Purple eggs??? tell me more

Put a hard boiled egg in Beetroot or Red cabbage vinegar for a couple of days.
I do Green and Blue too by adding a drop of food colouring in vinegar/salt water.
I did a similar thing with boiled potatoes a while ago.
Variety keeps me going and not getting bored with food.
However, at the moment, I cannot get my head in place and concentrate on losing the last few pounds.

Start weight - 223 lbs (15s 13 lbs)
Current weight - 149.5 lbs (10s 9.5 lbs)
Loss to date = 73.5 lbs

Another STS for me this week. That is fine and I am going to let my body, to workout what it needs to do to go back on track again. No point in pushing and forcing it to do something that, it is not ready to do - that will make it want to eat more of the wrong things and gain even more. I go through this every so often and gain a couple pounds and then go back to normal routine again.

B - Toast with cottage cheese, jam and peanut butter. Nice for a change.
L - Bacon & cheese sandwich. Couldn't resist as I bought a fresh loaf of bread.
D - Black eye peas casserole
S - pkt crisps (85 cal), Twirl (149 Cal), oranges, apple
F - 3 Black coffee, 4 Black tea
E - 6,000 steps

Sometimes, I surprise myself and can't believe my size. Today, I received a top size 12 and a dress size 14 in the post and they both fit me perfectly. I was more surprised with size 12 top as not in a million years I thought that it would fit me - mind you, it is crinkly material which give a little. Really pleased and happy.
