Pen Mask - The truly private bulletin board for everybody and anything

So, I´ve finally started to lose some real weight. That´s the good news. The less good news was that it was due to a shortage of money to buy food. I´m starting to get back on track financially, but I´ve decided to keep going in the same manner. Journals and stats are good, right? I´ll be recording everything I buy and eat here. Don´t expect lovely recipes and pictures as the food will be basic, and frankly repetitive. I go for what I like and don´t mind eating a few times a week.

    Catch you later!

    Went to see a friend with whom I share a birthday. That couple sure do drink a lot for 89 year olds!

     I got home to check how many calories are in a bottle of white wine... give or take! (And two Baby bel cheeses!)

     2 x Baby bel =90 kcal
     1 x Bottle of white wine =600 kcal
     1 x fried egg =100 kcal
     4 x richmond sausages 440 kcal
     1 x steak slice (it´s a Scottish thing!) 120 kcal
     1/2 x baked beans =150 kcal
     1 x banana 100 kcal

     Total kcal: 1650
     Total spend:
     £9 bottle of wine (I never take cheap stuff on a visit!)
     £1.03 on food. (The sausages were on expiry date offer, and I couldn´t refuse.)

     I´d like to have done better, but that can happen when I´m alone. Friends, laughter and sharing a drink is far better than thin feels!

    As for the picture... forget the BMI ´science´, the best and simplest guide is that our waist (trouser size?) should be half our height. I´ll talk more about mine in another post.
