So, here I am, the typical yo-yo dieter. Never kept any weight off, and never kept a diary. Let's see if this time can be different!
Started Monday, which went OK....
B/fast - 2 egg omelette with cheese from HE
Lunch - Pasta salad, made the night before - fried onion & garlic in Fry Light, added cherry toms, a little stock, seasoning, and lots of fresh oregano then mixed with cooked pasta.
Dinner - huge veggie stir fry with noodles.
Syns - a hot chocolate from the machine at work....not sure how many that is???
Tuesday, started well....
Breakfast - 2 scrambled eggs with mushrooms
Lunch - lots of pasta that i made the night before and heaated in microwave (sauce made of fresh veg, with tinned chopped toms, splash of white wine, stock, seasoning, and oregano)
Afternoon tea - small slice of homemade chocolate cake that someone from work bought in, mmmm..... Guess about 10 syns????
And then it all went wrong.... :cry:
Ended up working really late, someone ordered in takeway pizza and garlic bread, and sadly i was very weak willed..... And ate a HUGE amount. Followed by a couple of hot chocs. I don't know why I do this!!! Whenever I stop being 'good' I'm terrible! Grr...
Today
Due to late night working (home after midnight yest) didn't have time to prepare lunch. And no time for reakfast as running late for work so grabbed a bagel (with butter!) at work.
At this stage, (diet failure) I usually give up / go into binge mode again. But somehow I managed to go the whole day without buying any more food - i know its very bad to skip lunch, but I was pretty busy.
Anyhow, got home about 9ish and - must be a first - instead of pigging out on crisps and chocolates and grabbing chips on my way home, actually managed to control my hunger and cook a healthy meal! Yay!!! Tried the SW chilli recipe, made with Quorn, and had rice with it. Was so YUMMY!
Tho I am slightly concerned that my portion was way too big. I think I'll not worry too about how much I eat for now, just what. And if I don't lose anything, maybe cut back.
I decided to start this diary yest, and think that the fact I knew I was gonna write it today helped me stay on track (excluding breakfast). I''m doing this at home rather than attending a class, for several reasons. I know that the groups will be supportive and friendly and everything, but I'm quite shy and very secretive about my weightloss - basically because I don't want ppl to know if I fail, which is what usually happens sadly. But also, I study as well as work so often find myself working long hours - not gd for my eating habits or attending groups. So if anyone has any advice, I'd be very grateful!
