Little*Red's Pregnancy Food Diary (with pics)

Argh today could only be described as bleurgh :sigh: . I was still on plan 100% but feeling like crap due to leaving it about 9hrs between meal times. Took my girlies to the cinema today and resisted all manner of sweet and popcorn, then nothing in mcDonalds afterwards. However by the time we got home from visiting my parents, getting the girls to bed and going for a run i didn't have my dinner until 10pm. Then to top it all off it turned out to be rubbish and a huge waste of syns, but i ate it anyway because i could have eaten the hind leg from a scabby donkey!

Anyways enough of my moaning and to look at a big positive - I lost 0.6lb when i weighed today, so chuffed to bits with that. Started my extra easy week aswell, i don't know if its just me but i find it so much harder to plan for EE as i'm struggling without my second HE's :confused:.
