today it seems easier to eat food that is doing me good, or I think it's doing me good. Porridge with a teaspoon of golden syrup, the porridge made with water, because they're good oats it's a lovely texture and I can't believe how much I'm enjoying it. Dinner was carrot and parsnip soup (yummy do you want the recipe?) with a slice of wholemeal bread.
supper was a biscuit and a pink lady apple.
A few coffees with skimmed milk and just one sugar.
I don't know if what I am eating is good or not, but it's just what I fancy.
Yesterday it was salad with pilchards.
Balsamic dressing is the magic thing in making things taste good but with no fat :o)
I managed again to avoid chocolate - I really am amazed at myself, it's harder to stop chocolate than it was for me to stop smoking.
I made scones for the children and I didn't have any.
watched 'supersize, superskinny me' on channel 4. The girl on there was only 6 and a half stone, she ate microamounts - I can't imagine eating so little.
My friend helps run weight watchers, it seems good , has anyone tried it? I can't afford the fee for going, I need my money for other things. Life on a tight budget is demanding as it is, trying to eat low fat, low sugar things on a low budget is a real challenge.
Are there any recipies that do healthy and cheap , that's my next task then.

I'm an expert (;-)) from early childhood on healthy but cheap! You want me to write you a menu? ... it's a great idea too to be getting all the family on the healthy eating plan (if you didn't already) ... read We Want Real Food ... (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Want-Real-Food-Graham-Harvey/dp/1845292677/ref=pd_bbs_sr_5?ie=UTF8&s=gateway&qid=1201604841&sr=8-5)
ReplyDeletethat'll convince you it isn't just you that needs to give up the crap!
You also don't want to be cooking a la carte for everyone and you can eat normal stuff. If you want to eat more healthily Slimming World really encourages that. However, the fee is prohibitive. But you could buy their cookery books ... here is one that I have that is great, and full of really healthy recipes "Fast Food Cookery": http://www.amazon.co.uk/Slimming-World-Fast-Food/dp/009188537X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=gateway&qid=1201605011&sr=8-1
(I want to know how to put active links in here! I tell you what ... I'm about to post, so I'll put them in my post).
