Hello all
Excuse me for being rubbish, as i am sure you can imagine, leaving a job is a busy time! I finished Friday - sad times. But luckily have two weeks off now! Planning on sorting out lots of freezer meals for when i start shift work. I am also going on a short break to see a friend in Ireland. Really looking forward to that.
The last couple of weeks I have been a bit meh with food - you know when tonnes of events happen at once?
lots of birthdays, meals with friends, leaving doos etc.
I have tried to make.up for it.with lots of gym time - but i think I may have a.serious problem with my shoulder and going mental on the equipment and weights isn't helping!
Still, making healthy decisions and planning where I can.
Also, when you finish a vlcd -does anyone else feel,like me, that you find you are constantly waiting for the moment that the weight goes back on, you know? My mind still isnt in a state of outright belief that I am 8 stone. But a friend reminded me today that i finished Cambridge in April, four months ago. I have now been maintaining for as long as I did Cambridge and my weight hasn't fluctuated by more than a few pounds. I need to bring the mind inside the body and remember I am doing ok, and have a healthier way of life now but can still enjoy treats without waking up 3 stone heavier the next day.
Anyway, here are some recent food pics, including the amazing afternoon tea put on for my leaving do.
Pics include: teriyaki prawns and vermicelli noodles, wholemeal cheese and basil swirls, tuna fishcake with pakchoi, mushroom and asparagus tagliatelle with homemade pesto, tofu with sprouting broccoli, homemade Mexican beans with sweet potato, pavalova, and chicken stuffed with feta and mushrooms with lemon courgettes.
