    So we just got our first delivery of one of those kit meal delivery services (Hello Fresh) where they deliver all the ingredients and recipes. I ordered the vegetarian box and am getting it for 3 meals a week.

    Sadly, I always wanted to try this before but I always looked at the calorie counts of the meals and said "no way, too many calories". Now, I don't care!!

    Pretty excited to be getting some different meals and not having to grocery shop for ingredients...

    Will try to remember to take a picture of tonight's dinner...

    My meal tonight. I added the carrots and peas as extra, they didn't come with the delivery. I also had a second serving (though no more mushrooms, they were all gone).

    The dish is called Balsamic Roasted Mushroom 'Steaks' with with Fetta & Zaatar Veggies. The grain is pearl barley. It was pretty darned good - I'm impressed so far...

    I love those mushrooms! I've tried making a pizza with them before by filling up the cavity with sauce, cheese, and stuff. Very yummy!

    So a bit of an uptick for me over the weekend so far (as usual!)... Nothing to worry about.

    We had Indian (so good) and wine on Friday night and last night had pizza (so not-good). The pizza was terrible, soggy and just not nice. This is after putting "Extra crispy, almost burnt" in the instructions - usually they do that, but not this time! I put it in a hot oven when it got here (lucky the oven was hot as I'd just roasted some cabbage...) and it was at least crispy when we ate it. But it was not good pizza for some reason. We still ate (way too much of) it.

    I have to say, I definitely felt cheated on my OMAD - I don't like to waste a meal on something not nice, that's for sure.

    Virtual hug from me to you! Had the same kind of day, my pizza tasted like cardboard *kitten*. Lol

    I have a tiny uptick this weekend as well. Isn't it great to know these things are expected? So much nicer not to panic. :)
    That sucks about the pizza! Maybe it wasn't a pizza weekend!!!

    I had (more) Indian last night and it was beyond delicious... Also saw more uptick on the scale, which was totally expected with the amount of Naan bread (both garlic and cheese) I ate. It's just so good... I actually had a stomach ache from being too full. I definitely don't like that feeling and need to take steps to stop it happening again.. Like when Darcy (my partner) says "do you want another piece of bread?" and I have already made the decision to stop eating because I'm full... Might not be a good idea to grab that piece of bread from him and shovel it, dipped in the curry sauce, of course, into my mouth!! Ha!

    MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM CURRY <3

    I love mushrooms too!... Loved the days when we went out into the countryside to collect them and cook them on the spot... we took a frying pan with us !
