PRAWN COCKTAIL

Prawn cocktail is very low in calories - as long as you measure out the sauce! You can buy a ready made cocktail sauce or make your own using half tomato sauce and half mayonnaise.
Instead of putting this in a cocktail glass, I plated it up. It looks bigger, and I included boiled egg.
As this salad is under 300 calories, I added some bread and butter. I prefer to eat a good lunch between 400 and 500 calories because I know if I don't, I'll be heading for a snack mid afternoon. We prefer to cut back just a little when we've over indulged and the weight has always disappeared after a few days.
After a long weekend away, enjoying ourselves and relaxing, we need to be pretty vigilant about what we are eating for just a few days. But, that doesn't mean we can't eat great food. Good nutrition will reward you in the end. Food cravings (so we have found) are our body's way of telling us to eat a particular food - perhaps a missing nutrient or two!
REMEMBER: We all have a calorie allowance - do you know yours?
We began our weight loss journey in January 2011 - and began our blog in June 2011. Here's a link to the first post. (here's the link).
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! I'm currently going through the photographs and replacing them with more website friendly versions which will allow the blog to load quickly.
