Week 8- Merry Xmas and happy new year celebrations

I came back from group feeling disappointed in myself because I had a 3lb gain ouch! It's like the last 3 good weeks I have had have been deleted. Maybe it's because I had my tea before going and I don't normally do that, or it could be I have had 4 days since last weigh in and not enough time to undo the badness I have consumed, or it's possible that it's due to me me being a greedy cow!

I am trying to stay on plan by making a food planner for the festive week, hopefully I will stick to it as much as possible.

When I have been good I'm good but then I have gone abit mental with the drinks and eating out. I kept a half hearted diary just to note what I eat when I went out but not everything that has past my lips is in there.

I have had things like wetherspoons chicken and pulled pork burger but not eaten the chips it comes with. I had a Thai meal at a restaurant. Nandos chicken. Takeaway curry and Chinese shredded duck pancakes. And as I say lots of beer and wine, so all in all a good Xmas!

I got a new cook book for Xmas and I have tried a few recipes.

My boyfriend has got an obsession with curries. And I must say they tasted very authentic I tried to adjust slightly to make it more sw friendly.

And some of the things I made Xmas week. As you can see I made a full English breakfast with the fat cut off the bacon, low syn sausages, fried eggs made in fry light and same with mushrooms, free beans and tomatoes. HEB toast with a little butter.

My Xmas dinner with roast veggies roasted in fry light, boiled sprouts, skinless chicken breast and one small Yorkshire pudding and stuffing ball.

I have been eating a lot of omlettes of late, I love them above is a couple of examples of the ingredients with the finished artical below.

Following Tuesday, after having a nandos meal, I went to weigh in and put on 1lb. Well it was expected.

We got our new packs also with the SP roll out that sound very good. I relaxed for a couple of days after with NYE being Wednesday. After that I have been on it.

Lots of prepping ...

 

And this is what I have been eating since Friday ...

Shepherds pie with swede and carrot mash.

Homemade chicken curry and rice.

Full English breakfast.

Steak with homemade salsa, peas and new potatoes that was finishes in a frying pan.

So I am being good now, back to normal and I am aiming for 3lb off on Thursday.
