MerryMe I did the Austaralian Women’s Weekly Monday to Friday diet a little while ago and lost 3kg, some beautiful recipes in that book, but I spent $500 the first week with all the exotic ingredients. Bit less after that as I had the staples, and I thought my pantry was well stocked before. So the book you mentioned sounds quite good.
Wow, gaining a foot! How’d you do that?
The Star Wars movie last night was great, but the ads left a lot to be desired. A KFC ad with these young slim gorgeous people prancing around in bikinis – I bet they don’t eat KFC, ever. Also one for a local Indian restaurant, looked delicious but I just thought back to the last couple of meals I’ve had from there and how they were not a great example of Indian food. I came home, had a small handful of blueberries (went to blueberry farm on Monday so I have heaps) and went to bed, satisfied.
Received my Fast Day Cookbook yesterday (Mimi Spencer) and it looks okay, but a bit too American for me, although there is a great section of things to throw together for a quick meal. Also the dressings section looks good. But I think I read somewhere the calorie counts are underestimated, and there are a couple of sections for men and none for women?!
Just a question, some places I read on fast day it’s important to have a big gap between meals to give your system a rest. I’ve been trying to spread the food out over the day so I don’t get too hungry and it has been relatively easy like this, but a lot of plans say one or two meals a day only, and a lot of people skip breakfast. I could see myself doing this when I didn’t have to work, but skipping breakfast on a work day? Hmmm, I just don’t know about that, especially when people often bring tempting cakes and biscuits to work for morning tea. Or do I skip breakfast and bring a snack for morning tea instead? How do others do this?
