Day 3 - Tough, Tough, Tough

So lottie went back to nursery today which meant I had 5 minutes to myself, well I say to myself but actually I never stopped, the house looks immaculate and I did yet another trip to the tip, where do we get all this junk from!

I also put together Lottie's old cot so that I could photograph it and put it on ebay and that was extremely emotional.  I could picture her so clearly the first time we put her in it and she looked so small and now I don't even think she would fit in it.  Its a very sad time because its like closing the door on my baby days but hey life moves on.

Breakfast
2 breakfast biscuits

Lunch
2 eggs hard boiled and mashed with mayonnaise
1 slice toast
yoghurt

Dinner
pork with creme fraiche and mustard sauce
gnocchi
roasted peppers and mushrooms
cherries

Day 2 - Chilli Flakes

So I wondered what today had instore when, sleep deprived, I was awoken (again) by my gorgeous little daughter demanding I go to her.  All this running up and down stairs must be good for me.  Alas she isn't very well (bad cough) and just like her Mummy does not take to being ill very well.  Its always stressful when children are not well but I still managed a good day of eating.

Breakfast
1 slice toast with low fat leerdammer slice
Coffee

Lunch
Prawn dumplings and breadsticks with wasabi and soya dip - which my daughter pinched most of!
Yoghurt

Dinner
Sea bream fillet with chilli flakes
Courgettes roasted with chilli flakes
Gnochhi roasted with chilli flakes (you can see I was getting my chilli fix in, and my god it was hot but fab)
Strawberries and blueberries

Day 1 - Start at the very beginning

Ok as I have really not been concentrating on the weight loss for weeks now I thought that the only way I could really give myself a kick was by pretending I was starting again, so today will be day 1!!!!  I have put on 6 pounds over the last 6 weeks (at least I am consistent) but that has to come off, before those 6 pounds become 3 stone and I am back to where I began.

Today has been a bit stressful to say the least with it being entirely dominated by one very bossy 3 year old, I have no idea where she gets it from!!  Apparently she wasn't well enough to go to nursery but then was miraculously better only an hour later arrrghhhhhh!!! There were several times I thought about raiding the chocolate drawer or eating the cake that was left over from weekend, but I am very very proud to say I didn't.

Breakfast
2 breakfast biscuits

Lunch
chicken and sweetcorn soup
2 savoury cheese biscuits

Dinner
Salmon fillet
Roasted gnocchi
posh mushy peas
yoghurt
