Weight 2011 - menu week 1

In our family we often have the problem that we don't know what to eat. Often this leads to a trip to the store to buy something or in worst case ready food being brought home. As a part of weight 2011 we are trying something different.

We started using a week menu with recipes and make sure all ingredients are at home. Then it is just a case of doing the recipes. This week has had some nice food:
- Homemade meatballs with brown sauce and potatoes
- potato and artichoke soup with mushrooms and parsley dip. not so nice, but we used the wrong kind or artichoke
- shrimp pasta with dill
- ginger marinated chicken with lime yoghurt
- roast tenderloin with garlic cottage cheese and olive sallad

Funny thing is that due to the recipes and measured portions i seem to eat less and have an easier time not overeating. Funny, trying to lose weight by thinking more about food.

Anyway, we continue next week. Tomorrow is the end of the first week for weight 2011. I had a good week and did only eat my meals, nothing exta (except one "bulle" during "fika"). Have good hopes for my weight tomorrow!
