for the weekend which I HATE at short notice :( I did manage to get that cycle in (and one today - just need to walk after work!)

I'm also a bit gutted that I won't have the excuse for overeating and drinking that I was expecting this weekend... I definitely don't enjoy calorie counting when I have a cold, even if I don't feel hungry etc.

Hope the cold is short lived and you have a good weekend despite the change in plans.

 

Thanks - I'm still a bit under the weather but not too bad. There was a quartet rehearsal I couldn't previously make which I'm now going to go along to (I checked they were ok me coming and also double checked it isn't covid) so that's a nice thing to do today. Also might be a good excuse to bust out my singing mask again! Felt a bit down yesterday eve though because of the plan changes and ate some leftover freezer pizza and a huge amount of chocolate. And a nice beer... I don't feel that bad about it though, they were nice chocolates and beer 😅

What's a singing mask? Is it a mask that does the singing for you?

Not gonna say you're wrong since that vibe is very much based on his actions... But I feel like there's still supportive messages for people who feel overwhelmed by life and by society's expectations, and there is character growth happening through the story amid the bad teenager decisions.

Haha, this would be good! It's just one with extra space so when you breathe in quickly it doesn't suck up into your mouth... I made it for going back to chorus post-pandemic. It also looks like you have beak 😅

Yes, it definitely made me remember how awful some of teenage years were and had valuable lessons on loneliness and societal/familial pressures. Some very powerful songs in it too!

 

I accidentally went over calories yesterday as I forgot to put my toast in... Added today and it was 140 over, sigh.

Office day yester was lovely with the team in, tube delays meant I got off a stop closer to work, and post-work-sort-of-leaving-drinks meant I got the tube to singing. Pretty sure I cobbled together 2.5 miles across the day though.

Another office day so we could quartet afterwards (we use my office as it's central!) so got the walking in but no chance for extra exercise.  One of them brought madeleines which I love, but it would have put me over calories, so I was strong and held off.

Found out today that my weekend plans have been cancelled again 😩 (was supposed to be dancing at Scala emo night until the wee hours, then recovering Saturday!) so I'm desperately trying to claw around for someone to hang out with me...

I hope  some fun plans for the weekend are able to happen

 

Thanks! I found one friend who I don't have to book months in advance so hopefully will have a wander round with her, and then I can get some much-needed singing recording done - I arranged a Christmas song at the start of the year, have made a video, but still need to actually record the sounds :D

 

I'm on leave next week, woo! Have plans to meet a few people, and then we're going to a spa hotel overnight one day so I've booked afternoon tea and a fancy massage, and then we get access to the pool, jacuzzi, sauna and steam rooms while we're there. Obv will overeat, but pretty sure my challenge will still pass with that, even if it is both days.

Oooh that sounds lovely, assuming the overeating will be after the massage and pool!

 

Umm actually it's afternoon tea and then massage, but 12:30 and then 4pm so shouldn't be too bad...!

Quicky quick update, mostly sitting yesterday but walk to charity shops as I tend to do on my free weekend days! I did eat a bunch of chocolate, but it was all in calories and I wanted it.

Met a friend to wander the sculptures in Regent's Park yester, lovely sunny day out. Counting calories is tough when you're out and about but thankfully I'm happy to estimate.
