Day 83 (sorry it's a bit late)

Hi all
Hope you are having a lovely weekend.
This is day 83's blog (yesterday in other words) as I got in too late last night to write anything coherent (that is, of course, assuming anything I write is coherent!!)

After day 82's fat experiences I woke up much more positive yesterday morning.
Fancied something 'different' for breakfast so had porridge with semi-skimmed milk and blueberries with a black coffee & a large glass of sf squash.

Then Dom & I went to shul - interestingly saw several people I haven't seen for a while who seemed to be able to see a difference in me which is really reassuring as I suspect I look at myself much more critically than other people do - don't we all??
Also several people who are reading my blog - thank you so much for your kind words :-)

After shul came home and made lunch for Dom & Andrew - beigels for both. Sooo tempted to have one too - nothing like a smoked salmon & cream cheese beigel in my opinion. I did resist because
1. We were going out to dinner, and
2. I don't feel like I'm having a 'great' week and blowing it with all those sins didn't seem worthwhile somehow - does this mean I'm beginning to exhibit common sense??

So instead I made a salad which looked so pretty I took a picture of it!!



It tasted good too - however o must remember to drizzle the balsamic vinegar before putting on the HB eggs :-)

Usual stuff Saturday afternoon, Waitrose, washing, listened to football & caught up on Eastenders - mourned the second defeat of the season. Being a Leeds United supporter isn't easy but someone has to do it!!

In the evening we went to friends for dinner. Had such a lovely evening with people we don't often see socially - lovely food and great company (Ruth & Graham, Yvonne & Trevor - thanks for a great time).
Anyway we had a lovely meal

Caesar salad with homemade Caesar dressing (light and delicious)
Salmon baked in honey dressed with fruit & a honey dressing with tabouleh, a mixed salad with raspberry & pomegranate dressing and a very small spoonful of potato salad.
Dessert was fresh fruit - strawberries, water melon, blueberries and cherries

Also had half a glass of Rose & lots of diet Coke too.

Did pass on the beautiful looking fruit filled roulade, the homemade cherry tomato quiche and the croutons on the Caesar salad (so virtuous!!) - but was absolutely stuffed :-)

So that was my Saturday.
Xx
