Be enough for yourself first, the rest of the world can wait.
I did enjoy my workshops yesterday, so much fun and quite a few of you for this time of year to be honest, that makes me even happier because it shows you're holding in there, even if some (including me) are by the skin of your teeth! Sammy who I blogged about yesterday, smashed her 90lb mark and Alison last night achieved her 4 stone milestone, so members are still going strong with the weight loss, oh and then there's Helen, she's so focused since she was diagnosed with heart failure, sometimes it takes a diagnosis to make us do something about it. Whether you're losing or trying not to gain, fair play to everyone doing what they can at this time of the year.
I too am trying, yesterday I made a cauliflower steak, in true Beverley style, I didn't mix together lots of herbs and spices, I crumbled an oxo cube and sprinkled that all over it, top, bottom and sides, after spray lighting it and I have to say, 25 minutes later on 180 (gas4), it was tasty for sure. I did my salmon in a lemon and dill flavour bag from Aldi and put the other steak in with that to experiment, that didn't work at all, the cauliflower was too strong but then so was the salmon, I think there wasn't enough food in for the amount of flavouring, that was my fault as it said to use 4 fillets.
Oh the other thing I did that was delicious was roasted my white cabbage, oh yea, I cut a couple of thin wedges and I wrapped a slice of streaky bacon round each one, they turned out delicious, I reckon you could do it without the bacon and just spray light it instead.
Yep I'm loving my veggies right now, I really am. Going to experiment a little more I think, this looks good https://hellolittlehome.com/greek-veggie-burgers-with-cucumber-feta-sauce/ and so does this https://pinchofyum.com/lo-mein there's so much stuff out there to try!
The WW app has lots of ideas including this Tomato & pepper tagliatelle but of course if you've got to have a bit of meat with it, how about Greek chicken with tzatziki, orzo & peppers.
I don't have any of those ingredients today and I have a freezer full of food, so I'll be eating something out of that for the foreseeable! Plus I've got eggs to use up, so that's breakfast sorted.
I'm off to get myself a mug of tea, then I'll get on with my day, should really do some housework - boo, but I'll see it as moving more, I managed 11k steps on my Fitbit yesterday. I earned 10 Fit Points, 3 of which were from a 30 minute walk in the rain with Alfie, it was horrid out there but as I so often say, we're not made of sugar, we won't melt.
Back to basics for me I think, I've gone so far away from basics this last month, I really need to actually start from scratch, act as a new member, read the book, look for simple switches, starting with eggs for breakfast because on the Blue plan, they're zero, plus I like them.
Mwah, luv ya,
Love me x
