August 2018
And I did it
again, day 4 in the bag, 24 days to go.
Can you believe I forgot to eat breakfast yesterday, plus I managed to
get mom to come for a drink. I didn’t
realise until we were driving about 11 that we hadn’t, however knowing mom
wouldn’t get out of the car, we stopped at one of those roadside burger type
vans. I had me an egg sandwich, no
butter, cost me 6SP but kept me on track.
Obviously by
the time we got home, that was a couple of hours taken from my day so my plans
changed slightly. I’d also got me some
5% beef mince reduced from the Co-op on the morning and a jar of curry sauce, I
was getting the 75p rogan josh (14SP) one but then spotted a cheap 30p jar
(only 8SP for the jar) and thought that’ll do, it’ll be one of those mild ones
like Sainsbury’s and Asda do. It wasn’t! It was a bit tasteless so I messed about with
it, added some apple and sultana, some spices and a couple of oxo cubes – when all
else fails stick an oxo cube in it I say.
WOW, WOW, WOW, I put a mash topping on it and a bit of cheese, had it
for my tea when I got back from meetings and it was delicious. Cost me about 13SP but it was absolutely worth
it. The only other thing I had to eat yesterday
was one of the Weight Watchers new Protein Chocolate bars, they have 10 times
the protein in them of their regular toffee bars, so great as a satisfying
snack. I had the egg sandwich around 11,
then nothing until half three when I ate that bar, which I’ve got to say kept
me satisfied until I had my tea at 8, now that was 2 very Smart Points spent.
It’s getting
easier, I didn’t think about food so much yesterday at all, if I can make it
through the weekend, week two will be so much easier. I am feeling more positive in myself
believing in my ability to do this.

Getting silly now!
But seriously, I've spent the entire summer typing back my hair because it drives me mad hair does, I find it annoying when it's all in your face and hot round my neck so I tie it back, yesterday I showered late and didn't want to go out with wet hair so blasted it with the hairdryer and realised firstly my hairs grown loads and also I've gone even greyer (whiter) and I love the colour, hassle free hair, tie it back and jobs a good un. Anyway time to stop playing with the Flex fotos!
I’ve got a
fancying for toad in the hole using Penn Road butchers chicken sausages, that
needs to go on the menu this week, here’s a simple recipe I’ve used before;
As well as
being a cheap meal, it’s only 5sp a serving too.
300ml skimmed milk (4sp)
2 eggs
125g plain
flour (12sp)
1 pack of 6
chicken sausages (3sp)
Whisk
together the batter and pour over the sausages which I’d cooked in hot over for
5 or 10 minutes first, then cook for half hour.
I didn’t use
hot fat to pour the batter into like I once would, instead I used a pan liner
to stop it sticking to the baking tin.
I fancy
doing mine slightly different though, I’m going to roast some red onions first,
and maybe some garlic cloves then make the toad. Might even add a sage & onion stuff ball
or two. Ooo I’m drooling and I need to
get ready for work.
Catch ya tomorrow BeYOUtiful, here’s to working
on a healthy life and having a very great day.
