I am still trudging* along with my healthy eating and so far so good. It's not always easy especially as yesterday I just wanted to eat all the bad things. But I was good for most of the time and I must remember to take it day by day.
I cooked a really nice healthy chicken pie recipe yesterday which was from the Weight Watchers website. I was amazed that a healthy pie existed but it did. Jim loved it and we both felt we had some comfort food without all the fat and calories. I will cook it again and next time share the recipe with some photo's.
The good news is that I am trying new recipes and wanting to experiment more. I have found a lovely low fat recipe for vegetable curry which I can't get enough of and I really want to cook more of the recipes I have found and I promise to share the successful ones with you.
If you have any tasty, low fat recipes then please feel free to share the love!
Happy Tuesday xx
*walk with purpose :o)
Flowers were in bloom.
The pond was covered in pondweed.
The children watered the stone frog as they thought it was hot!
Lien ate her roast dinner with her curlers in, getting ready to go out.
Ollie drew whilst Daisy went to bed poorly.
And after more work on the cottage, the sun went down as Jim and I made our way to the cinema to see The Muppets.
Last night I reached for my felt, fabric and sewing box and settled down to create something. It's been a long while since I made something from scratch in this way - the last bit of sewing I did was sewing the names onto the Christmas stockings. It was so therapeutic to put the radio on and sew. It had been a bit of a day at work and my soul needed creative time.
It all went well until I reached for my white thread and saw the mess it was in. I have no-one to blame except myself and it took me a while to de-tangle it all. In the end I did have to cut it but hopefully didn't waste too much thread.
Then it was time to carry on sewing. It was all a bit trial and error really and it isn't quite finished yet but when it is I will post a picture, even if it is a bit hideous!
I am still trudging* along with my healthy eating and so far so good. It's not always easy especially as yesterday I just wanted to eat all the bad things. But I was good for most of the time and I must remember to take it day by day.
Happy Monday to you all. I hope you have a lovely weekend. I had a fab time at the children's party in Brighton, seeing old friends and helping out. Such great fun!
