i_dream_slim's food diary! Extra Easy Baby!

[I_dream_slim]

4lbs off!!!

Happy with that-i feel ive eaten loads-never hungry and have even managed a kit kat a day-cant be bad!!?! and eating out-although on plan-but stil-not deprived!!

Group was good last week-getting more confident so looking forward to next weeks loss and group.

Camping this weekend so slightly nervous about that as im not in control of cooking-gonna take some bars with me and just try to be as sensible as possible. Will avoid extra treats as hopefully that will mean my syns are included in the grub (ie the fact that spag bol will be cooked in oil etc) Should be fine-might allow myself one treat at some point once i know the proper menu!!! Wish me luck!!

Well back from weekend trip. Quite hard to follow plan properly as all food being provided-but home cooked so options available. Did my best. NO snacks, biccies or alcohol and because i factored syns into main meals no puddings (unfortunately). Ive entered last couple of days food into online diary and think there may only be one day where i went over syns by about 4. Am quite impressed with this. Also when i think that i pretty much stood up the entire trip and was very active im hoping everything will even itself out and scales wont be too bad. Ate very differently to the last time i camped!!

So anyway...Today!

Breakfast
2 slices nimble bread (hex b)
2 tsp flora light - 2 syns
1 poached egg
mushrooms
chopped tomatoes
2 morrisons eat smart sausages 1/2 syn each-1 syn
Tea with milk (hex a)

Snack
Cup of tea
Milky bar - 3.5 syns

Lunch
1/2 batchelors rice (chicken flavour) with chicken breast meat and steam fresh veg.

Dinner
Cottage pie - ex lean beef mine, carrots, onions and topped with mashed pot (1 syns for flora light) and served with ratatouie (with courgettes from the garden!!), steamed brocolli and more courgettes

Then with my flu i dont think ive been eating/drinking enough these past couple of day as i cant be bothered-we shall see!!

Breakfast
2 ryvita + 1/2 hifi bar (hex b)
2 dairylea triangles (hex a - going to starbucks later so have allowed for small amount of skimmed milk in my healthy a)

Snack
banana
strawberries
fat free yoghurt

Lunch
scrambled egg and smoked salmon
1 slice hovis soft white bread - 5 syns (comfort food)
1 tsp flora light - 1 syn

snack
starbucks coffee black + sugar free syrup + couple of dash's of skimmed milk (rest of hex a)

If peckish before weigh in will snack on some melon.

Will report back with weigh in later, x

Have been thinking of coming back to Slimming World for a while now and reading this helped, thank you. I can't remember why I even went over to WW.

I have never done extra easy either but am going to give it a go.

Some good meal ideas on here too

Hiya!! Thanks emz!! I'm a novice but enjoying it!!

Happy to share my new found EE knowledge in any way so any questions ask away!!! Once you have in your head an idea of what's free then you can really go to town!! Have you decided to start? How much weight do you wanna shift? Xx

 

[Slim.Emz87]

I seem to be confused about superfree foods. Is it just fruit and veg or are there other things too?

I think I am going to give a go again, although probably not until tomorrow now.

Want to lose another 1.5stone to 2stone and get down to between 9st 7 and 10st.

Reading other peoples success stories really is encouraging me.

How is it working for you and how long have you been doing SW now?

x

 

[I_dream_slim]

This is my 3rd week. 2nd Weigh in last night and I've lost 8.5 lbs in 2 weeks!

Superfree is all fresh and frozen fruit and most veg ( pots, peas, corn on the cob etc whilst stil free aren't SF!)

Hope that makes sense- have you got the books? It explains it a lot better than me in there, xxx

 

[Slim.Emz87]

I have a book from when I originally done SW back in 2008. It has a list of all superfree foods and free foods depending on which day you follow. So I am thinking on an EE day you could have potatoes and chicken as long as a third of the plate is full with superfree veg or salad?

Also, in the superfree section is mentions very low fat natural yogurt or very low fat natural fromage frais....is that superfree?

Sorry for the questions.

Definitely gonna give it a go and keep a diary on here. Here gos, fingers crossed x

 

[I_dream_slim]

Ff yog and cottage cheese etc is free but not supeefree.

Yeah basically a third of your plate should be superfree veg or salad. Or for example at brekkie you could have beans on nimble (hex b) followed by a fruit salad ( so the fruit would make up your third but you wouldn't have to put it on your plate) xx
