Becktoria's simply filling food diary

[Atomic pink]

Oooh lush and easy - that's my kind of food! I haven't tried these roasting bag things before but they seem really popular with people so I might have to try them. Do you just get them in the supermarket?

Smug feeling is totally justified so enjoy it

Ooh not had gnocchi in ages really fancy some now! X

 

[Atomic pink]

Yesterday looks like a really good day in the end.

Also a big "mmmmmmm" to the gnocchi. Its one of my favourites. Especially predictably when served with a stilton sauce (there is a theme with my favourites - things that involve blue cheese). I keep thinking about making some pumkkin/ bns gnocchi which I think would taste great and you would only need to point the egg and tiny bit of flour used to bind. It sometimes feels a bit like "cheating" to use bns in place of potato though - is this just me??

 

[Becktoria79]

I've been a bit nibbly today. Ended up having 3 crumpets and also a couple of biscuits but should only use a couple of weeklies.
Hurt my ankle during an incident at work. Hoping it's just a bit of bruising, not in real pain and didnt notice anything while it was happening, but tender to walk on so thought best not risk the gym. Gonna have a lovely bath after tea and hopefully tomorrow it'll be fine.

I think the BNS gnocchi idea is great! I don't make my own gnocchi so if you could post a recipe that would be great! X

 

[Atomic pink]

Hope your ankle is ok.

Don't have a gnocchi recipe as yet, its usually just a case of keeping the mash as dry as possible (I microwave or steam rather than boil), season, add an egg and as little flour as you can to bind it together trying to work it as little as possible. I will try it out over the next few weeks and let you know whether it works.

Thanks atomic. I'm having a cheese nightmare! I've eaten 3 slices of mature cheddar! I really want to eat and eat tonight! I've yet to have tea so hopefully it'll be ok after that! X

 

[sarah88]

Keep up the good work beck, I think there's a big case of the Munchies going around!

 

[Becktoria79]

There certainly seems to be! Well I'm off in bath and bed before I eat any more!

[Jaly]

Well done for pointing it and not giving up xx

 

[icklerockchick]

Hope your ankle is ok and hope your munchy day is gone by morning I hate days like that! X

 

[Becktoria79]

Thanks Laura. Sure it'll be fine, just got a couple of little kicks but feels ok.
Yesterday's point usage was annoying. Such a waste! However new day today. Got a week off coming up (hurray) so it can go either of 2 ways. I'm completely organised and dead good or I eat for England! I'm planning to go to my granfma's for 2 days so there's another challenge. Really gotta pull my finger out though.

Today at school the kids are having a jubilee breakfast, basically a big fry up. Staff were asked what they wanted, didn't want to not have anything as kids excited so opted for beans on toast as know there is no frying involved! Lunch is roasted veg and goats cheese salad and tea is a stir fry I think so hopefully I can avoid munchies and be on plan. Gonna try gym too if ankle still ok by end of day. X

3 slices of mature cheddar is a divine cheese dream rather than a nightmare surely??

Sounds like you did really well despite the munchies and with the temptation of a fry up this morning. I also find time off work rather hit or miss - sometimes I seem to have so much more will power when not at work and can organise things properly and then others the lack of routine when not at work completely throws me off.

 

[Becktoria79]

Not having a good evening at all. The sweet tooth has kicked in and got a bit silly in the shop! I did however throw a pack of biscuits in the bin on the way home having already shoved 3 in my gob! I hate to waste food but didn't really like them and knew I'd have ate the rest! I've had a little tub of Ben and jerrys and half a bag of galaxy counters! Oh no! X

Oh no beck, don't worry have u pointed it? Well done on throwing the biscuits! Again today is hard for me! I don't no what's wrong with us! R the galaxy counters nice, I'm not sure I've even tried them!

 

[Becktoria79]

I'm not sure Sarah! I'm just really struggling this week. I've not pointed today. I'm binning the rest of the choc and try to behave. Just done an online shop and will have as good a week as possible. The counters are just like them flat chocolates in revels! Nice!
I'm at a bridal shower tomorrow night which will involve booze and probably food. Gah. Still could be a lot worse I guess. Xxx

[icklerockchick]

Well done on having the restraint to get rid of the biscuits! Try not to worry about it too much sometimes we all just need a few days not entirely on plan to help us focus again x
