I have stopped to post my menus during all Holidays, until Epiphany : not a time for DIET

Then I will start my diet again, until … March 5th : Lent ! During Lent, no diet anymore, as you are deprived of so much things you can eat without trouble what is allowed.

[Anthea]

I was avoiding mentioning my food intake until the start of next year - when I will most definitely be starting a diet

I SWEAR after Epiphany I start a new DIET

[Anthea]

After all the hard work you have done to lose weight

You are going to have to starve after eating all that

[Piling]

Sure, Lent will start on March 5th : No meat, no eggs, no milk, no cheese, no butter, no wine. Until April 20th.

So I will open a special thread : My quite Vegan 40 Days recipes

I have stopped eating chocolate

I have even cut down on my large breakfasts - and I no longer dash from my bed to the kitchen cupboards - I wait a couple of hours before I have my breakfast

Baked beans on 2 slices of wholemeal bread - basic but healthy and not too many calories

And of course my 2 cups of sweet black tea - only they are not as sweet as they used to be

[Piling]

breakfast :

2 sweet cafés crème

snack :
1 Belgium chocolate (offered by a colleague)

Dinner :

Chicken couscous, Bourbon.

The colleague told I am thinner than before Christmas
