I am not particularly bothered by sweet stuff. My biggest vice is alcohol, usually gin and slim as it's pretty good value syn wise.
Am doing dry January tho and am missing gin more than the naice Christmas food!.
Oriana when ds was tiny dp used to bring me a cup of coffee and a danish pastry up to bed in a morning before he went to work. Then I used to get up and have toast and butter, a sandwich and a bag of crisps for lunch, a mid afternoon snack of biscuits, a late afternoon snack of cake and then my evening meal followed by pudding.
I was absolutely famished constantly. So unsurprisingly didn't lose the baby weight very quickly.
We have a takeaway once a week. But I have a tomato based curry with boiled rice, no nan bread and if we have starters I have chicken tikka or something. I am usually over my syns that day because of the gin on top but doing dry jan so should be just under tonight!
Someone mentioned up thread their soup being a bit thin. Red lentils are ace for thickening soup up and don't really alter the flavour. I always chuck about half a small cup in with mine. They don't need soaking or anything and take about 20 minutes to cook through. Think they are possibly a P choice too.
B. Coffee
L. Hm veg soup with a smidge of mature cheese grated on top. Norty but very nice and makes the soup seem very luxurious
T. Chicken sag and boiled rice.
Syns in the curry and hifi for B choice. A choice in brews and cheese for soup.
After my huge December gain I feel a little less bloated again now thank God. Really noticed the extra weight. And I have more energy again and am sleeping better. Bowels taking a bit of time to settle back down tho.
