It was overly lush GabriellaG - hence my walk of shame. And mabon1 you are probably right - compared to most posters on here it seems I am a greedy guts.
A much more measured (and alcohol free) day today.
Still, I did have a great day yesterday enjoying it all ... ?

My breakfast was similar to Gabriella's. Need a bit of fuel for some outdoor jobs and dog walking.
Lunch will be braised chicken breast with root vegetables and cabbage, one roast potato and a 
No pudding but I might have a yoghurt at teatime.
GF crumpets with marmite for supper and a couple more glasses of wine while watching telly.
We’ve got loads of leeks in our allotment, Willow. I’ll wheel some over.
Maybe mabon’s just joking, Nannylovesshopping? Or maybe not. 
I’m just glad to see some of the latest contributors are gourmets (greedy guts) like me.

Nine if that is properly filling.
Try having a bowl of oatmeal or granola, sliced banana and blueberries to start your day or avocado on sourdough with 2 poached eggs.
Root mash and greens with your fish at lunchtime and an oatcake with peanut butter mid afternoon.
Baked potato in the evening with tuna mayo or beans or quiche, pasta etc.
You need carbs in moderation to make you feel sated.
Sugary stuff will just give you a temporary spike which will cause you to want another one and another....
without actually filling you up.
These are only patterns I follow as I have no qualifications in nutrition to be able to advise.
I love reading what everybody's been eating!
I fear another bottomless pit day - it's only 11.20 
Have friends coming for lunch, all big eaters and drinkers however I've already done a 90 minute walk so that should cancel out a glass or two of wine 
It's so interesting to see exactly what others eat in a day. I'm beginning to realise why I'm a stone over weight...
F'r instance, yesterday, porridge with raspberries and blueberries for breakfast, a couple of cups of tea and a satsuma; lunch at a local pub with visiting niece and gt nephew comprised a chicken fajitas sizzler, no pud..yet. Then at a coffee shop that afternoon, a blackberry crumble slice thing with another cuppa.
Later that evening, TWO pieces of the too-delish Aldi Christmas cake bar and a cheese sandwich on wholemeal (one slice only though). I think it's the evenings that are my downfall.
Today so far, two cups of tea and a satsuma.
