Hi all
Phew life seems to be very busy at the moment & accompanying my much less than usual appetite is a lack of routine which means that I'm not only not eating proper meals but I'm buying (& eating) the odd bar of chocolate too. In truth nothing too terrible and no more than two a day - even then I haven't finished the second one but still.................
I've the perfect opportunity this week as I'm working tomorrow & Tuesday, then off Wednesday for 'Yom Tov cooking' (Jewish new year cooking for the uninitiated!) and Thursday & Friday is New Year so I'll be at home (or out - eating!!)
Did a huge shop yesterday - some ingredients for cooking and some for us but I'm just not as organised as usual and it is quite disconcerting.
We went out to friends for dinner last night & had a lovely time but I drank a lot (for me!!) and the dinner was delicious but definitely not SW-friendly.
Started off with Bellinis (Prosecco & peach juice - mmmmmmmm) - avoided the crisps - then we sat down to eat. First course was blinis with smoked salmon & marscapone, and smoked aubergine - had to have one of each it would have been rude not to!
Main course was steamed Sea Bream fillets with boiled potatoes & mange-tout accompanied by a couple of glasses of Beaujolais and lots of water. Interestingly the water had fresh mint leaves and lime chunks in it - made it delicious so I'm going to try that at home.
Dessert was tarte tatin - I had a small piece (no cream) followed by another small piece - which made up a medium size piece but it was delicious :)
Mint tea to follow and no chocs - so was a bit controlled where I could be :0)
Then today I was on a course this morning & got up quite early but had no breakfast or lunch - came home at 3.30(ish) after lots of son-chauffeuring duties and had a punnet of raspberries and a Chinese flavour Mug Shot - have drunk lots of water but ate nothing else & I'm not really hungry.
Cooking a tongue at the moment so will probably have that for supper with some salad.
Probably going to weigh tomorrow morning & go into work late as I have a meeting after work that starts at 7 and is near the office. Will be glad if I stay the same as I think last week's loss was a bit of a fluke and my eating has been very random so have no idea how I've done.
Anyway - hope you are enjoying the weekend.
