As feared, the number of steps done on Saturday was a measly 3k, possibly one of the lowest on record - I had great plans to be actively doing stuff in the house and spent most of it on the PC - the mental fortitude to do something was not there.
Today, whilst I woke up later than planned, I was braved the blustery cold weather and did 4 miles jog, and whilst it couldn't recover the 7k steps deficit from yesterday, I still did 75k steps in one week, an average of 10.7k steps per day.
If you like to make your own soups, I made a cracking soup this weekend and the recipe came from last week's weekly Lidl magazine - also on its website http://www.lidl.co.uk/en/10103.htm - it says it serves two but we got three very generous portions out of it, so more likely to serve four comfortably with some bread.
My only suggestion is if like me you use vegetable stock cubes to make the stock, make half of it as veg stock and the other half as hot water, as the stock cubes could overpower the soup.
I ran it through myfitnesspal and it comes out as about 250 calories per portion. A bit high in sodium but if you cut back the stock cube as I suggest then that will come down. It has over half your vitamin C, a fifth of your dietary fibre, and 10% of your protein but thats the goodness of kale for you.
