Wow, so that didn’t last! Just over a year has passed and I certainly didn’t stick to my promise of losing weight!
The only good thing is that although I didn’t lose weight as such, I was able to enjoy my life and food and not turn into a whale. Just about!
But now I do need to slim down. For real this time!
I’ve just joined Slimming World last Thursday. So far so good, but with a beer festival thrown in (great weekend!), and a meal out with some work friends tomorrow (yum).
As long as I continue to be good and stick to plan in between plans like these, I’ll be on track J It’s the long game that I need to play.
Turmeric veggie soup for lunch today, with 1 chicken breast added (in the entire batch) and a couple small potatoes. Yum and healthy J
Tonight will be chicken curry. I’ve done this recipe before and did enjoy it, but now I’m feeling concerned that it won’t be tasty enough for housemates. It’s no pressure cooking for just Nathan. I guess I could go ahead with it and just warn them and explain the tweaks I could do. Gulp! (Edit: it went down fine, although I won’t feel worried about adding curry paste in future since it’s not actually that bad anyway!)
Monday- healthy. TICK
Tuesday – healthy plus a meal out – Charlie cook sausage casserole (I’ll take my portion for lunch on Friday)
Wednesday – healthy. TICK
Thursday – healthy plus nibbles and champers – weigh in as normal. Get fruit for myself at nibbles.
Friday – healthy then drinks.
I came across an article today about someone who tried drinking bone broth for a week, my favourite part was when she said “Maybe bone broth works as a weight-loss tool because you don’t want to drink it so you just don’t eat anything.” Hehehe.
