Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

The last couple of nights we have had soups with crusty rolls in a bid to cut down on the size of our evening meals (me, the missus and my son that is), but oddly, rather than this being almost a punitive experiment, the kids love it and want soup every night for the rest of their lives and the missus and myself have felt just as sated as we did with a big pasta or curry?

So that part of the diet is going ok, all I need now is to stop munching on chocky bikkies and panettone all day...

My husband: "Honey, I need to lose weight. Please tonight just salad and/or soup". And then he goes and eats a chocolate alfajor for dessert.

Last night was pork tenderloin with my own recipe of rosti (onion, garlic, cheese added). A post in this forum made want to eat that, btw. Ah... An arugula and tomato salad to buffer the protein and fat (that my hubby didn't touch).

I failed miserably with that again today.

I have no idea yet.

Me too smokes, I'm trying to trim my waist to what it used to be.  I'm already seeing the effect of my junk food diet.  I like that I gained weight but I don't want to add inches to my waist.

Lunch was at one of the nicer places here and it was the worst lasagna I ever had.

I've been contemplating going to the gym for at least 3/4 of my life.

I'm seriously thinking about it.  I get tired thinking about sweating though so I really don't know what to do.  Five meals a day really doesn't help.

I'm not sure if you'll check this... but just in case.. Lots of the burger places are terrible in the parks. The salmon is always good though. There's lots of the fast food type places in all the parks that sell salmon. In the Land area at Epcot they have a food court that's good. Basically all the back 'world' portion of Epcot is good.. Some of it is awesonme even. Animal Kingdom has a McDonalds.. I think. For breakfast there's lots of good pastry shops. It's fun to eat pastry and fruit and sit by the avenues and watch the park open and hunt for autographs. There's a place in Tomorrowland that's disgusting.. so avoid tomorrowland in general :p The hotels usually have ok food if you order carefully. And, one place I want to go and haven't is Artists Point at Wilderness Lodge. The polynesian has cool places to eat also. The Hollywood Studios seems like it should be cool, but it gives me creepy vibes for some reason.. and all the food places seem dirty and crowded. I went over and rode Tower of Terror, then headed back to the other parks to eat.

Tonight I am going to try and make a kind of spicy curry using Mattar Paneer.  I haven't really cooked with that before, but I have had some onece that was quite overcooked and was a bit like stringy tofu.  So I'll try and be delicate and just have some clean steamed basmati with it along with some flatbreads that I'll make up as I go.

Depending on the cheese and how hot and for how long you heat them it can happen that. Been there unfortunately. Not with that dish in particular though.

Tonight I just came in from the street so it's going to be Gnocchi (that I bought in a pasta parlor ready to boil) with tomato sauce (that I have in the freezer). Parmigiano, bread and wine and we can be eating in 10 min.  ;D
