Weigh in day tomorrow

Well this week I haven't been to good with watching what I eat thing, especially on the weekend. I hope tomorrow though that I don't put on weight

Day 3

Not such a good day food wise. I give myself one day a week for a blow out. But I think this blow out was a bit much. Pizza, Garlic Bread and Chicken Kickers....yummy but naughty. Anyway tomorrow is another day and I think I will call it zero point salad day.

Day 2 - Weighed In

When I first started weight watchers I weighed 105.2 kilos. Luckily for me this seems to be the weight I am good at maintaining so I don't seem to get any heavier than that.

One day a friend of mine asked me to join weight watchers with her. I had been to weight watchers before my son was born with some success so I agreed to go with her. Turns out that it has been working for me once again.

Last night I weighed in at 89.9. Yay I am in the 80's, now I have to lower my weekly daily allowance by 1pt to 21pts a day. Which should be manageable. Arghhhh.

Previous Weight: 90.5
Current Weight: 89.9
Loss: 600g

Curried sweet potato soup

1tbs tikka masala paste

600g sweet potato (kumara), peeled, coarsely chopped

3 cups (750mls) chicken stock

1/2 cup (100g) dried red lentils

1/3 cup (80mls) light coconut milk

Method:

1. Cook curry paste in a large saucepan over medium heat for 1minute until fragrant.

2. Add sweet potato, stock and lentils. Bring to the boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 - 25minutes or until potato and lentils are tender. Cool slightly.

3. Using a stick blender or food processor, puree the soup until smooth. Return soup to pan and add coconut milk. Stir over low heat until heated through. Season to taste with salt and freshly group pepper. Ladle soup into warmed bowls and serve immediately.

Day 1 - 154days in 14.7kilos lost

Well it has been 154 days since I began my weightloss journey. I started Weight Watchers on the 14/01/2010 for the second time in my short life. I have been inspired to write a blog about my journey and my favourite recipes, so stay tuned for weekly weigh ins, recipes and general thoughts.
