Thursday, 20-02-25

Hi, everyone!  Welcome to my blog where I talk about my ongoing Slimming World and associated health journeys.  At present, I am working to reduce my 'bad' cholesterol through diet, particularly using the Mediterranean way of eating.

Weigh day tomorrow morning and, as always, I have no idea.  It would be wonderful to lose 2lbs and be back in my happy zone again but, at this point, it is a big ask and, apart from the paying side of things, I am fine with whatever those scales throw at me.
I'm enjoying what I am eating, it is almost all good, home cooked stuff or quality - those Cooks ready meals don't contain anything that would make them ultra processed and I do with they had some sort of cookery book that showcased their meals.
What I ate today:

The usual, the fruit being raspberries, apple and melon.  
Part of a healthy extra B for mixed seeds - I forgot to soak the chia seeds in advance.
This was so filling.  To be fair, it was a big chunk of fish, smoked cod, I think.  It was really nice and I ought to have it more often.
Four syns for garlic infused evoo

Later on, I had some slices of melon - now it is cut, it needs using up!

Dinner was the last of the liver and bacon ready meals.  I will get some more at some point but not this month as I've just picked up another order.
I had an orange for afters.
Four and a half syns.

Summary:
no healthy extra As - ooops
part of a healthy extra B
eight and a half syns
Tomorrow's plans:

B:  fruit, yogurt and seeds

L:  prawn noodles with mango and coconut; fruit
This is the ready meal I didn't have on Tuesday and I was looking forward to trying it so here it is!

D:  Very definitely off plan this evening, just for once.  Dave and Anna are over and I am doing cheesy potato topped chicken and leek pie with vegetables and a roulade for dessert (bought for Christmas and never used)
There Will Be Wine (imagine the voice of doom!)

Exercise:  rest day
