Today was both easy and tough. From 3pm onwards I couldn't stop thinking about food. Cakes, biscuits, tarts, soups, delicious smelling dinner with pasta or noodles. I wanted food and I craved carbs.
But... didn't have any of it. Put on my walking shoes around 4 pm and started walking. The health food store, a book store - where I bought a cookbook ?! food was definitely on my mind. I managed to stay outdoors until 6.30 pm.
Finally - time to eat! I prepared 2 tiny lamb chops in coconut oil, with red cabbage and pear + a cucumber salad. Wonderful. My belly and tastebuds are satisfied again.
As a reward to myself I am now baking an almond banana cake, from elena's pantry. It took me a whole week to get all the ingredients together. Yesterday I finally managed to find some vanilla extract, in an English food store of all places and went to a specialised oil store to get my hands on some grapeseed oil.
I just hope I won't eat the whole cake in one go.
For the record - lots of walking today + interval cardio twice.
I am really going to try and do an improvised pyramid and meltdown tomorrow.
Another workfree day tomorrow - yippee.
Well done on the resiting of food - your walk obviously did you a lot of good! Can you send me some cake please? It sounds marvellous - I am drooling reading it! Glad you got a free weekend - you have spurred me into thinking about baking tomorrow! :o)
