Actually I've found the hot weather the hardest thing to adapt to (cope with) this week. I've stayed the same, which is better than a gain but still makes the end goal seem forever away. It's been too tempting to come home every night in this hot weather and share a bottle of wine in the garden with my hubby. Every glass is 3 points out of my daily allowance, which is fine on occasion but not to be done in excess Emily!!
BBQs and picnics haven't helped either. I'm such a little of everything person, it's just the everything that's the problem ;o) I'm going to set myself a challenge this week of finding lots of yummy, BBQ/Picnic friendly recipes and making sure I still satisfied with them.
So confession time - I've point counted every day but there were at least two days this week where I went over, slightly, so smacked bum (big, massive, giant whale bum) and carry on with a fresh week.
Yesterday was a good day. We took the dog for a walk and then stopped off by the brook for a picnic. We ate half a cob of corn (1 point), a piece of halloumi (3 points), a veggie sausage (2 points) and a veggie burger (3 points) that were left over from Saturday night's BBQ. Then I made a green salad (free), some coleslaw (1 point per serving) and some curried yogurt dip (1 point per serving) with some Quorn mini scotch eggs (1 point each). Total = 14 points which is great considering this was lunch and dinner in one.
So I'm on the right track again, I just need to stay on the butt bus and keep riding the journey to skinny town....;o)
