Day 3530 (29/08/2019)

Made a very lovely omelette, as part of the new diet.

 

Then more work in the office.

In the evening I started on some of the diet menu's, with tonight's being portobella mushroom / pizzas with an asparagus & walnut salad, quite tasty but not as nice as a Domino's pizza.

 

 

   

 

Day 3529 (28/08/2019)

Another day of ideas & plans.

Day 3528 (27/08/2019)

Another great healthy breakfast.

Then a slightly busy day, sorting out my wife's car and sending emails.

Day 3527 (26/08/2019)

It is a sunny & dry Bank Holiday.

These healthy breakfasts are very nice :-)

In the afternoon we went to see some of my wife's family and I had a unhealthy (it wasn't really) vegetarian chilli, I didn't eat all of the rice as I was still trying to be good but I may have had some cake :-) 

 

Day 3525 & 3526 (24 & 25/08/2019)

It's a Bank Holiday Weekend and the sun is out :-)

I cut the grass and tidied the garden before it got too hot.

Then time for a lovely brunch.

In the evening I did a Mexican but I had lettuce as my wrap instead of the tasty bread style wrap, they were lovely & it has opened up a whole new style of sandwich to me :-)

Then finished with some nice berries & cream.

This weeks flowers for my wife, ended up in two vases.

 

Did a nice roast lamb for dinner this week.

   

 

   

On a recommendation I made cauliflower mash, which was very nice.

   

Day 3524 (23/08/2019)

An annoying start to the day with someone reversing into my wife's car but thankfully she was OK as she was actually parked at the time.

Then I had a positive and non too stressful business with my business partner.

Then I made a nice salmon stir fry tonight with broccoli & cauliflower rice in the evening.

 

 

 

Day 3523 (22/08/2019)

It was a fairly stressful day demonstrating our software but the feedback was very good, so that was a relief getting real police officers trying it out.

Then the long tiring drive home, stopping to refuel the car and me (with a nearly health Tuna & Egg Salad) along the way.

Day 3522 (21/08/2019)

Another full day in Exeter, which went well well and should help put the new missing people organisation going in the right direction.

Then a very long drive up to Middlesbrough, which was very tiring.

Day 3521 (20/08/2019)

Another busy day in Exeter but it is going well.

Day 3520 (19/08/2019)

A busy day in Exeter running a training course, which went OK.

Lots to do when I got back home, so its quite a busy week but had a nice healthy-ish bubbly & squeak with some beef when I got home.

Day 3518 & 3519 (17 & 18/08/2019)

It is the weekend with lots to do for work, as always but just so annoyed at the moment it's hard to see the point.

Anyway we had a health breakfast, which was obviously lovely as it was bacon, egg & sausage.

Who would have thought it was the bread & other stuff that were unhealthy :-)

In the evening we had starters of asparagus & salmon with hollandaise sauce, which was lovely.

Then I did a salad, with rocket, avocado, beetroot, Parma ham & baked halloumi cheese, very nice and healthy

We also had a few G&T's for a change as Gin is healthier than wine apparently :-)

My Sunday treat was visiting my parents & having Croissants, I've really missed bread based things.

I made a very nice roast beef dinner but limited myself to only had half a carrot, half a parsnip and half an onion, the rest was cabbage, broccoli & cauliflower with loads of roast beef, so it sort of fitted in with the diet :-)

 

 

Yum Yum Yum 

Day 3517 (16/08/2019)

Sad news in the morning with the death of a Policeman from Thames Valley, there will be no justice and some unsatisfactory sentences for offences that don't show the true cost of a crime having been committed - I'm so glad I am out of it and that my kids decided on a different career. 

A few more words exchanged at work, some people really are just tossers.

Anyway tonight was salmon stir fry with the rest of the cauliflower & broccoli rice.

 

I know I have only been trying this for a few days but I actually don't feel hungry and I do feel a bit better, so hopefully when I start it for real I will be able to stick to it and benefit from it, but at a stone  a month it will still be a very long term project :-(

Day 3516 (15/08/2019)

Another smoothie in the morning and another day in the office, not doing a much as I wanted.

Tonight’s dinner was a pork stir fry on cauliflower & broccoli rice (which tastes nothing like real rice but is apparently healthier), which wasn't that bad.

I picked some chilli's & yellow tomatoes in the garden in the evening.
