mmm looks like i’m talking to myself on here.
It’s been slow everywhere, probably because of the holidays. That and I’m sick of food, so I haven’t had much to talk about. I ate way too much over Christmas and New Year’s, so the last couple of days I’ve been seriously backing off the calories.
I did, however, make myself a nice big pot of vegetarian red lentil soup yesterday. Gonna have some of that for lunch today and I’m thinking of stopping at Jason’s Deli on my way to work and picking up a wrap to go with it.
I have made Mexican Tuna Sandwich.
Tuna drain off water.
Kidney beans.
Diced onion.
A few flakes of chilli.
Two tabs. of Salad cream.
Mix altogether.
That sounds good
We’re getting lots of snow and my boys have expressed they want grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup for supper. Perfect meal for a cold winter’s night. Me, I’m still working on my lentil soup. So I’ll have that and a wrap, most likely. All I’ve had today is an egg sandwich this morning, I was actually hungry for breakfast, which doesn’t happen often. Then I had to run into work and never ate any lunch. So with my soup, think I’ll make me a big beautiful wrap with roasted bell peppers, avocado and some sliced chicken breast. Wish I had some fresh baby spinach. I love stuffing lots of it into my wraps. But definitely not going out anymore tonight, the roads are getting bad.
Having a Fry-Up today.
One fried egg, two bacon, mushrooms, beans, one sausage.
That’s something I’ve never experienced, a true English fry-up. But then it would have to be something I’d make for dinner, because no way could I eat all that for breakfast.
My son’s dad’s side of the family is Welsh and my son has an uncle who will occasionally rub his belly and say, “Had me a full English this morning.”
Even though people in Wales will actually call it a full Welsh. But he always boats about the “full English” lol.
Hi Linda,
My Fry-Up was for Lunch.
I kinda figured it might be
Got on scales this morning, oh dear.
That bad was it Cinderella. I keep moaning to everyone like I feel really fat, but I’ve not gained any weight or lost any for years.
Today we had homemade Chicken Curry and Rice.
I feel the same way. Fat fat fat. I’m not gaining or losing. Not really, anyway. I lost that 20 pounds and keep going up and down between the last 2 of it. I’ll go down the 2 pounds. Then I’ll go back up. Then I’ll go back down. Then back up. It’s like a teeter totter hovering just enough to make it sway up and down, but not really fully fall to one side or the other.
Today I’m having an avocado quesadilla and more of my lentil soup. I think today will be the last day for lentil soup. There will be a little more once I dish out my share for today, but I’ll probably just pitch it. I don’t like keeping food around day after day after day once it’s made. It’s been hanging around long enough.
I always understood that Avocado was fattening!
ALL food is fattening if you eat more of it than you need. Avocado is very healthy.
Yes they do say its healthy, I don’t really like the taste of it.
Today we are having Gammon.
Hope you are all Ok—Im still feeling rough ill catch up when i can…
Hope you get better soon Mariana.
Today we are going vegetarian.
Its vegetable stir fry with hot spices and a Courgette bake.
I had today for lunch something basic, but something I’ve been craving… a turkey, bacon and lettuce sandwich with mayo.
Steak & Kidney Pie with Vegs. today.
I’ve been flubbing up bigtime lately with logging my calories and keeping track of everything I’m eating. I start off with good intentions in the mornings, logging whatever I’m having for breakfast or lunch (I never have both, it’s either one or the other) and then it all goes downhill from there. I’m still screwed up from the holidays. They totally threw me off. And now I can’t get myself back into my ‘stricter’ mindset where I stick to a certain amount of calories every day and leave it there. Because of this, my weight isn’t budging. I’ve been struggling with the last 2 pounds for the last couple of months.
I’m not majorly concerned with losing a bunch more weight, although I’d like to. My biggest concern is putting back on what I’ve already lost. And if I keep going the way I’ve been going, that’s exactly what’s going to happen.
And I often wonder what’s happened to everyone who used to visit this thread? If you still look in here, could you tell us why you stopped posting and what we could do to maybe liven the place up a little?
I am still unwell…muscle pains everywhere–exhausted all the time…
