Doubletrouble - food diary

[doubletrouble]

Hi my name is Tracy and started SW at home on the EE plan last week - I do have some old books that a friend gave me so am using them as well as this site. I weigh in on a Sunday which unfortunately this week showed that I had only STS and cried my eyes out last night. :cry:

I have since found out today by my doctor (as had blood tests last week) that my thyroid isn't quite right so I have to increase my medication.

Anyway, putting that aside I have start EE plan again today and will post my food diaries on here. For now have just put my breakfast and lunch and will add my dinner later.

Please feel free to take a look at my food diaries and let me know if I am going wrong anywhere.

Thank you.

Great diary. What is a mugshot please?
Thanks

They are quick and easy meals you can have in a mug for which you just add water , they come in various flavours and you can have either pasta or noodle. Very nice and filling, see the thread below:

Really should read books properly as thought could use granary bread as HEB when I had a tuna mayo sandwich, but oh no, that is not a HEB....then had a few alcoholic drinks at lunch as was a friends 50th birthday, which thought okay not too bad, but then went out for tea with hubby to end up having a few more drinks and wait for it................sticky toffee pudding (did enjoy it though)​

Sorry but gave that day up as a bad job as no idea how many syns have used altogether:cry:​

everything looks okay to me there! it's really necessary to make sure you have the latest books so you know the correct weights and measurements etc! i have a food directory from 2007 and now i've got the 2012 one and the changes are mad! xx

I've not joined a group so don't have the up to date books. Just going on the books a friend gave me which does have the EE plan in them, so not sure what year there!

Thank you for looking at my diary and I'm pleased it looks okay so far
