Day 10


I never would have said we were a wasteful family, before this experiment  but we  have definitely been super, super good for the past 10 days. I even noticed it in the bin when we emptied a 1/3 full one for the bin men instead of one where we struggle to put the lid on!! 
Everyones been finishing their meals too, I left a spoonful of something the other day without thinking and hubby called me back to finish it - during ww2 wastefulness  was quite a crime and even punishable by a prison sentence!





Breakfast 

Porridge or toast

Lunch 

Cheese and chutney sandwiches*
* grating the cheese makes it go further, a thin spreading of chutney means you don't need any butter!

Supper

Bubble and squeak and bacon

Day 8 - Week 2 on rationing and weekly Weigh In!


We've made it through our first week of rationing!! We celebrated by, well, staying on the rationing!!

We weighed ourselves this morning...

Weight this week :-
Hubby  = +3.4 kg
Me = - 1.1 kg

I'm not listing the childrens, but will keep an eye on it at home.

We didn't start this as a diet plan, but quite a few people on facebook have asked if we've lost weight so I though we'd include it. I I have no idea how to explain this difference between us? Mines quite obvious , no snacking etc but for hubby to have put on quite a bit is confusing!? The only thing I can think of is that rationing was designed to put  people into their healthiest position, so a slightly underweight hubby may well 'bulk up' on it? where as overweight me would lose weight? what do you think?


Breakfast

Toast & Jam

Lunch

Cheese sarnies, Apple.

Supper

Bunny Pie, Veg, Potatoes , Apple Crumble.

Snacks 

Potato Floddies
