Food today looks fab!

Hiya! Thank you, I've found it enjoyable to be honest. I never thought I would say that about any healthy eating plan, but ww'ers has surprised me.
The fact I have flexibility to eat what I want makes it easier to stick to x

 

[Hazykay]

Dinner sounds very yummy :0)

It beat me. This is the first time I haven't finished my meal, it was too much!!

 

[Jaly]

Yeah I agree, I enjoy the fact I can choose my own meals instead of being told what to eat It feels like a bit of a 'game' rather than a diet at times, lol! and I don't feel deprived which is good!

Wow! Think of all those activity points earned from all that walking! Dinner looks fab, not really thought of incorporating apples into veg before tbh Subway, mmm, not had one in ages!

I know, but I would be eating the points just for the sake of eating them. I'm hoping that it will show on the scales on Monday.

Apples go well with pork, I just wondered how I could incorporate them into my dinner without them being turned into an apple sauce. Swwet & sour has pineapple so why not chunks of apple with veg lol. Anyway, I made it & it was actually really tasty & all FREEEEE!!!!! lol x

 

[Jaly]

Glad it tasted so good - been ages since I've eaten pork! Mmm! Let's hope the scales reward your efforts on Monday indeed, otherwise they're there if you have a weekend splurge and accidentally go into your weeklies so they're nice to have!

Had some retail therapy today & bought new shoes :-D When I was out & about I popped into Costa for lunch. After reading the thread re point values of big chains, I decided last night, that Costa was where I was heading. I was SOO good! I bought a packet of 6 mini muffins but ate only 3 & took the other 3 home. Normally I wouldn't think twice about popping them all into my mouth, but today I thought no, don't eat them all. Boy that was an endurance test, but I did it. I gave them to my wee fella so I wouldn't be tempted to eat the lot!

Todays menu is

Breakfast 10pp
2 slices toast & marmalade 5pp
Milk 2pp
Nectarine
Aero biscuit 3pp

Lunch 14pp
Chicken sandwich 8
3raspberry & white mini muffins 6pp
Americano with sugar free vanilla syrup (FREEE!!! Zero, nil, no points!!)

Dinner 10pp







2 small chicken breasts 6pp
Peri peri seasoning 1pp
Potatoes 3pp
Roasted veg

Snacks 10pp
1/2 bottle red wine 10

Total 30 dailies & 14 weeklies. Weeklies balance now 34

Just a note, my dinners are served on side plates, but they are large side plates. My dinner plates are massive & food looks lost on them. At least on my large side plates, they look full. As the old saying goes, the eye sees it........

I read that somewhere too!!! It's suppose to make you feel fuller for some reason, a trick of the mind maybe? I'll try anything lol xx

Me too! Lol x

 

[Jaly]

Looks delish! I do the same, eat from a smaller plate, it makes me feel like i've got more food lol, i'm a very much quantity person when it comes to meals

 

[bulldogdaisy]

The shopping trip sounds successful! Dinner looks yummy as always,love the look of those Chicken breast :0) good idea with the smaller plates,makes a lot of sense :0)

Me too!! I'm a quantity girl as well lol. If I don't feel full, I'm not satisfied & feel cheated when I have a half empty plate. I used to wonder if I ate too much on this eating plan, but I've lost weight & feel satisfied so it seems to work. I think I just use my points wisely to get the most out of my meals.
Keep filling that plate up, full plate equals full tum lol x

Luckily, I made a double quantity of last nights dinner & have access to a microwave so it wasn't a problem for me. I don't have access to any other food & can only eat what I take with me.

Once home tonight, I had a few little chocolate treats!! Well, it is Saturday night lol.
