Some random thoughts on conso:
40g of cheese a day seems an awful lot! I've not managed to eat that amount every day, more like 20g every other day. Still, it's nice to have the option!
My celebration meal this week was taking my dad out for a birthday lunch on Sunday - had the proper roast dinner, starter and pudding, wine, etc. Ooh I did feel full! Not sure I can now have 2 of those a week in the next stage. Stomach must have shrunk!
Fruit, I'm finding I can take it or leave it - played around with an apple yesterday, but left half on my plate. Funny that, used to love fruit. Tastes change, I suppose. Had a toffee muller light and found it much too sweet - back to rhubarb and plain yoghurt, with a bit of sweetener.
For my starch meal this week, I'm not that keen on pasta anyway. Had some roast parsnips instead - yum! Do you think I
could have some porridge made with pinhead oatmeal as my starch meal this week? Or will that have to be my celebration meal? Ive made it with the oatbran but it's not the same.
Bread - still not managing to have this every day, but have discovered a wholemeal soda bread that doesn't give me bloat and had some with soup for lunch yesterday, so that's ok.
There are so many extra bits to remember on conso! Lots more choices - good but a bit alarming after the restrictions of cruise.
And I still lost another 1lb according to the scales on the weekly weigh-in!
