I’m not sure how I think I did this shabbos. At mealtimes I loaded my plate with half veg mostly but I did also indulge.
Friday night
Challah, beef, rice, cauliflower – I ate too large a portion of beef because it was so yummy. I need to stop at future after the first portion.
No dessert
Shabbos day
Breakfast
Cheekful of grape juice
Weetabix and almond milk
Plain Greek yoghurt and sweetener (eaten while kids ate their nosh)
Lunch
Challa, Half a piece of salmon
Just one chicken leg, salad (mixed greens, mushroom, roasted pepper), spaghetti
Two lemon shortbread biscuits
Afternoon snacks
A bag of popcorners, a banana, prunes
Shalosh seudos
2 pieces of matzah with some beef leftovers and mixed greens inside
Having looked over what I ate, it doesn’t look so terrible. Only because I ate the biscuits and popcorners that I feel like I wasn’t so on track. Maybe I need to make a lower calorie dessert if I know I’m actually going to eat it. In the past when I’ve made things like courgette cake (which is so delicious) the kids revolted after a while….Maybe meringue. Or stewed fruit. Any suggestions? Portion sizes in general were actually very on track.
Today will be an outing day… More later.
Slimming B'Simcha! 
It looks like you had a successful Shabbos. Great! I hope you have a good outing day. I’m looking forward to hearing all about it. Keep up the good work. Lots of love and hugs. Daddy XXXXXXXXXX

First of all enjoy your outing. Secondly well done for yesterday. It’s really interesting how as one moderates one’s eating then the “lapses” or “treats” loom larger in one’s assessment of the day i whereas in the past one might have eaten 6 or 8 biscuits and thought nothing of it. Now a modest two seems a big deal. yet in fact it shows how far you have already come in your attitude and portion control.Well done! (0f course the 6-8 biscuits is an example of myself…..:) )
