Hi megs! Hope you've had a good day. If you are vegetarian I am sure green days would suit you. The book says on a green day to have two healthy b choices and one or two a choices. When I first did sw about 10 years ago I did mostly green days and always had four He's and lost 3 stone (2 children later its all back on hence why I'm back!) As I'm feeding my son at the moment I get 4 additional HEs so I eat 6 HEs on am extra easy day or 8 on a green day - it took me a while to believe I could eat them all and still loose weight but now I make full use of them .

Do you feel hungry on the plan as you don't seem to eat much to me? I wish I could eat less but that's why I love sw as I can keep going until I'm full! I'm having my first meal out tonight since starting the plan (3 months!) So I'm a bit nervous but its sushi so I'm thinking I can't go too overboard with that!

Hi, i'm trying to eat abit more in the last few days, as i am starting to think that although i am losing i am starting to lose slowly, like 1lb at a time. So i had thought i wasn't eating enough.
I am sure for you reading my food diary it sounds like i eat hardly anything, but for the past 3 weeks i have been covering my colleague at work (he has gone travelling), so this means working at night :-S with no dayshift.
Basically i don't get up very early, as that leaves me tired at night. i would prefer to have a few hours relaxing when i finish my shift, rather than relaxing before i start. So i would be up around 12 ish & that gives me 4 hours before work starts. i then work 10.5 hours.
So most of my eating on those days is done during working hours, the only eating i do apart from that is just some breakfast, i wouldnt be up early enough to have breakfast & lunch at home. Its all abit upside down lol. Next week though i am back to normal, so we'll see if that makes a difference.
When you're trying to lose weight it is difficult to put your faith in the plan & eat & still lose weight, i guess it comes from the old mentality that you must reduce your eating to lose weight.
I think i will knock the extra easy days on the head, with being vegetarian it makes more sense to do green days
Congrats on ur initial weight loss, i'm sure you will do equally well this time around xo

 

[headingforslimdom]

Wow, that must be so tough doing so many nightshifts and staying super organised with your food! Hope you enjoy your green days and extra HEs! I'm so used to mine now I don't know what i'll do when I cut them down!.roll on next week for you and some daytime shifts!

Hi there
It's not a very big portion as the sultanas weigh quite heavy, but i have it with a banana & it's delicious x

 

[Megs]

Whoops, weetabix oaty bars are 3.5 syns, i put 3 by mistake. So that takes today's total to: 12.5 syns (May 31st).

Hi Diary readers i haven't forgotton you, i had just been posting my diary as part of a challenge i had been doing for May.
I find it a useful wee tool, i may continue with it, i haven't decided yet xx

 

[Megs]

Hi all, decided to do a diary today.
June 6th already, Summer is coming!
I was away for 3 lovely days at the weekend, it was blissful. Tried my best foodwise, but sometimes you just have to loosen the reigns. So...i'm firmly back on the S.W. trail today & hoping 3 good days before Thursday's weigh in will redeem me somewhat
So here goes with todays effort. Green Day:
2 x Ryvita Fruit crunch (HEx B)
Banana
Pear
Coffee x 2 (hex milk & splenda)
250ml semi skimmed milk (HEx A)
20 whole cashew nuts (HEx B)
3 x mini Babybel light (HEx A)
Another pear
Half a Melon
Strawberries
Muller light yogurt
Pasta
Peas
Apple
150g Tesco Italian Arrabbata sauce (3 syns)
1.5L water

So thats the plan for today. I would normally have more syns, but i'm trying to make up for the over indulgence of the weekend, so until Thursday i will b going easy on the syns.
