Onwards and Downwards Continues in May 2014
Hello all,
Welcome to this month's Onwards & Downwards. We welcome anyone serious about losing weight and we offer support and kind thoughts - not magic fixes, just sensible help.
Rice - is a really healthy but sometimes forgotten ingredient? Apart from alongside a curry or chilli what is it good for? Have done a quick search and come up with these tasty looking recipes:
I know its risotto and that can be seen as boring but it can be a really handy thing to have a few portions of in the freezer as a quick lunch or accompaniment with your evening meal:
http://
Or egg fried rice is always a great way to use up left over ingredients you can pretty much add anything:
http://
Maybe a good way to jazz things up is to use more interesting rice like brown, wild or quinoa?
Over to you how do you make rice more interesting?
Don't forget your weekly weigh on Wednesday and remember we don't judge!
Here is last months thread

Here is a healthy sprinkle for your salads : you need one piece of toasted brown bread and one crispy rasher of bacon. Grind them up to "sprinkle" size and store in a little plastic bowl. You can add your own tweaks to this basic idea.

Oh wow, of course it is Wednesday already isn’t it. What with a Bank Holiday and a day’s leave tagged on, it doesn’t seem that far into the week.
Whilst I do not recall the details, I did weight this morning and can say from memory that my weight is up once again. Very disheartening.
Of course, one of the things that holds me back is this terrible affliction I have of working taste buds; for sure I could not warm to the raw vegetable matter you guys seem so enthusiastic about. Lucky you. For me, life & lunch has to be worthwhile.

Beetroot is purple, Peas are green but ought not be hard after cooking. [shrug]
Hmmm... I see I was ⅜lbs up on the week. I think I've been on that unfortunate trend for quite some weeks now. I suppose eating out twice over the last few days hasn't helped though. Still not another BH until the end of August. I'll try to see that as a useful fact.

The trouble with daily weighing is that one sees sudden jumps and can not immediately account for them. (I think weight change seems to lag increased intake by a couple of days but I have no idea how.) I had a ridiculous unaccountable jump upwards yesterday and it's barely lower today. Got 5 days to try to get back to where I was Wednesday !
