So - for lunch today I had:

1 tesco cajun chicken wrap
1 finger of twix fino
half a 500mil bottle of mountain dew (non diet I'm afraid)

1 hour later I was 12.7, and almost falling asleep at my desk 😱😱😱

Even after pizza it wasn't quite that high!

must have been the lettuce in the wrap!
 
Why on earth did you go for such carby food and then drink carbohydrate to wash it down with? (31g carb in an 8 fl oz bottle of the stuff)
 
Oh dear I hope you enjoyed it

I wouldn't normally go for non diet drink, But I love mountain dew, but hate the fact they don't do a diet version over here...
 
Ahhh - I understand now, bloody-mindedness. I know exactly where you were coming from and sympathise. I've been known to do that type of thing meself. Preceded by the words Sod the lot of it - I'm just going to (whatever)

Mind you that nasty old nagging little voice of experience - why does she look and sound exactly like my blooming mother? - is saying, loudly and in a very exasperated tone - You just want to tell her straight - tell her, she's cutting off her nose to spite her face!

When she was alive, if you didn't obey, then she'd have told you instead. Straight.

But the old bat is still doing it!
