We went out for a celebratory meal on Saturday night. Once I'd seen the dessert menu I made up my mind I was going to have chocolate fondant (a chocolate sauce-filled chocolate sponge) for pud - come what may! I chose a spicy fishcake for starter. It came with some sweet chilli sauce and a little salad - and was delicious. For main course I chose a goat's cheese pasta dish. This was offered in either 'starter' or 'main' size - and I asked for the small version. It was still quite big though, and I could only manage a little over half of it. I probably could have managed a little more but I was conscious of trying to leave space for my pud!
The pud arrived, the chocolate covered in shiny sauce, just asking to be eaten! I did my best but only managed two thirds of it. A short while later I felt totally stuffed. For the rest of the evening I remained so. Part of me felt guilty, but the other part of me was just lapping up the pure pleasure of eating an absolutely delicious three-course meal!
Goodness only knows how many calories I consumed but I guess I'll have to just do some extra exercise this week......

Hi Theresa,
ReplyDeleteI've been doing some thinking about some features I would like to include in my own blog chronicling my LAP-BAND journey. I would like to link to other bloggers and post a bit about the content of their sites. I would like to write a post about your blog and include a link to it, with your permission. May I?
Thanks :)
Hi Banded Girl,

All the best, Trees
Thanks Theresa! My blog is at http://bandedgirl.com. I think a network of band blogs is a great idea!
