Isn't always easy! Last night we went to friends for dinner and fireworks - a late Guy
Fawkes/Bonfire Night celebration. The fireworks were fun, even though my coat now smells slightly of
gunpowder! We had mulled wine to warm up with after, and I had a couple of glasses of white wine
with dinner, so that was 6 points... My friend cooked a nice old fashioned steak and kidney pie for
dinner, having forgotten that I no longer eat red meat OR pastry! Still, it was very lean meat, and
I only had a little of the pastry, and it was delicious! We had mash and fresh veg to go with it,
and a cheesecake to follow. I counted 15 points altogether for dinner and wine, and use 6 earlier in
the day for breakfast and lunch, and 2 points for a late snack bar just before bed. So 23 points
altogether: One point over my allowance of 22, and I'd saved 5 from earlier in the week, so it was
no great disaster. I also suffered no particular ills from the richer than usual food, so I think I
did very well.
Sometimes you just have to relax and enjoy! And even after dinner tonight, I'm well under points
for today!
