ProPoints My Veggie WW Journey!

[Kitty_Sequin]

I've really enjoyed reading other people's food diaries so I thought i'd share mine - feel free to pop in with hints and tips!

I am a WW newbie - 3 days in and so far so good. It doesn't feel like a diet as i'm still eating mostly what I used to, my problem is portion control - i.e. I have none . As a previous devotee to Slimming World my portions were completely out of control, sure I lost weight but when I slipped back into my normal eating habits I ate huge amounts of food - hence why I am back where I started....and then some.

Anyway, enough waffling - here is my diary so far:
Monday
B - 30g Asda Vitality cereal plus SS milk (5)

L - 400g tin Tomato Soup (6)
2 slices bread (4)
Mint 2 finger kit kat (3)

D - Uncle Bens Golden Vegetable Rice (10)
2 x Quorn Sausage (4)
Carrots (0)

32/33 dailies
0/49 weeklies

Hi Kitty. Here to subscribe. I was a veggie (not vegan) for 13 years and I found that back in the day all veggie meals were smothered in cheese, which makes it hard to diet. I will therefore be interested to see what you eat.

Strangely enough I have Quorn sausages, homemade "chips" and beans in mind for tonight's tea. I also made a load of roast veg this week and had it for lunch with couscous and 30g feta. Very tasty.

Anyway, good luck!

Hi Maria!
I have eaten a lot of Quorn sausages so far this week, for some reason lol. I do like other Quorn items though like fillets, mince, burgers etc.

Your cous cous, roasted veg and feta sounds delish! Think I might have to try that for my lunch at work one day.

Really great to have that treat night and still not used all my weeklies which I was surprised about. Felt in control which felt great!

 

[Maria2206]

Food sounded good yesterday. I wouldn't worry too much about the points in the coleslaw - you're not getting much in the way of calories/points from much else!

I'm thinking of making a nice tub of wholemeal pasta in garlic, tomato and chilli sauce for work this week's lunches. I haven't made that in ages and I do like a nice bit of pasta.
