Despite a busy and annoying day at work, my dieting week is off to a good start. TMM wasn't working, so he had dinner ready when I got home. Smoked fish, boiled baby potatoes, carrots and broccoli, with garlic extra low fat mayo. It's a really low calorie dinner and left me enough of my daily allocation to finish my bar of dark chocolate, with some spare.
To be honest, I wonder about the sanity of eating "lighter than light" mayo, just as I doubt that diet colas or any fizzy drink are healthy, despite their low cal nature. Goodness knows what alchemy has to take place for a low cal mayo to emulsify and so it looks like the real thing. I've made real mayo. It's delicious and good for a body, in small amounts obviously, as it's also very high in fat and calories. But the stuff I used today is very chemical in nature. Can't be good for me. I did douse it with loads of fresh garlic. I will stink later :-)
