[STRIKE]B: Yogurt, frozen cherries, cuppa tea
L: Dunno yet. I suspect GIANT Baked Mushroom with bolognese sauce over it,. [/STRIKE]
D: Chicken fillets from Marks, noodles, veggies, Morrison value curry sauce.
S: HEA Milk, HEB HiFi Bar X 2 (one at meeting)

UNLEASHING THE BEAST!
So Day 1 of Success Express on Thursday
B: Choc weetabix (HEB1+2 Syns), 250ml milk (HEA1) Yoghurt, cherries
L: 2 Slices Hovis toasted (HEB2 + 3 syns), packet of crisps to make crisp sarnie (5.5), banana, apple, plum
S: Plum
D: Beansprouts (about 1/2 a pack) aubergine, mushroom strifried
S: Alpen bar (3.5)
Syns for the day: 14 in total
Weight this AM: 14st 0.5lbs, same as weigh in scales last night.
Can I just say, today was a NIGHTMARE. I had packed my bread and my tin of tomatoes. Got to ward only to discover no toaster. So no toast and tomatoes. So we go to the canteen, which because I'm second break I have a choice of Chips, Steak pasty, or beans. That was it.
I asked them to toast my bread. No. But I would pay. No its "outside" food. Fair enough, can they toast 2 bits of their bread then? No. Toasters off.
Screw it. I buy a packet of low cal cheese and onion and put them on my unclean outsiders bread. Have a piece and crisps. Which was okay actually just not filling, so ate a load of fruit.
Played trumpet trouser for the rest of the shift due to crisp and fruit combo.
Home after shift ate a plum in the car, couldn't face coming home to cook after shift so just stirfried some veggies and crawled into bed. Then was starving so had an Alpen light bar.
The day came in under the 15 system, but I still feel a bit bleugh. Not quite the start I was looking for.

Oooft not filled this in for ages. Today was a not bad day but involved a few bad choices and a complete lack of measuring.
B: None - nothing in post Christmas visiting.
L: Huge Greek salad with lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, 10% fat Feta and some black olives
s: Cool Doritos with salsa
D: 2 slices pepperoni pizza and a bowl of melon, blueberries, grapes and vanilla Onken.
Going to get back on track, but the nausea is proving hard to plan for an I'm loving things one day and off them the next.

Sorry Donna!
Kinda stopped a few weeks back, had loads of stuff on with hospital placement, exams, missed loads of SW meetings, fell off the wagon.
Also I'm now 12 weeks pregnant so not really been following SW much, just trying to eat what I can when I can due to nausea, some days thats good, some days not so good.
However I resolve to try and be a bit more accountable, and after Midwife appt next week will be rejoining as don't want to put on stones and stones and stones whilst pregnant.
So today:
B: Kelloggs Just Right and 1% milk (no idea of syns)
S: Melon
L: Meeting a friend in Paisley
S: More melon and some fat free natural yoghurt
D: Sweet potato, carrot and bean soup (home made)

Tried to be reasonably healthy today, MS put paid to that at end of day though
B: 1/2 a melon, mug of milk
L: Egg in a cup, one slice toast, apple
D: Side of mixed veggies, Free steak burger, bacon and cheese. Managed the veggies and took massive boak at the burger.
Ended up having a slice of bread with jam and butter, and then some reduced fat light icecream (70 cals for 2 scoops).
Might try and manage a bowl of bean and veggie soup later when watching tele.
