Well I thought I would start posting my food diary as a way to keep me on track... I have a very short attention span so don't know how long I will keep it up LOL.

Gosh has it really been that long since I've been on here or last attempted to stick to plan? I started back 4 weeks ago, so far had 3 Monday night weigh ins and lost 11lbs so far. I'm a very happy and motivated bunny!

So Day 1 week 4 was yesterday and I had:

Breakfast - 2 weetabix with semi-skimmed milk, didn't drink my brew as left for work early to go to Aldi for fruit.

Spent the morning chomping through loads of cherries and 1.5 litres of water.

1pm tea break - banana & finally a cup of tea

More cherries & water

3pm lunch - WW beef & veg hotpot 5 syns, strawberry Mullerlight diet coke

Very helpful diary. Thanks for sharing. I'm going to try to have more meals liek you are doing with the fruit. I tend to eat it with my 3 meals atm and think your approach may suit me better

I think the key to SW is not going hungry, need to keep the metabolism moving and grazing on fruit helps with that.

Week 4 Day 2
Breakfast - tomatoes, mushrooms, baked beans, syn free sausages & bacon with a cup of tea.

Snacks through the morning early after noon - banana, nectarines with lots of water

Lunch - salad of lettuce, tomatoes, beetroot, cucumber, red pepper, carrots & ham with a glass of sugar free squash

Snack through the afternoon and early evening - 2 rocky road hi-fi bars (HEB), melon, grapes, apricots, nectarine & peach with lots of water to drink and a glass or 2 of sugar free lemonade.

Supper - Bacon & tomato baked risotto from the All in One Extra Easy Cookbook (apparently this is sold out and not being reprinted, which is a shame as it's my favourite ever SW cookbook) with sugar free squash
