Good morning everyone
Well it’s Monday morning, start of B2B FD’s for me. I’m actually looking forward to them and am feeling positive. I’m interested to see if the weight loss continues this week and I will be happy if it is even a little bit down from last week. This morning I weighed myself and I am up a bit but not as much as I usually am after the weekend. I ate a bit too much bread and drank a bit too much. I think I did ok though
Thanks LJoyce for the reply for working out the calories of my pea and ham soup. (it was very yummy) I did exactly as you said except for the part about weighing the ham! I was so excited to be eating it that I threw it all back in and then remembered i was meant to weigh it first!! Oh well guess it is a NFD soup for me. I have some in the freezer although I may have to share it with OH who actually loved it too. He is a man that hates soup (well he used to LOL)
Cali there are so many salads out there but a couple I always make in summer are four bean mix salad and baby spinach pumpkin salad. I just chop up some onion, tomato and cucumber. Open up a can of four bean mix and rinse it really well. Add it to the salad and then dress it with some lemon juice and a little olive oil. Add salt and pepper too. You could also add some parsley or salad leaves or feta cheese. Yum!
The other salad is just roasted cubes of pumpkin (cooled) and then add it to baby spinach or even rocket. I add sliced red capsicum some red onion. Dress it with balsamic, olive oil and maple syrup shaken together in a jar first. I also add pepper and a bit of salt to the dressing. You can also top it with some toasted pine nuts or again feta cheese if you like it.
I am looking forward to summer as I love eating all kinds of salads. I thought winter would be easy for fasting but summer is much easier for me. A salad and some kind of protein is what we usually eat for dinner anyway. It’s like a FD meal every night of the week 🙂
Hope everyone is doing well and hope you all have a great day x
