I'm meal planning again. I missed last week, because I was working away for several days and didn't see the point. But what a mistake.
I put on 2 pounds, even though I tried really hard to stay on plan. Then because I was demotivated and didn't have a menu plan to fall back on, I ate poorly and felt like I was lurching from one meal to another.
Well this has to change if I am to change.
Yesterday found me cooking for success which is cooking meals in bulk to be frozen and pulled out when needed. No excuses for not having a tasty low syn meal if I'm tired. Just grab something from the freezer. So I cooked up 8 portions of cottage pie and vegetables for lunches, which I can keep at work for emergencies. I usually have leftovers, but now if there aren't any, no excuses.
I also cooked a big batch of meat (I love offal, so it was lambs liver, kidney and heart. Tasty and cheap) with gravy, which I've made into a pie (wtih filo pastry) cottage pie (with potato) and have can have 'plain' with potato and vegetables. The same goes with a chili con carne. I plan to eat it with rice or baked potato, used in stuffed tomato or to make a pasta bake.
Onto the menu, in no particular order
Chili and baked potato
Poor Man's Spaghetti
Pasta Bake and vegetables
Meat pie, potato and vegetables (made with filo pastry about 5 syns I think)
Beef Stew (no dumplings this week though)
Roast chicken and all the trimmings, slimming world style
I've got a day free at the moment which will be Saturday. I will decide a bit nearer the time what to have, dependant on my weigh in on Friday!
I feel better too for writing it down, phew
