Dizzy chicken

I hit Sainsbury's yesterday, thinking it would take me no time at all. After all, I don't have a very wide choice of what I can eat. It actually took me and hour and a half and I have no clue what I am going to cook my kids or give them for lunch! I did indulge it what my colleague, Emma calls a Dizzy chicken (below) and tucked into it for lunch. Wasn't quite the same as I couldn't eat any of the skin, but it was good nonetheless. For dinner I decided to try an omelette - eggs, milk, ham and seasoning, with a spray of oil for cooking. It was actually very nice, especially with a bit of cottage cheese and the last of Dizzy.

Chicken, omelette and cottage cheese

This morning I thought I should weigh myself again. Big mistake. I think I've only lost another pound. Mind you it is difficult to tell. I've got a set of old-style scales and I can't actually see the tiny lines. I'll need to get one of the kids to help me next time or fork out for a digital set.

Feeling a bit despondent I decided to go for a swim. At first my legs felt like lead weights, but after warming up a bit I felt better and managed my normal swim. Afterwards I was starving and came home and cooked some savoury galletts, that I had with smoked salmon and cottage cheese. Yum. Although I couldn't have eaten it all over again.

Oat bran cookies

I am officially obsessed with the Dukan. After going to an early showing at the cinema, I spent the rest of the evening looking through the book or going on the website and seeing what I could make. I spotted a recipe for Oat Bran Cookies - and they looked nice. I whipped up a batch and they did look nice, but they taste less so. In fact, they taste of absolutely nothing! Oh well. I might try the lemon cheesecake next. It's chicken (again) for dinner, but as I'm sitting writing this, all I can smell is the lasagne I'm cooking for the kids, and it smells sooo nice....
