Good morning team, welcome Frangipani, being a typical Aussie group, we will probably call you Fran, as we shorten everyone’s name 🙂 you will find the sweet tooth leave you after a while, and one trick we have found is especially on fast days, and if evenings are hardest we save 50 cals for a Jarrah low cal Hot Chocolate to have before bed 🙂 it satisfies the sweet tooth as well as a craving before bed. Days at home, as you described are best served making up a big pot of fresh veggie soup 🙂 it’s so yummy, filling and low cal. Put everything in it, a few stock cubes and cook away. When you serve it up, add some chicken breast you have weighed and counted into you cals 🙂 then divide the rest up into zip lock bags and freeze for other fast days, I find chunky veggies better but you can put the wizz through it if you prefer 🙂 but as PH said above, the protein is what helps keep you fuller for longer. A hard boiled egg late orvo seems to held you till dinner. Please ask any questions as they arise.
PH I wondered how you were skipping through Canada, thought you moved!
25 predicted here today, just so perfect, ideal for gardening, my son has done the cow shed out for me, although it’s sheep down there at the moment, so all clean and fresh, getting to be heavy works for me these days. I’m going to be “playing” in my two green houses, weeding my orchids which are blooming, budding and getting ready for a lovely display. So feelin’ good team. Get out and enjoy your day, all the exercises count to burning cals team as well as improving your life 🙂 and well being. Don’t forget planning for our fast tomorrow, be prepared so no slip ups happen, get some water in the fridge, add a bit of lemon chunks or whatever you like 🙂 and with the warmer weather predicted again, good salad day wooyooo! Cheap on the cals and with a piece of steamed fish or chicken, peeerfect!
So, a good day for making some tracks team, not following someone else’s path 🙂 and its still YOUR day, so a nice glass or two of wine could well be on the cards 🙂 xxxxx
