Confessions

So last week didn't really get back on track and I was out with girlfriends for nibblies, drinks and a few bites of dessert Friday night, so weighing in on Saturday morning was not my idea of a good time. I don't like paying for a gain and I was pretty confident I'd be up a little, if just from the night before. But that didn't stop me from getting back on plan and I've journaled every bite the past three days, including the delicious supper including dessert and drinks at Horizons last night.

One of the things that I love when I'm on plan is that I get an increased interest in cracking open my recipe books to cook new things. Tonight I made a delicious soup from Eat, Shrink and Be Merry called Thai One On. It's described as an "exotic sweet potato and coconut soup with shrimp. It has quite an extensive ingredient list, but it was easy to make and was ready in half an hour. It works out to 5 points a serving and serves 6, so I have four more servings in the fridge and freezer for upcoming days. I should have considered making a big salad or buying some chewy rolls to go with it, but we had a slice of bread with butter with ours.

Doug wasn't a huge fan of the flavours, but he didn't dislike it either...me, I loved it and can't wait to eat another bowl. I'll try to get the recipe up on here in a day or two. Oh and I also hit the gym this morning for a quick 20 minute bike ride and some weights. I usually go to the gym Monday nights, but can't because of a doula meeting, so I fit it in somewhere else (I am appearing to becoming more committed to this change).

Anyone else making any changes out there? Is anyone else out there? Am I in this alone?
