Well, only just! But this morning it's quite chilly, I feel rather miffed, I'm not quite ready for this weather yet! <pouts> <stamps feet>
So anyway, the week was a success - I seem to be fitting back into strict eating fairly well. Though the few tiny snacks I had (little bit of low fat feta and pinched a couple of sweet potato chips from the girls on Friday) have strengthened my resolve to stay super strict during the week. I'm not planning on weighing myself until my clothes are way, way looser as it would be too disheartening (for the time being anyway).
I adapted a recipe for stuffed peppers I found online - I used extra lean beef, onions, quinoa and seasoning (also a dash of BBQ sauce), and layered that in the pepper with feta cheese - turned out quite delicious. I served that with brocollini and sweet potato chips (Waitrose has finally brought some out in their Love Life range, and they are scrummy!) Last night (sunday) we had tacos, and I am very much enjoying the added sweetcorn.
I will try to write up a list/add things to my recipe folder when they work out well. Until I reach a decent size/weight, I will steer clear of things like pasta bakes, takeaway etc. Then, as stated in earlier posts, I'll be very strict during the week and eat what I like of a weekend!
The girls are learning words very quickly now; we sat down with them with their words book last night, and tried out words they know, and some new ones. Lizzy has developed a habit of saying, 'ugger!'.....I'm really hoping it's now what I think it is! hehe... James did a huge big cycle ride on Saturday, so the girls and I watched 'Spirited Away' - they seemed to really enjoy it, though of course they're a bit young yet to get it.
