Boo it's monday again and i didnt win the lotto so off to work i go!
At least i am off mid week for ds2 birthday (he is 2!) So something to look forward to. Im not sure if i will make it to weigh in this week, the house is upside down as i spent all weekend on my cabinet lol. So a major clean up operation is required which will inevitably lead to ds1 asking who is coming to visit? :p It seems even he knows that the house only gets a once over when guests are expected lol.

Plan for today

B porridge yogurt and fruit (pomegranete yum!)
L- picked up a wee salad in m&s carrot and wholegrain or similar. I cant find it on syns online? Prob a couple of ryvitta dark rye with it.
Snacks are fruit salad, yogurts and ryvitta with dairylea.
D- not sure what this will be yet but probably something quick like potatoes beans and sausages!
 
Hey all hope everyone is well!

I have been awol the past few weeks trying out the new sw 5:2 diet i have devised- 5 days off plan 2 days on lol. I havent been very good and i have skipped a few weigh ins as well which is bad of me but been too chicken to face the scales.

Still i really need to start logging diaries even if they are awful! It does make me think twice about that second cream merengue...

Will try and get caught up with diaries and try to post a few updates of my own.
 
Tuesday plan

Breakfast porridge and yogurt with fruit or ryvitta and cheese.

Lunch ff supernoodles and baked beans.

Dinner if i go to weigh in it will be something quick for afterwards like pasta n sauce with veg, nothing too exciting. I meant to make a pot of stew last night, wish i had made the effort now!

1 celebration 1.5 syns
Advent calendar choc 1.5 syns??
Usual yogurt and fruit etc. for snacks during the day, hea of milk in tea.

Happy new year to everyone!

I am back on it after a couple of weeks off! Had a lovely christmas and was very good but lost it a bit over the new year and probably put on a few pounds. I am not that worried It will soon come off.

Hoping to be a bit better at updating again. Got a bit bored with it tbh at the end of last year and work was manic so too tired to update on the train!

Monday

Breakfast porridge (heb) water and yogurt. 2 oranges.
Lunch was leftover quorn lamb curry with veg and couscous. Delicious and free!
Dinner was sticky chilli chicken (quorn) made with onions garlic quorn soy sauce worst'rsauce peas green beans and sweet chilli with actifry chips. 4 syns for the lot and tasted just like chinese takeaway.

Had a hot choc and mini roll for supper 7 syns.
Bit low on my hex yesterday hadnt realised or i would have had cereal bar instead of mini roll.

Tuesday

Another day on plan so far!
So tired this morning i had a bit of a lie in and reset the alarm 3 times!

Breakfast was 2 slices wm bread and 2x dairylea light triangles. 2 oranges.

Lunch was pasta n sauce 0.5 syn plus green beans. Had an apple before leaving work.

Dinner will probably be quorn pepprred steak and something quick. I am thinking of throwing a tin of baby potatoes and some veg and seasoning into the actifry and seeing how it turns out. They might go to mush but it could be tasty. I will report back.

I will probably have a hot choc and a wee treat before bed, will see how i feel might use my other heb on some toast instead.

It def feels good to be back on plan and eating better. I think though i will give up on going to class and try doing it at home myself again. Tbh i wasnt staying to image therapy and it seems a bit much to be paying to step on some scales. Instead i am going to put the money in a pot and uae it towards a night away or something nice later in the year.

I will weigh in tonight anyway as i have been going to a tuesday class. Hopefully the christmas damage hasnt been too bad....

Well i weighed in last night and had put on around 2lb so not too awful, easier to gain than lose though!

Had the actifry potatoes for tea and they were quite tasty. Could have done with another 10mins to make them nice and crispy but veg would not have been as nice then. 3 syns for the lot (half tbsp of olive oil) and had a quorn peppered steak. Had half last night and the leftovers are todays lunch.

Had jam and toast ( heb plus 6 syns) for supper.
