Cheat Day 11 + Madras Curry Recipe

Hello again! Another week, another cheat day, and here we are again - I'm sorry to say that Joe & I totally forgot to do measurements this Sunday once again - I promise we will do those this weekend though and provide an update on that ;) As far as weight loss I am currently holding at the same weight as in prior weigh-ins, 104-ish lbs (will see if there are any changes in that by weigh-in day on Saturday) and Joe is at 190 lbs - just 10lbs away from his goal! So exciting :)

So this week I'll give you the lowdown on our latest cheat day (#11) and a recipe for a delicious Indian curry that is quick and easy to make for all those that are always on the go like myself! And on the suggestion of fellow slow-carbers, I am going to attempt to blog a daily food diary - nothing too fancy or lengthy - just ideas and simple recipes to offer some inspiration to others on the SCD - I can't promise I'll do it every day, but will do my best ;)
