wow, Wow, WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Considering I haven't been well and have struggled with my journey.  When I say struggled, I have been comfort eating and binging due to not being well.  I have planned my meals and have eaten them but not really enjoyed.  I have also not been up to going to the gym or swimming as I have struggled with exercise.  I have tried to walk and not quite managing, again, to do what I wanted!

So bearing in mind the above, I was apprehensive about weigh-in tonight and had to make myself go.  I was shocked, amazed and astounded to have lost 3lbs this week!  Just what I needed.  So I am letting myself enjoy the evening by having a glass of wine or 2!

Breakfast was fruit, yogurt and a bacon roll.  Lunch was a carrot and coriander wrap with broccoli and runners.  Drinks throughout the day was coffee (using milk) and fruit tea.  Dinner was more Cowboy pie with courgettes, carrots and leeks!  So fab day for super free.  I have indulged in a bit of chocolate and of course the wine.

So for another big loss this week I need to stay on plan!

Dinner is below:

Heart and Soul!

I have found following the plan this last week very difficult.  I have been of work withe sickness and flue bug!  It has meant my heart and soul wasn't put into following the plan.  I have also found it hard to exercise as I have been and still feel quite chesty!

All my meals have been on the slimming world plan, but I have been synning round it!

But on the other hand I am now in the Christmas spirit and have started cooking my Christmas sauces (lots of tasting and they aren't on plan!).

On the food front I have been trying new recipes and we (the better half and I) cooked The Cowboy Pie from the latest slimming world magazine!
I served this with some lightly wilted spinach and it was absolutely gorgeous!

I am struggling, so I just need to remember its one day at a time and within that day it is one meal at a time!
