Hi amythyst. Just stumbled across your diary. WTG on your 1st wk loss that great. Looking forward to the rest of your journey. :-)

Hiya! Just found your diary, your meals are looking good, must try that balsamic chicken! Only thing is I might say they are a bit repetitive (I have this problem too) so my consultant said most important in this plan is variation and moderation, so now I am freezing my leftovers to use later that week/next week and cook something different the next day, so I vary between rice/potatoes/noodles/pasta. I thought it was good advice, hope it helps you too.

Thanks for looking and your feedback ! I don't disagree but with working full time I tend to find I batch cook and either have for dinner or lunch the next day ( or a few days ) I think once i get more confident I will start changing or maybe batch cooking a few different things

Feel free to keep chking in and I will do the same with you. Lisa xxx
