Good evening, everyone!
This, plus the hi fi bars and the popchips was what I brought home.
I decided that today was going to be a calorie day rather than a Slimming World day. That means up to 1300 calories or, if I want a maintain intake, up to 1900 calories.
I changed my breakfast plans and has a small beg of popchips and two hi fi bars (both from the SW hamper) and then a pear.
271 calories
That soup was VERY filling!
This left me pretty low on calories so I had another hi fi bar (because why not?).
268 calories the lot!
Late afternoon, I had an options choccy drink for 89 calories (it was a big one).
Dinner was the reason I had a calorie day. I had a M&S wood fired pizza, an ultra thin spicy chicken arrabbiata one and it was just delicious!
That was all I had - I've gone down with a cold and didn't want anything else at all.
So the pizza with some salad cream for dunking (I can dunk nearly anything in salad cream!) came to 446 calories.
Total calories for the day: 1074. Too low. I may very well have another hi fi bar later on because I can!
Commenting on the last few post so apologies for long message... Well done for being so restrained at the Harvester! I always feel that I’ve shortchanged myself if i don't indulge (or do i mean over indulge) when i eat out and quite often then feel guilty which dilutes the enjoyment. I haven't come across spicentice so will be interested in your upcoming meals and thoughts, at first glance it looks expensive for what you get although i guess if it gives you inspiration and variety it's worthwhile and of course you will have the recipies to reuse and adapt. Today was an interesting take on SW versus counting calories, i hope you did add a few more calories before the end of the day! Best wishes Melanie
ReplyDeleteI did, Melanie. Those hi fi bars are no more and I felt much happier about the calories!
DeleteYou really can't work SW and calorie counting together as they work in different ways but it's very interesting.
I'm often the same about eating out - fortunately, what I really like is the healthiest choice and I didn't feel at all diddled, especially after the ice cream! It can be tricky though. xx
