Week 5 feeling good

I am rather pleased with myself this week. At group last week I said I was aiming for 2lb off and that's just what I did and bonus, I got slimmer of the week. There wasn't many there but it's still encouraging to be rewarded. Now I am 13.35st and I'm going for another 2lb for next week.

Here is how I did it...

Breakfasts, just been a quick bowl of weetabix crunchy bran with skimmed milk before I have set off to work.

Snacks have been lots of fruit orange, banana, apple, grapes.

Lunch, all week I have been having soup. I made the massive pan full last Sunday. Sweet potato and swede curry flavour with tomato onions and lentils in there. 

It was nice but did get boring.

Dinner...

Shepherds pie with lots of peas and carrots. 

I made slow cooked pulled pork, I got the recipe from s/w website served with a/w chips and salad.

I made my chicken carbonara with peas and leeks but I wasn't keen on that, it's was a bit bland.

Then we made keema curry and I scoffed that with uncle bens rice when I got back from weigh in.

One of my favourite things to eat is a nice big omlette. I made one on Saturday and it was really filling.

Firstly fried off the bacon bits and mushrooms in a pan with fry light. I beat up 3 eggs with a bit of water, salt and pepper. Poured that in the pan added some fresh chopped tomatoes, let that cook a little, topped with 45g mozzarella (HEA) and then grilled until browned. And I eat the whole lot! Lovely.

This next week, I am making another pan of soup. I bought a recipe book from group so I am trying out some recipes. I am intending to have fruit and yogurt for breakfast and saving my heathy extras for later in the day. Let's see how it goes.
