Only half a pound :o(

Last week I only lost about half a pound, which also knocked my confidence. I know that I shouldn't be overly fussed about my weight loss or work outs when I am actually ill. I know that a body needs rest and good food and plenty of fluids to get better, but a half pound loss was so disappointing.

This week I lost 1 and a half pounds, which is better. And I suppose it means I have only missed one weeks's worth of weight loss. I'm still a bit groggy first thing in the morning, coughing up nastiness and snuffling a bit, but by the time I've got to work I'm ok.

I should be able to get back into my work outs this week. I think I'm well enough for a bit of the easy work outs and build myself back up again. I'll need to work hard for this next week anyway as Jacs is visiting this weekend and we're going out for dinner and then off for some cocktails. I'll need to work off all the extra intake! And I'm 'due on' on Wednesday too which means I'll retaining fluid. If I don't want to have a complete fit and spit my dummy out next Friday I'll have to work hard!

Recipe: Pigsty Pie

This is one that we made up, although we are far from the first or only people to make a pie using pork or pork mince and call it a Pigsty Pie. So let's just say that this is our version of it. It smells great and reminds me of stuffing at Christmas, making it feel much more "naughty" than it is! This serves four people and it a nice 9 points per serving. You will need these for the mash: 400g potatoes 400g sweet potatoes 4-5 good sized carrots Salt Pepper Nutmeg Simply chop the roots, boil in salted water until tender, and mash! Add salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste. The pie filling: 10 sprays low fat cooking spray (e.g. 1 cal) 1/2 lb lean pork mince 2 onions, finely chopped 3 apples, diced 1 leek, chopped 5-6 big mushrooms 2 tbs plain flour 1 tsp sage 1 tsp parsley Salt Pepper 1 vegetable stock cube 1/2 hot water 2 tsp English mustard Fry the onions in the cooking spray until they start to soften, add the mince. Once the meat starts to colour add the apple, leek and mush
