Good morning.
Thank goodness, the temperature has moderated and we have rain - actually right now as well as overnight. It feels much fresher and more pleasant right now; a huge relief.
Today's plans are:
B: banana oat pancakes, fruit and yogurt
My friend is going home today and, as she loved the banana pancakes, I'm making another batch for breakfast.
SW: three and a half syns for the oats - I am synning them as I want my healthy extra B at lunch.
L: wrap pizza, salad
I'll make the sauce with herbs and tomato puree and the topping will be bacon, onion, pepper, mushroom and baby corn
SW: one healthy extra B (the wrap), and one or two As for the cheese on top. If I have salad dressing, it will be one syn for two tbsps.
D: salmon, chips, roasted tomatoes or tomato salad
I have a number of salad tomatoes that need using up so I will either roast them or I might make a tomato salad with finely sliced onion and balsamic vinegar. The chips will be SW home made, of course.
SW: free as I will lay off any dressing this meal
Ss: water and fruit
BM: It's cooler again so I might go for a walk - I'll see what it is like later on. I can't this morning as my friend is not leaving until midday.
The weigh in yesterday was appalling. However, I am not sure it was accurate as this morning I am four pounds less again which is more or less where I thought I should be. I know - different scales, etc, but usually they are very close, mine and the ones at the group so . . . I don't know.
Four and a half pounds on. Oh, my! I've done nothing to support such a huge gain but maybe the extreme heat (at one point in the afternoon, Writtle was the hottest place in the country at just under 38C) caused some fluid retention. I don't know, but I shall keep a close eye on things this week and I am sure I haven't really gained all that much so, although it was a shock, I'm not upset or downcast about it, just determined.
As I finish this, it is still raining and - oh, there's a flash of lightning. No wonder it feels fresher. Good-oh - bring it on!
I had some of your lovely banana oat pancakes for breakfast this morning. I felt full until 6pm. I shall be having them again tomorrow with a spoonful of yoghurt and a few blueberries.
ReplyDeleteThat's brilliant. I'm so pleased you liked them, thanks for letting me know.
