Wanna Go Large? Moussaka, and January 10k steps a day challenge look back

So the first day of February has been a bit of a disaster - I've done at least 11,500 steps which is great but every meal has been portion+.
This morning I had the end pieces of bread for toast which are thicker than standard slices.
Lunchtime I had some leftover homemade Moussaka which was a portion plus some leftover mince mixture - the recipe I followed serves a family, or more precisely a Greek family with six people, so I had surplus moussaka mince mixture and cheese sauce and no space in the freezer - there was no way I was going to let it go to waste so it went to my waist instead.....
Dinner was lots of pizza and dough balls.
Throw in some snacks and a cappuccino and despite my steps I am almost 500 calories over for the day.......

I should add that that Moussaka took two hours to make from scratch so whilst I was not moving stepwise, I was active beating the living daylights out of the cheese bechamel sauce.
Below serves five with a green salad and a standard portion clocked in at a nice 600 calories.

Recipe by Akis Petretzikis who's website is akispetretzikis.com - note a lot is in Greek language but there is plenty in English as well and search for Moussaka, or alternatively go to Jamie's FoodTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_GcsR7Q99s.

Recipe has enough for a sixth portion.

January total steps was 25k short of the 310k steps needed to achieve an average of 10k steps a day with the first and last week being the best clocking close to 11k but the middle of the month was nearer an average of 8.5k.
I enjoyed the challenge and what it has revealed is that 10k a day without running is only really achievable during a working day, so weekends and school/bank holidays are more likely to be a lot less than 10k.
