Haha they were! But had another meal to go to this evening and I struggle not to have 3 courses if everyone else is! No restraint! Oh well, back on plan tomorrow and am not having any meals out until Friday - thank God!

27/8/11 - Extra Easy

B: Baked beans on toast. (HexB) A cup of tea with one sugar. (1.5)

L: Chicken baguette (a WHITE one) with 1 tbsp of mayonnaise and a tiny garnish of lettuce. (15)

T: Out for dinner. V non-SW friendly again, I'll be happy with a well deserved gain this week. But the meal was lovely! (Again!)

Starter: Deep friend squid with spinach & lime mayonnaise.

Main: Baby back ribs, chips, a tbsp of coleslaw, a corn cob and some creamed spinach.

Pudding: Warm chocolate brownie with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream and a single strawberry! Haha.

Although dinner (and lunch) were synful as sin, I'll be back on the wagon tomorrow and I think that although eating out and having exactly what I want will obviously slow my losses down temporarily, as long as I'm good the rest of the time, it will keep me following SW for a far longer period of time.
