Monday - New Week, New Focus

Just went food shopping for the week ahead. Got loads of veg (of course!!) and thought about natural laxatives.... I have now had a BM btw (sorry!! TMI! But if I can't say it here, when can I??) but still. Have gone for probiotic yoghurt drinks, more fruit, honey, soy yoghurt and some prunes. Best to keep things regular - my digestive system is temperamental at best anyway so might try to keep it happy.

Day so far - porridge (140) and probio drink (67). I'm feeling considerably happier than in my previous ranty post, ready to face the new week and fight it down - so much more motivated.


Just made soup - cabbage, carrot and coriander. Seriously, if it's cold where you are, get yourselves a handblender - makes semi-pro soups with far fewer calories!! Seriously, 4 carrots (100), 1 tsp stock (12) and half of a white cabbage (100) has made me 3 servings of soup! And I'm full from that!! Having a hot chocolate too (60!!). Oh and had some prunes earlier (37)

So today to lunch - 374. Kerching!
