Well, I stepped on those scales at Slimming World ands, to my delight, I had lost one and a half pounds and am now dead on my target weight again. I'm so pleased about that. It's small steps this festive season but so far, so good.
Today's meals:
One healthy extra B
A rather tatty but nonetheless delicious toastie with a very feeble 'salad'. I was still rather full from breakfast.
Another healthy extra B, one healthy extra A and one and a half syns for the onion chutney.
I made the fish cakes by roughly mashing a cooked potato, adding softened chopped onion, cheese, garlic granules and mustard powder plus two sardines. Very tasty with salad and some salad cream - because potato and salad cream go so, so well together!
One healthy extra A and two syns.
Summary:
two healthy extra As
two healthy Bs
three and a half syns
Not a particularly heart healthy menu today.
Tomorrow's meal plans:
B: oat waffles, fruit and yogurt
L: leek and potato soup
D: chicken pasta bake, salad; fruit
Exercise: an online something.
Just back from a few days away with “iffy” internet access. There’s nothing quite like coming back to one’s own bed! I was in time to get weighed in at SW and wasn’t expecting great things but a gain of one pound was gratefully taken! I’ve got The Good Food Show at the NEC tomorrow (eek…..all those tasters) so have decided that from Monday to Thursday I’m going to have an SP week. Friday is a 4 course Christmas lunch (eek again). It’s so hard at this time of year BUT how glad I am to have great family and friends.
ReplyDeleteToo right. 'East, west, home's best' as the saying goes. The first night back home really helps me to count my blessings and appreciate what I have.
DeleteOne pound on is brilliant - good for you!
How lovely to be going to the Good Food Show, Have an amazing time and remember, syns don't could if you are standing up!
Yes, it's a tricky time of year. I have all my foody specials listed and at all other times I will be strictly on plan - apart from today, maybe.
You are right - having loads of festive specials to go to makes us so very lucky. So, so fortunate.
