Low Carb


 

Another week on Low Carb has gone by, 700 grams off this week. I also do some IF (intermittent fasting). Still slowly but surely dropping down.
Non scale victory this week was fitting back into a pair of black jeans. Its great, love my jeans. 
Snooping around on Facebook and I come across a page called lowcarbssosimple and found these dishes. Both were big hits with us all. Chicken broccoli pie I devoured. I also made one using cauliflower instead as half the house don't eat broccoli. The parmesan chicken wings were yummy. Have a look through the page...recipes are all so simple as the heading states.

Work will be a little slower this week thankfully...two new girls have started. My feet are used to it again, and new shoes are helping too 😃

BTW I work because I still have too. Yes, my husband has retired, but he is 8 years older than me. I don't qualify for a pension yet and unfortunately hubby did not have enough superannuation to support us both. Super didn't start for hubby till he was in his 40's, so unless he paid into it to increase it there was never going to be enough for us to survive without added income/pension. We did not have the extra dollars to add. I don't qualify for a pension for another couple of years...so off to work I must go.

  2. You are doing so well on your weight loss plan. My friend is in a similar position to you..her husband can get a pension but he chooses to work he is 74 she is 64 so they both keep working...until they can both retire...can you get an easier job? you have so much on your plate with family and previously taking such good care of your mother and mother in law. I didn't have much super either...really annoying...
