Well, I did well with my two bowls of cereal for breakfast and lunch. But dinner was a different matter. I was experimenting with cakes for my latest Pool Party page on my find-party-ideas.com website. I made a fun cake using jello as the water in a bathing pool cake design- and it looked pretty good. My problem was the frosting. I wanted something a little different. I thought that something not quite as sweet as regular frosting would counter the sweetness of the jello.
Well, I did quite a lot of tasting (involving cream cheese, heavy cream and vanilla pudding!) which was obviously not very low cal. I purposefully did not add any more sugar, but it proved only a 50% hit. Half my tasters loved the frosting and thought it went well the cake- the other half hated it! And I ended up eating an extra piece to show that I thought it was great. Oh dear- that, combined with the BBQ did not do much for my slimming. But, I did walk for an hour with the dog, and I did do 10 minutes on the Wii (not quite the 30, but better than nothing). Haven't weighed myself as it's early days, and don't see any inches dropping off the waist yet- but we'll see how it goes.
