I feel like a rolly polly :-( Time to do something :-)

[My-year2012]

Tomorrow the plan is to meet a couple of friends and go to the transport museum in the morning.

I've been to it many timse as hubby get free tickets from work and it one of those places when we have guest we take them.

One of my friend's had a birthday and she's never been, so thought I would take her. I also invited along a friend from Uni as she is here studying from India. My Uni friend is really excited and has mentioned she looks forward to going and we must have an ice cream together afterwards.....hmmmmmm...will have to think of a way to over come this. It wont be easy because with this heat wave I have been dying for one .

 

[Hev_Sparrow]

I know what you mean with heatwaves and ice creams! Maybe still have one, but just be careful what you have? Soleros are only like 5 syns, or Calippos etc are fairly low?

Sounds like a nice day though, have fun

Day 11

We made our early start, now just heading back. Been in car most of time.

Breakfast
Coffee (HEA) in the car

Got to my friends around 11 at wich point i had a BANANA

Lunch
I think when i am out and about i worry about having the wrong things that i suppress my hunger.

Coffee (HEA)
The kids had pizza , my LO just eat all the cheese , tomato, I had her crust (HEB). I hope its okay to count it had my HEB. It was not even a quarter pizza just a very small slice.

Got home giving myself a half hour turnaround to leave for work.

Melon

Dinner
Home from work and very glad the weekend is here. With the humid warm weather i fancy a fizzy drink. All we have in the fridge is a Fanta

Fanta (7.5syns)
Pasta Salad: penne pasta, 2 x boiled eggs, cucumber, ham slices (3.5syns), 100g cottage cheese (0.5 syn)

Exercise: Squat challenge(110) - Done

TOTAL: 1 x HEA &HEB, 11 syns

The ham slices are not like typical British ones, the calories content is not written but its fully meat with the usual other stuff they use to maintain it.

Anybody know any preservatives in cold meats that cause high syns?

I was like this in the first 2-4 weeks. It's the fruit/veg that's doing it! I put up with it and just apologised profusely haha! It does go away I promise- it's just a lot of changes taking place!

Good to know....I guess it may be the sugars being broken down.

Normally if i had this in the past I know it would be down to eating and drink a load of crap.

My first few weeks were like this - honest to god I can eat as much crap as I like and no adverse effects, a bit of fruit & veg and my stomach gurgles like nobody's business! It has settled down now, though this week might be bad again since I was so off plan last week!

Beef burger

Total: 1 x HEA & HEB, 2.5 syns

Today I haven't had much of an appetite. Day went well a chilled one mostly at home and later at work.

Tomorrow is my second weigh in. I would love for a 2.5 loss to get me to half a stone total loss.

I still haven't had a good bowel movement this week and I feel like I need too but no success, despite the crazy offensive gas I have.

My knee is acting up so need to be cautious with my squats. Back when I was in school and played netball I had a fall and I torn a ligament. Then for 5yrs doctors said there was nothing wrong despite my knee always giving way.

Finally they listen did a mri and so my ligament was torn a typical injury with footballers too. Then when they operated the found that my knee give way had been eroding my knee cap cartilage. Ever since even a night of dancing or a swim can have my knee swollen the next day.

sorry for long story
