Sunday 12 Feb - - swimming

I went swimming today so didn't have my Gliclazide, and slept a lot to catch up on a lot of missed sleep recently.

And I ate:

porridge

a banana

Carvery lunch: turkey, roast and mashed potatoes, cabbage, cauliflower cheese, carrots, peas, swede, parsnip.

a hot cross bun

bowl of Kelloggs Special K red berries

an orange

Verdict: not bad, and plenty of fruit and veg - - just about 8 portions!

Back from Holidays

I've had a wonderful time in France and Spain and am now back to checking on what I eat!

Today I ate:

a bowl of Dorset Cereal muesli - extra nutty

two slices of toast and marmalade (I'd been swimming and done 70 lengths)

a bowl of baked beans

a bagel with half-fat butter and sugarfree jam

an apple

pasta bolognese - home-made with wholewheat pasta and peas - - in it were onions, tinned tomatoes, tomato puree - - grated cheese on top

some cooked pears (thank you Amy)

and I'm just about to have an orange

Verdict: on target for 5 a day but rather too much bread!
