Welcome to Jo's Diner!

fedupandskint

I'm here recovering from my feeling very unfit run - boo - need to feel like I can do it again!

So wasn't helped by a bowl of crunchy nut cornflakes for breakfast to make me feel energy depleted on the run

1 banana when I came back home

Lunch is leftover soup chicken and veg and rice and lentil mixture

Snack is slice of choc and orange cake

Tea is pork cop, potatoes, veg and apple sauce

and maybe an orange at some point to use it up from the zesting!

I am looking into a sun ancon chi machine and I have posted a request on Health and Beauty MSE.

I have tried it, well only for 10 minutes and to be honest I think you would be better off with yoga lessons. A mat and DVD or even going to lessons is much cheaper and give you more overall effect.

Feeling better, not sad or upset or down, just running on low energy levels so even than I am feeling that I am making big fuss over nothing it is much needed rest.

And what a weekend it has been when it comes to food!!!

Loooovely chicken and cheese sarnies for lunch yesterday. Then in the evening roast pork with roasted potatoes, and other roasted veggies, sprouts and peas and then pavlova for pudding. Today lunch was grilled steak (grilled to perfection it was sooo soft and delicious) with roasted pots, roasted parsnips and boiled carrots and peas. Pudding apple pie with ice cream. And tea was freshly cooked gammon on granary roll and pickled beetroot. Pudding chocolate cake. Oooooh yum... And I didn't cook any of that stuff

Good to hear you're not too bad marru. Enjoy the rest!

I had a slab of braised steak with onions tonight (very yummy and needed less attention by doing it in the oven) with boulangere potatoes, broccoli and cauliflower.

I'm ahead of myself today as I've got brother and SIL coming tomorrow. They're very faddy eaters IMO so I've got a traditional cottage pie all ready in the fridge, vegetables prepared and trifles for pudding.

Hello - where are you all?

Tonight tea garlic bread with roasted chicken, pudding chocolate brownie pudding with ice cream (from c00p). Yum yum. It would have been nice with some boiled carrots but wanted something very quick.

:wave: I'm still here but been trying to supress talking about food. I've been doing Slimming World but it hasn't been a good week. Too many social occasions with nonSW food on offer.

Back on the wagon tonight with smoked haddock, sweet potato wedges, tomatoes, mushrooms and peas. Another meal out tomorrow at a new restaurant so will post when I'm back!

Still here!

Just noshing lemon & coriander Couscous for lunch with grated cheese and toasted seeds. Got a wholemeal pitta with that, and will follow up with a mandarin & and apple, and a handful of my new food obsession - roasted soya beans!
Dinner tonight will be beef stew which I will throw into the slow cooker in a while.

Is Jo OK?

Hmm should it be onion soup, rice or a jacket spud for a late lunch?
