Tuesdays Diary

Day before big weigh in at the gym so therefore i am sticking to The Plan with a passion!

B: x 4 ryvita (HEB) x 5 Light Laughing Cow Triangles (HEA) and marmite
L: Salad - with Boiled Egg (was very tasty, added pickled onions, grapes and kiwi)
T: I have some chicken in the fridge - not 100% sure what to have with it yet as will shop in Tescos in the morning - if it stays this warm it may be salad again. - Ok so this is not happening and husband has dug up some spuds from the garden, Jacket Potatoe and Baked Beans for me tonight

Lots of fruit as always to snack on - and some Alpen lights will be brought for the other HEB. No plans on any syns at present... but gave in to a packet of BGTY Cheese and Onion Crisps (4.5 syns) - the desire to eat the other three packets from the multi pack is extremely strong at the moment

Wednesday Diary

Not feeling totally focused today - however will give it my best!

Thursday Menu - and the weekend.........

Breakfast - porridge (HEB), milk (HEA)
Lunch: This is where it will all go not to plan - I leave work around 12 tomorrow and will pop into Tescos to get the food for Cambridge Folk Festival as we leave at 1.30 ish. I will probably grab a couple of Alpen light bars before I go and i have fruit at work for the morning.

I have semi planned for the weekend as we shall be under canvas until Sunday - basically green meals for the evening:

1. quorn sausages, smash and baked beans
2. pasta with dolmio stir in sauce (light)
3. Batchelors microwave rice (will warm through in pan), need to find something in a time to go with this in Tescos.

I shall stock up on Alpen lights, fruit - and avoid the biscuit aisle!
