FridgeRaiders Journey

Hiya all, well i'm pretty new to the forum and thought this would be a great place to do a food diary!

I have done SW a few times before (inbetween pregnancies and life ha ha!) and weighed in at a new group last week at my heaviest ever 15 stone :cry:- didn't have a great start as thanks to dp's birthday on Friday which seemed to follow through to Saturday (wine, indian and pizza!!) shocking i know!!!!! - but back on track now! ;) And thankfully where we've moved too there is a physical work out everyday as it's steep hills to get my daughter to and from school (so obviously i make the journey there and back twice, which is an hour in total! :whacky068: ) And it's hard work ha ha, my legs, shins and bum kill at the moment and it really gets me out of breath and my heart absolutley racing so it's all good!

Hey, I think your diary looks really great.
Really well organised.
Well done you!

Hope it goes well for you...

(Im really pleased too as I had NO idea Olives were so low in syns. I adore them and have to stay away but I didnt know I could have 8 of them for 1 syn! Amazing!!! Now I just have to find out about the ones stuffed with garlic cloves!)
 
Sunday
B - 2 Slices Grilled Smoked Bacon, Scrambled Eggs, Mushrooms and Beans, Green tea with Mango

Snack - Apple and Cheese (HEA)

L - Homemade Stilton, Celery and Broccoli Soup 5.5

D - Beef Stew (braising steak, leeks, parsnip, swede, brussel sprouts, carrots, worctershire sauce, thyme, oxo, gravy 1) Celeriac, Potato and Horeseradish Mash 3.5 (clover and creamed horseradish sauce)

HEA - 2 cranberry and yoghurt light hifi bars


Good, you seem to be getting plenty of Superfree. You sure the gravy was only 1 syn? Seems very low, but I dont know how you made it. Your HiFi Bars are a HEXB, not A, but I assume this was just a typo. Looks very good provided everything was measured etc.

Monday 14th Nov

B - 2 soft boiled eggs, 1 slice wholemeal toast HEB buttered 2, Green tea with Blueberries and Raspberries

Snack - Apple

L- Tuna Pasta Bake (Tuna, Pasta, Passatta, Mushrooms, Red Onion, Courgette, Dried Oregano, Fresh Basil, Garlic, Balsamic Vinegar) HEA Cheese , 2 Finger Kit Kat 5.5, Green Tea with Blueberries and Raspberries

D - Gammon Steak, Pineapple, Hasslback Potatoes, Peas

Snack - Grapes


All looks good. Was the pineapple fresh or tinned? If it was tinned you have to syn it. If fresh I expect it still wasnt enough to count as 1/3 superfree but I really dont think its an issue given how much youve been eating for the rest of the day!

Tuesday 15th November (Meal Plan)

B - Pineapple, Grapes, Kiwi and Raspberries, Natural Yoghurt, Green Tea

L - Egg Mayonnaise and Watercress Wholemeal Roll HEB,

D - Spaghetti Bolognese (extra lean mince, passatta, tinned toms, balsamic vinegar, garlic, oregano, thyme, basil, courgette, celery,) HEA Cheddar


Lunch - I assume you made this yourself - did you measure & syn the mayo? Was there enough watercress to count as 1/3 superfree? I would have had this with more salad, mixed veg etc. (Again not much of an issue given how much youve eaten the rest of the day!)
Again everything else looks great as long as you measured the right amounts eg 28g for cheddar, 57g for wholemeal roll etc. Looks all extremely healthy! :) I think you should fit a few more syns in though, its supposed to be a minimum of 5 a day. You also seem to be eating quite a bit less today - just fruit for breakfast and a roll for lunch? and no snacks? It would be nowhere near enough for me.

Thursday

B - Melon, Pineapple, Grapes, Kiwi, Green Tea with Mango, one large glass water

L - Sliced Ham, Pear and Hifi Bar

D - Homemade Chilli (leftover from midweek) with Rice and HEA Cheese

French Fries 4
HiFi Bar 6


I would say youre not eating anywhere near enough here. Youve only really had one proper meal, and very few syns. Your HiFi Bar is your HEXB as you havent had one otherwise.Your breakfast and lunch should be snacks tbh! You must make sure youre eating enough. Not eating enough will make it very hard to lose, just as much as eating too much does.
