I quite believe it. We used to have a huge garden in our last house, and we had 2 greenhouses. We grew everything, not that I did much in the garden, but Phill would be out there every day. The end produce was so fantastic and made all the hard work worthwhile.
Hi girlies.....phew what a day!! Only JUST sitting down now, and it is just after 11pm!! Where does the time go....
Well, Day 15 !
All in all not bad, but could have been better to be honest...I will explain.
BREKKIE
2 quorn sausages
baked beans
2 mushrooms
LUNCH
Well, I got out the sweet potato and fishcakes for lunch.....but firstly had to go into the allotment at home around 9am to do all the watering AND before the sun got too strong! As I was watering, my lovely neighbour along the road with her two little girls came skipping down to see me...bless...they love to come in and chat and water and weed and do all sorts for me! So, they were having a BBQ and well, not sure whether we invited ourselves, or the girls asked my OH if we would come!
Anyhow, OH went to see the farmer about the bees, so he went off cycling and I went shopping with my neighbour ! So, then got back at lunch time,,NO LUNCH!! As I was preparing loads of Turkish salads...went to their house at 3pm and had a lovely BBQ
This is what I have had!
1 x sausage kebab (made with 1 low fat sausage)
1 x lamb kebab
half venison burger
Salads
shepherds salad, a little oil in this
potato salad (all ok)
Turkish salad (olives and haloumi cheese in this and oil)!!!!
cicik - turkish yoghurt salad, all ok!!
tiny bowl of Eton mess (made with WW yoghurt, strawberries and merigue) - reckon ok as I had literally 2 TBSP.
Then, small piece of cherry tart and WW cream!!!!
Considering this was 2 meals in one, I dont think it was over my allowance AND allowed 200 cals extra plus allowed 100 cals that is more than 5% fat!! So, think ok.
THEN, we had to go to the other allotment as I bought 7 artichokes yesterday, so needed to get these planted and do a few bits and pieces..we were there till around 10pm!!!!! so, did a lot of digging and watering, which means a lot of walking to and from the barrel to the beds!!!!
Now, when I got home, I had a bit of the munchies! Have had a small bowl of yoghurt raisins (not sure they are that good for me)
A few bits of haloumi cheese...threw the rest in bin as I was tempted to eat it! And a little bit of olive bread!!
STOPPED THERE! I really dont class it as a binge and dont feel it is a binge,,so I am very very happy with this. I dont feel stressed whatsoever.
OH FORGOT TO SAY, I LOST 2 LBS OVERALL THIS WEEK...TOTAL LOSS IN 2 WEEKS - 8LBS!!
Not sure if I will make the stone in a month, but you know I dont care! I am so enjoying eating healthily that I really dont care..it is so liberating, cant explain it.
My friend who we had the BBQ with today has lost 1 st on WW and her hubby has lost 2 st. She wears a pedometer, which is a good one, so she is buying me one on Tuesday so I can record my steps and she showed me her WW cookbook which is wonderful and I would probably use all the recipes, so buying that too!
I have had an absolutely fab weekend....I just wish I didnt need to go to work tomorrow as I could quite happily just do more in the allotment..my sunburn though is sore
OH is off to see a guy near where we live who makes hives with cedarwood...the hives look really lovely, so hopefully we will put an order in for that and have the hives in time for the bees in a month.
Sorry, guys..waffling again, but just wanted to share with ya!!!!
Hope you have had a lovely weekend..I know Mary you have been working, but not sure about the others!
Oh, I will cut back a little bit tomorrow to try and just make up a little for the extra I may have consumed today.
At coreball tomorrow and then an hour in the gym, so hopefully will burn it off!!!!!!
Well Iris, I am exhausted for you. What a hectic day you have had, but look at the satisfaction you have gained.
I dont see that your food was that bad today at all, obviously I am not familiar with the diet, but hey, one day if you are a little bit over, I cant see any harm, and as long as you feel relaxed and happy with it yourself, then all the better.
Well done on binning the rest of the cheese, thats a major milestone, because previously, you would probably have eaten it and then felt terrible for having done so.
Well done on your loss of 2lb, making 8lb in two weeks, thats MAGNIFICENT.
If you dont make the stone in the month - so be it, there is always next month, at least the scales are going down and not up.
My day has been good even though working, I managed to get a few rays in the garden this afternoon, but I AM looking forward to a few more rays tomorrow and a couple of vodka's :8855:
reading Mary's post i realised i forgot to say well done on your 2lbs loss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
