Hubby and I, before toddling off to work, went to our favourite local cafe this morning for brekkie as we do once each month.

I don't know if she spells her name as Helen or Helene but she's absolutely brilliant and owns/runs a gorgeous little cafe!

She's middle-aged and so lovely and bubbly but very hard working. She always has time for her beloved customers and goes out of her way to get whatever items they ask for.

Hubby had a Cappuccino with a Full English Brekkie and I had a hot choc with Full English and a glass of cold water.

Today

B: Skinny latte, porridge & skimmed milk, banana
L: Chicken salad with roasted red peppers and boiled egg, 0% fat Greek yogurt, honey and raspberries
D: Salmon, roasted new potatoes, asparagus

This, for me, is very healthy and that's because I'm currently following WW

Yesterday was
B: overnight oats and raspberries again (I’m not a massive fan of the seeds either, but I cook them right down with low cal sweetener and lemon juice and they end up saucy but not quite jammy)
L: toasted bagel thin with peanut butter, chocolate spread, and banana
S: two choco leibniz (sp?) biscuits and a melon pot
D: left over turkey mince cottage pie (also has onions, mushrooms, and carrots in) with peas
Also two glasses of red wine and three milk tray chocolates (oops 🙊)

Today-
Breakfast the baked oats from last week which I had frozen
Lunch will be soup I think, whatever looks ok in Lidl, and an apple, and I might go wild and have one of the big pretzels with it
Dinner is turkey meatballs in black bean sauce with yesterday's rice salad and green beans, and fig and plum "compote" (sounds nicer than "stewed") with custard.

Salad fail as three of the necessary items gone off/just gone.

McDonalds (quarter pounder with cheese, and fries).

Cake fail, wasn't cooked in the middle. Ate the cooked bits. Now feel a bit sick.
