Thread: The Diary Of A Slimming Hippo Called Stacey

Saturday 3rd Nov 2012: Extra Easy Day

Breakfast: 1 banana, bowl of grapes.

Lunch: Low fat super noodles mixed with honey roast ham & 45g low fat cheddar (HEA Choice), followed by a small bowl of grapes.

Snacks: Homemade spicy tomato & red lentil soup, HiFi Deluxe peanut bar (HEB Choice).

Dinner: Beef medallion steak, homemade Actifry chips, lettuce, cucumber, tomato & red onion.

Syns: Velvet crunch chilli crisps (4).

Im really proud of myself today, we went to Go Ape this morning with 20 friends as it was our friends birthday. I took my own snacks and resisted the cafe there, afterwards the others went to burger king & hubby & I went home for our lunch.
we also resisted the Indian restaurant that they all went to tonight and instead enjoyed a steak at home.
I wore my HRM at Go Ape and was amazed that I lost 605 calories in the 2 hours we did the course.
My mother in law came over with some cakes from Birds Bakery and again I resisted and sat with a cuppa and grapes instead

Fabulous willpower MrsWilsoncroft well done

Thanks Hun, we've had chilli twice this week my hubby loves it since I've started sw.
the mustard crisps are from Lidl, I got them today as thought it was something different to try. They are 8 syns for 30g, seems a lot but that tupperware pot is full of them ready for tomorrow and that's my 30g portion
I couldn't take the whole big bag to work with me so that's why I measured them out, I'd end up eating the lot otherwise lol xxx

Good to see you back.

I was actually wondering how you was doing recently as I hadn't seen you about
