The regular follows of this blog will realise there was no update from me yesterday. I had a bad day on the plan which will now be known as the F it day where I completely forgot I was on plan. I started with good intentions had a nice SW friendly fry up for breakfast and cheesy pasta for lunch but just couldn't stop eating crisps and chocolate. In the end my lovely Jen saved me by suggesting I met up with her for a walk/cycle. We covered a fair few miles and whilst it was freezing outside it was good fun. I was hoping that this would break the cycle however I came home and decided that the only thing I wanted was takeaway.
When I got up this morning I decided enough was enough, it's not been easy and there has been some times where I fancied gorging on junk but I did my best today to ensure I was on the wagon. I have managed several litres of water and green tea too. Trying to flush my system a bit.
I got up just after 10am this morning and I had originally planned to make a sweet omelette stuffed with fruit but in the end just went for fruit and natural yogurt.
Good start to the day and once I had eaten this I decided to put some minestrone in the slow cooker. The recipe features on a previous blog and it makes tons.
I decided to have some minestrone for lunch with some ryvita crackerbread and laughing cow cheese washed down with a mug of green tea.
I settled down to an afternoon of not doing much when Jen texted me and said she was going for a bike ride so I decided to join her and take Doug for a big walk. We covered 2.3 miles despite how stupidly cold it was!
Once I got home I decided that a warm bath and rice pudding was needed so I filled up the slow cooker then headed to settle down for a warm bath with my book.
Dinner was relatively easy tonight but good and on plan
I had two linda mccartney rosemary and red onion sausages with broccoli cheese (using low low) mash veg and gravy made from a veg stock pot. It was nice to have an on plan meal and the low low on broccoli was gorgeous.
I finished up my day with rice pudding and banana. I did put a bit of golden syrup on top and it went down well.
I'm back to work tomorrow and hopefully will remain on plan until weigh in now
Night night all xoxo
