Ok, so I've been cheating a little bit and have had the odd portions of wheat, but nothing like the toast fest I was having before (I guess, even though I didn't think I ate that much toast)
Friday was torture. It's supermarket shopping day for me - which normally requires visits to one supermarket that sells things discounted. However, as its a discounted place it didn't have some of the stuff, so I headed off to a main stream supermarket. They were completely sold out of all fresh fish - the key protein in my dinner on Friday. CRAP. So, off I went to a third supermarket! After landing in my door at 6.10, changing and going out, I wasn't back home until 845, and then had to leave again to collect himself from the train. Also had a crazy incident with my neighbour - she's clearly all kinds of crazy.
Dinner was amazing, baked hake with pesto, red onion, chorizo and tomatoes.
Saturday - went to the www.artsource.ie to see some of local Irish and based in Ireland artists - yeah, wasn't as good as last year, but still it was nice to go to. Spent the morning of Saturday on a grueling 13.5km run - which was hard going (2 glasses of wine and 2 bottles of beer on Friday night - NOT my friend), but soooo worth it, and then before the exhibition went to lunch. At lunch I had a smoked salmon open (that's how it was written on the menu - in the salad section!) - however, when it arrived I then realised that it was an open sandwich served on one piece of brown bread. So I ate that. Then I ate chocolate cake - which was amazing.
Saturday's dinner had disaster points all over it - it should haev come with a WW warning - TWO BOTTLES OF WINE (yeah, for me - I shared 1/2 of one bottle), potato gnocchi - YUM, and a cream and bacon sauce. Gnocchi is something I've never ordered or made before. Even though it was a bit glutenous it was pretty tasty when fried off in the pan and my boyfriend LOVED it.
Sunday was a good food day, had a couple of these sausages - which did taste low-fat, but at the same time gave me the sausage hit that I wanted. They did not pass the test of the boyfriend though, and I think he would have preferred something a little more fatty! Oh well - it's 1WWPP vs 4 WWPP for a full fat saussie!!
Then I had a falafel from the market and a rice crispie square - with chocolate. Delish!
This week's been good so far, today weighed in at 9st 13lb :-) Have a 10k race tonight so am looking forward to that, and any more positive effects it might have on the scales...
Menu today:
Protein shake 2pp
Grapefruit 0pp
Yogurt 1pp
Chicken salad with low fat mozz and dressing 6pp
Porridge 2
Yogurt 1
then home to collapse on the couch... not sure what I'll be able for after the run - sometimes I'm not ready to eat anything right after, and we've no eggs - my normal emergency meal option!
