Hello!
Firstly thanks for reading!
I started Slimming world a week ago and managed to gain 2 pounds eeek! I've got 4-5 stone to lose so need those scales to be heading the right direct .... I've been sticking the plan and will continue to for a month to see the outcome however I though maybe it's worth putting up an average day to see if there's something i'm doing wrong that i'm not aware of!!
So ....
Firstly I get up at 6 ... take the dogs for a walk for 40 minutes then off to work
Breakfast is either: 2 alpen light bars and a banana (HE) or 30g dorset cereal (HE) religiously weighed out with a weight watchers greek yogurt (2syns) and a banana.
Mid morning is a skinny latte (HE)
Lunch is a large portion of veg from night before so today its cabbage, carrots, beetroot a couple of potatoes (3 syns as a pack with flavouring) 3 small eggs boiled, tablespoon of fat free dressing (1 syn for quantity) some rockett, Yogurt if not had one at lunch
Mid afternoon pear and hot chocolate from machine (4 syns)
4:30 get home walk the dogs for an hour
Dinner is pretty much the same as lunch 1/2 plate of veg be it carrots/cabbage/broccoli/asparagus/peas/cauliflower all cooked with no fat, with quorn pieces maybe an egg, small portion of potatoes/rice/pasta (less than 1/4 plate full)
Supper a hot chocolate - options (3 syns) and danoe yogurt and or fruit if hungry
So sins are around 10 mark and being a veggie most of the time the % of FF on a plate is more than 1/3 I'm getting daily exercise, its not that time of the month and i can feel the gain of weight so its def not inches lost pounds gained.
It's a lot of food but even when I put it into myfitnesspal its never over 1600 calories so it should still result in loses I think?!
As before any advice greatly received
