My Diet - Day 14

I am very proud of myself for not succumbing to the food and drink at the party last night, can't say the same for my OH as he had a large white bap filled with pork & stuffing (Hog Roast) plus he had several cans of John Smiths. But hopefully 1 day's lapse won't be too detrimental to his weight loss.

It was lovely having the Tandoori Chicken & Salad takeaway yesterday but the restaurant didn't open til 5.30pm and we were meeting my cousin to go to the party at 7pm. I think the food arrived by 6.15pm so I did feel a little rushed which in a way spoilt it a bit.

Sunday 30th September 2012

Today's menu

Breakfast: 2 Fried Eggs (using spray oil) with 3 slices of Ham (in my case also fried)

Lunch: 2 Large Slices Roast Beef sprinkled with rosemary & chives acompanied with Dukan Mayo

Dinner: Baked Turkey Meatballs and Chocolate Mousse for dessert



Snack: Chocolate Mousse

The chocolate mousse was so delicious, the other day when I made it, I just had to make it again.

I have chosen not to take my walk today, I planned to walk at least an extra 5 minutes each day this week to accommodate Sunday and I managed it, so a rest day today, listening to John Lennon & Paul McCartney music :)  oh and Elvis (my OH is now playing his music).

I feel really good, my clothes fit me nicely again, I feel happy, no indigestion for 2 weeks now, no headaches, no bloating I'm actually enjoying this diet, I seriously don't feel restricted, eating protein every other day doesn’t bother me as I know I'll be eating vegetables on the in-between days.

Well that's the end of week 2 - Weigh Day tomorrow.

My Diet - Day 12

I made a slight change to my walking plan today, I was intending to do it during my 3pm break at work, but instead went out early in the morning before I started work. I didn't want to get to later in the day and something come up which would mean I didn't get to go out. So ... my walk today was 2.2 miles burning 169 calories over 37.41minutes.

I've probaly burnt off more than that with all the work I've done today, my back is aching - argghh!!

I didn't weigh myself this morning, I resisted the urge.

So ... todays menu

Friday 28th September 2012

Breakfast: Vanilla Oat Bran Porridge, Cup of tea

Lunch: Scotch eggs



Dinner: Grilled Salmon with herbs

Snack: Chocolate Mousse


Almost ate it before I got a picture, I am quite proud of this mousse, I've never made one before, and it came out brilliant, tasted delicious and I will definitely be making that again.

Another PV day tomorrow, but the tricky part is I'm off to a party in the evening, so really hope I am not tempted to eat wrong foods or drink alcohol. I am ordering an Indian takeaway to eat before the party, probably, tandoori chicken & salad, so that I am not hungry when I go out.

We shall see how that pans out ...
