move went well
just got back on t'interwebz tonight though. can't use MFP on just the phone, it insists on trying to synch online, so i've been using a piece of paper and a pen to tally my eats... i think i'm doing something right, because despite being sick as a dog and scoffing a 250g bag of maltesers in pure self-pity, i managed another loss this week
will be updating MFP with the week just gone tomorrow sometime, depending on what else we have going on - it's our 1 year anniversary tomorrow so we're having a bit of a to-do

we had a lovely time on saturday - met up with some folks at a local pub (though their child friendly policy isn't that friendly and we won't be going there again with wee'uns) and then took people back to ours for chilli and baked potatoes, which went down a storm!
decided that i CBA writing the week's food in MFP, so just starting afresh... though i was bad last night and made a huge curry meal for the two of us that could have easily fed 4 comfortably. i must remember that bigger portions don't mean i love you more

dry fry the chicken and bacon til crisp - use fry light, works a treat, and drain off excess liquid from the chicken and bacon to get a really crisp finish. toss over some lettuce and mixed leaves and add your dressing. you could finish off with baby plum tomatoes, diced avocado, baby mozzarella balls, chopped bell pepper...
brekkie: toast and marmalade
lunch: toast and pate, toast and marmalade
dinner: hairy biker bolognese with cabbage, lighter choices garlic bread slices, and i improvised a coleslaw as i cut far too much cabbage to go with the bolognese!
extras: coffee

brekkie: ryvita and pate, ryvita and ham with little bit of cream cheese and pickle
lunch: snatched a boiled egg from tonight's dinner
dinner: american style potato salad (made with boiled eggs, potatoes, onion and extra light mayo), green salad
snacks etc: coffees, muller light greek yoghurt, 2 more ryvita with ham n stuff as i was low on calories and a little peckish
am still registering as a smiiiiiidge below 1200, but i'm not feeling it.

sorry donna, forgot to answer!
the HB bolognese is ok, mine is better works out to the same calories, give or take.
brekkie: 2 ham and pickle ryvita, 2 toast and marmalade
lunch: a sneaky slice of starbucks chocolate and nut loaf (330 cals of nomminess)
dinner: pasta bake with salad, had seconds of the pasta bake
snacks/etc: 2 tall skinny caramel macciato from starbucks, my usual coffees.

See that's what I was thinking, we all love my bolognese and I think its 199 cals per portion - so I was thinking is it worth trying HB recipe - I won't bother now
OMG that American pot salad sounds lovely - going to have to try that never thought of putting eggs in it before!
Have fab weekend x

you too!
today, i mostly ate banana loaf. i usually make it into cupcakes, but this time i used a loaf tin and just cut it into the same number of pieces there would have been cupcakes.
brekkie: toast and marmalade
lunch: banana loaf
dinner: chicken stew with gnocchi
snacks: copious quantities of banana loaf, coffees
i was able to offset the banana loaf with some cycling though!

brekkie: the last two pieces of banana loaf
lunch: pulled bbq beef roll with green salad and baby plum tomatoes
dinner: chicken stew and gnocchi
snacks etc: coffees, muller light greek style to top up on calories.
low again today, but still not feeling it. didn't make the weigh-in on friday because the car was in the garage, but getting a new patient medical tomorrow so will get an idea of how much i've lost then. not an accurate idea, as it is happening in the evening (after brekkie and lunch), but it scratches my weigh-in itch!
