Hopeless case...

Day 16:

I'm absolutely devastated. I went to go weigh myself this morning and BAM! I was hit with a brick...no weight loss. Nothing. Zero. Zilch. I then proceeded to measure myself. It was only here that there was a loss, 4 cm around my waist. All other measurements were the same. Which leaves me with having lost 8 cm around my waist in these 3 weeks of dieting.

I guess it is something I should be happy about, but I want those scales to show me amazing. I've been told by many that due to female hormones and different times of the month weight varies and usually not very accurate at all.

Seeing as my hormones are all over the place I'd like to point my finger to those damned hormones. 

Sulk, sulk, sulk, here's today's menu:

Breakfast:

As usual it was egg with mushrooms. Today I added some tahini and I wish I didn't. BLAKHHH!

Lunch:


This dish is one of my very first dishes I ever cooked (I was 16). I've decided to cook it again after all these years and let me tell you it was so YUMMY!

This dish contains, chicken breast, eggplant (aubergine), tomato, cottage cheese (instead of yogurt) and a good bit of fresh mint leaves. I also used a bunch of spices, paprika, curry and cumin.

This even more delish with a side of rice :-(

Dinner:

Today my hubby and I had some lentil bites with homemade tahini dip. These are so filling and taste great!

Hope you enjoyed today's menu!

Boredom has entered the building...

Day 13, 14 and 15:

Once again I my deepest apologies for not keeping up with my daily diet posts. I'm afraid I've hit a diet plateau where I'm just over it. Although I have been sticking to it quite strictly, I've honestly just haven't been feeling very motivated. The food is starting to annoy me. Although I'm not eating as many beans as I should, just the thought of it makes me feel ill.

My once favourites have now become my enemies. I'm starting to dislike eggs very much, but sadly what is breakfast without eggs.

Anyway enough with the melancholy. Here are some pics of what I've been eating for the past few days.

Obviously breakfast hasn't changed so I will be posing pictures of the few new things I've been eating.



A traditional middle eastern dish called 'Fasooliya' i.e. lamb and beans in a tomato soup. I've also made some cauliflower rice which I think is absolutely amazing.


These babies are life savers! On a nasty slow carb diet this one something like this is a breath of fresh air. They are 100% slow carb acceptable and taste great!

These taste especially good as a light meal with a tahini dip (homemade) or even on a bed of salad leaves with a simple olive oil and lemon dressing.

There we have it for today, stay tuned for tomorrow!
