Every time I go out, I come back with some extra kilos.
I love to cook (and to eat) and holidays are special times to show my abilities or taste my relations or friends´ cooking.
Yesterday my aunt bid me goodbye with a wonderful corn pie. It is similar to a shepherd´s pie but instead of mashed potatoes it has a corn paste with a bit of basil. She gave me a generous helping and then insisted on seconds. What could I say?
Today I checked my freezer and I´ll have a homemade burger for lunch. The kale is big enough to collect some leaves, so I will boil some leaves to go with it.
Leticia welcomed me with some delicious fried pastries, but today Leticia doesn´t come so I´ll give a great part of it to my youngest daughter who is coming this evening.
And it goes without saying that I will not check my weight until next week.
Pity, I will have to behave in Sunday as there is a barbecue at my daughter´s to celebrate her birthday and my eldest daughter´s birthday.
Any sugestions about diets?

@enlightenedpsych2 Walnuts are wonderful food for the brain. It needs nothing more, six walnuts a day.

I've adopted the habit of eating what I like but smaller portions. This way I don't feel deprived, enjoy what I eat and the scale has been my friend

I do that at home, but I went for a 3 week vacation and then, a couple of weeks later, my aunt onvoted me for a week. The food was too yummy!
