Hi, me again,
I do eat small amounts for my meals now but I am very greedy. On my diet I can have as much veg as I want so I always have a great big pan of soup available and can sometimes eat 2 big bowls before my normal meals and I can also have it between meals if I get hungry.
My biggest downfall is allowing myself to get hungry because I can and will cram anything and everything down without even thinking.
The soup is not a well made 'chefy' sort of soup with bones or anything like that. That's too much effort and then I'd need to count the calories. It's basicly 3 stock cubes (in a big pan), 1 onions and tons of veg. The veg is never carefully chopped because once cooked I blitz it - no need to give myself more things to do.
My favourites are: carrots with couple teaspoons dried coriander.
Cauli and brocoli
Carrot, onion, celery
A couple of bowls of this and I can accept the smaller meals.
Good luck with sorting the flat.
Tracey
