I am just rubbish!!

It's been so long since I last blogged. Again, no real excuse, just laziness on my part and perhaps some reluctance to be totally honest!!! Easter Monday was leftovers day. Not too bad as that meant chicken. I started the day with fruit and yoghurt then followed up with some leftover pork and Mexican bean bake.



Mexican bean bake is a great recipe to eat day after day, I never tire of it!

I really do like cold chicken so it was no great pain to eat that with salad and pickled vegetables. Followed by fruit I felt very healthy!

So back to school on Tuesday. That was hard as there was a shared breakfast of croissants. I took
yoghurt and fruit but an almond croissant called me and I am afraid I gave in! I dread to think how many syns that was but there's no point in beating myself up. It was done so I just have to move on and try not to let that ruin everything. I tried so hard at lunch time and stuck to my salad and cold meat. Oh how I wanted another croissant! 

How pleased am I that Lent is over and cheese is back on the menu! With others at home still eating leftovers I had my favourite jacket potato with my HEa of cheese! Teamed with pickles it was delicious!



Fruit and yoghurt followed. I had not had my HEb but I really could not manage that after my croissant blip! I even had no more syns for the day. Every little helps, I tell myself.

So to Wednesday and weigh in again. Wednesdays are always lean days so fruit and yoghurt for breakfast and beans on toast (HEb) fir lunch, followed by fruit.

Even though I was holding my breath I knew it would not be good news from the scales. After all Easter AND my birthday was not a good omen. Sure enough the pound I lost last week was back on again. Ggrrrrrrrr! I have no one to blame but myself!

When I got home I was determined but Wednesday is usually treat night. I had chicken Katsu with 
rice but followed that with my last mini chocolate egg and some ice cream. I reckon that was all of 
my 15 syns and a little bit more!! 



Easter and my birthday is now officially over so I MUST get back into the swing! 

Beginning of a new week and a new resolve ...... Yoghurt and melon for breakfast - just the rest my stomach was craving! 



Trying hard, lunch was chicken stir fry and rice. I topped up with fruit and tried really, really hard to avoid the biscuits and chocolates still floating around at work. It is sooooo difficult.



Yoghurt and fruit is a sure fire top up.  I have tried drinking diet coke as well to fill me up between meals. I am not convinced that works. I have a fear it just makes me feel hungry. Will have to monitor that one. 

The days seem quite long food wise since I have been back at work this week. I am not sure I eat any more at home but I think it is in my mind that I could just go to the fridge if I needed to! Anyway, dinner was piri piri chicken with vegetables. I seem to be eating a lot of chicken just lately - am checking the clucking and sprouting feathers!!!! 


Enough is enough I hear you shout! Apologies for the lengthy blog. I will catch up with the rest if the week tomorrow. Just as a teaser .....it's not all plain sailing. My resolve is being stretched to the limits!!!
