Day 3 of Low Carb Teso eDiet
Its day 3 and we have another day where we have gone out and therefore have had to manage one meal 'off the Tesco eDiet plan'.
I started OK with the Greek Breakfast of eggs, feta cheese, tomatoe, cucumber and olives. Well I say I started OK but I really cannot stand olives and the jar of olives in brine looks remarkably large considering Ijust need 2 for this meal. The ingredients had olive oil dribbled over it and then salt and pepper added. I decided that I could manage the olives if I cut them into small pieces and had them combine with something else and thus I managed to get through the meal.
You have to record daily the number of fruit and veg portions each day so I have been having some fruit but looking at the site this evening I note that fruit is not necessarily what they are after in first stage of this diet. Thats a bit of a blow as I had an apple before we went out.
We ended up at Ferry Meadows in Peterborough for a picnic and we had had visit to Sainsburys on the way so I had a packet of sweet chilli chicken pieces, a mixed fruit selection (naughty!) and 40g of cheddar cheese that came in those small selection bags. The meal that I missed whilst we were here was a Turkey or Chicken sausage & courgette frittata with salad. I have the chicken sausages in the fridge so hopefully we will use them later in the week.
For a while it was quite hot and after we finished flying our kite or to be more precise after we demolished it in a crash we ended up at the watersports bar for an ice cream! I had a Solero which seemed to be the best of what was on offer at just 98 calories.
The evening meal was Thai coconut chicken curry which included a portion of green beans. The recipe provided by Tesco eDiets didn't say to add any spice to the curry so I added a small touch of Thai red curry paste to give it some pizzaz and instead of rice or noodles I had a cauliflower rice substitute.
I haven't had the snack for today yet either so depending on how it goes this evening I may or may not have the Tuna salad.
I must admit I'm not looking forward to stuffed avacado tomorrow so I'm hoping that once the beef, onion and tomato get into it it'll be alright. I must take more notice as to what is on the menu next week and swap out the meals that I'm not too keen on before ordering my recipe list!
