Foodie Friday

After two weeks following the same, very restricted diet and noticing NO CHANGE in my pain levels I decided to add some things back into my diet but on a smaller scaler and not as part of my daily diet. Breakfast is still a green smoothie, lunch is still a salad but, as you’ll see, dinners are more family friendly. Because I have stuck with no sugar (though I’m sure that will change this Easter weekend) my appetite is still very much reduced. As a result I have now lost just over 5kg. It will certainly be interesting to see how Easter goes. I definitely plan to indulge but hope to remain in control and be back on track 100% come Tuesday.

This week involved a big grocery shop, in preparation for the Easter long weekend.

Which meant the fridge went from this…

to this….

It was very nice being able to enjoy dinner with the family again, making just a few modifications rather than a seperate meal.
