    Hi all and welcome to the new folk :)

    Bit of a tough one for me today but entirely my own doing as I made a big New york baked Cheesecake yesterday to bring into work today ;) I only had one slice which was 1/12th of the whole thing but I sat down with the recipe and worked out the cals and it was a whopping 506!!!!! So I've been quite restricted on what else I can have today as I wiped out most of my allowance in one hit!

    B: Bran Flakes & skimmed milk

    L: HM chilli and brown rice

    D: HM roasted veg lasagne and salad with small piece of HM focaccia

    S: The cheesecake of doom but it was delicious :) and a pear

    Really need to get strict and not have things like that for a while until I'm fully under control again :)

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    I've generally been pretty good today, with one lapse just before dinner:

    Breakfast - two slices HM granary bread with butter and honey; banana
    Snack - handful of dried fruit and nuts
    Lunch - brie and salami sandwich; tomato, lettuce and olive side-salad
    Dinner - bowl of prawn crackers :o; pork and veg curry, veg dahl, naan bread and a couple of mini onion bhajis

    I think the diet is working on the whole, though, as I lost another kilo last week despite my eating being all over the place for most of the week.

    floyd - your cheesecake sounds lovely - I'm so glad it's nowhere near me! ;)
    Back after a very long break!

    Back on the wagon this week - had a rubbish week last week due mainly to tiredness from sleepless nights with chicken poxy daughter!

    Have gained a pound which isn't too bad all things considered, and the house is now clear of temptation again.

    Baked some muffins yest for ds's lunch box and realised purely by chance they are relatively low fat and sugar so they might be a good standby sweet treat for me too (eta have just woked out the calorie content of the muffins at 125 each - not bad at all)

    So far today

    mini shredded wheat, ss milk and tea
    banana muffin and pear for snack
    leftover pizza for lunch,
    pork stir fry with loads of veg and small portion of rice for dinner

    newlywed do you know if you can freeze the recipe for the Tuscan Bean soup?

    It's not one I've made - just a recipe I've seen and had my eye on :o However, I think most soups are ok frozen, apart from those with cream in (which I don't do anyway).


    So far today:

    b: just right and oat milk, two cuppas
    s: four digestives
    l: bacon roll
    d: low fat dusted cod with rustic oven chips.


    Bit stressed today, interview this afternoon and another one tomorrow.

    Might keep myself occupied by making low fat nana muffins.
