Day 5

Weekend's nearly over, blimey where did it go.. Time just flies doesn't it.. ??

It has been a tempting day today, i did have the pork dinner but the temptation of the rich rich gravy and left over roast potatoes was really difficult. I could have just sneaked a little spud and dipped it into that gravy...but i didn't. oh and the Yorkshire pud (kids always have Yorkshire puds with a roast) left on the side would have been a delight dipped in that gravy.. but i didn't do it.. drooling now, really drooling... God it had better be worth it when i step on those scales... Deprivation is not a good thing is it??

So the start of the week, what to eat... well here it goes.. This is what i will be eating tomorrow.. Is that another sign of getting old, knowing in advance what I'm having for dinner for the whole week.. Of course it isn't, i'm on a diet...arghhhhh..

Breakfast:

2oz Porridge
1 Banana


Lunch:

Scrambled egg
salt and pepper to season or to taste
1 egg
2 tbs semi skimmed milk
2 slices of wholemeal spread - toasted

mix the egg with the milk and zap in the microwave stir and serve

Dinner:

Thai green curry - yum yum yummeeeeeee
10z basmati rice - uncooked weight - cook first and then reheat
1/4 tim Reduced fat coconut milk ( found a tin in tesco for 49p)

1/2 tbs Thai green paste
405 Chicken fillet - cut into bite sized pieces (large pieces for my mouth then)
2 courgettes - Sliced
2oz Mange tout


Pour coconut milk into a wide pan, add curry past and bring to a simmer. Add the chicken and poach for 10 Min's turn just once.

add the courgettes and simmer for another 5 minutes, finally add the mange tout, simmer for another 5 mins and serve with the rice, which you would have cooked ages ago..

Snax:

4oz unsweetened popcorn. I have the salted stuff from Tesco ( yes i shop at Tesco, how did you guess??)

Oh i have noticed that my jeans are feeling a little more comfortable.. that's a good sign.. 2 more days and then i will tell you how much i have lost...
