Sunday roast beef & Yorkshire pudding


Here's our Sunday ROAST BEEF DINNER with all the trimmings and a very tasty gravy (made from the roasting juices with fat removed). We did have a lot of different vegetables - surprised ourselves just how many!
From Monday to Thursday (if you follow our weight loss method) the same meal with boiled vegetables should easily fit into the day's calorie allowance as it works out at approximately 500 calories. The Sunday roast would be around 800 calories, but it's very filling.
With plenty of beef left over, we did just that and enjoyed a similar meal last night. Compare both meals and you will see the difference. We reheated the beef by placing it in a saucepan with the gravy and heating until piping hot. Add some freshly cooked vegetables and you're away.
TIP: You can buy individual packets of frozen, sliced roast beef in gravy, and if I recall, they are very low in calories and won't break the budget.
I'm not sure what will happen to the last of the beef? There's enough for a salad/sandwich or even a beef hotpot or pie. Depending on how much time we have, will depend on how we eat it.
Losing weight eating the food we love! 
REMEMBER: We all have a calorie allowance - why not find out what yours is? We like to post our main meals to show you what CAN be eaten. 
You won’t find us posting every last morsel though – but we hope this gives you an idea of how far calories can go!

Sunday roast and celebrations

We have this rib roast occasionally, usually when there is something to celebrate. It's been a fabulous day, and we've eaten what we want. There was chocolate cheesecake and carrot cake to follow - and we tucked in.
Because our weight loss method is so flexible, we can enjoy life and join in with days like this. It's all part of life - so why not go with the flow. Our weight loss doesn't get in the way and we can always return to it another day.
We've had a quite a few of these days since we began losing weight - and they haven't dented our enthusiasm or weightloss. I would say they actively spur us on! Because after all that enjoyment, we generally find a greater enthusiasm to be good.

Tomorrow we will return to a few good days (possibly with a little more enthusiasm) - and our weightloss will continue.
Here's our finished dish - and you can see we ate everything! We didn't count calories either....
