Ok, so this is my second week on SW & I think it's a great idea to post your food diary on here and receive feedback from other SWers. I lost 1lb last week, which I am MEGA proud of! Anyway, here is my food diary for today:

Breakfast
2 small slices wholemeal bread (HEX B) with light butter (1.5 syns) and an orange.

Lunch
Jacket potato with tuna & light mayo (2 syns) & sweet corn. Salad on the side.

Dinner
Spaghetti with pieces of Mattessons Turkey rashers, mushrooms & a little grated light cheddar cheese (HEX A) & a salad on the side.

Snacks
Cherry Muller Light
3 Jaffa Cakes (7.5 syns)

Total Syns: 11
 
Hi fellow slimming worlder! Congrats on your weight loss!

I think slimming world is the best diet I've been on so far and I've tried a lot. I often find I lose more weight when I try to do a "high protein/ low carb" version of the diet. I avoid bread and cereal like the plague because I could easily live off the stuff. I always lose more weight the weeks I eat hardly any carbs! Do you have any recipes you've created yourself that are a favourite?
 
Hi Alex! I do have a small amount of carbs in my meals purely because I enjoy eating the meat & veg more. I'm not sure if I have created any recipes, I just throw things together. I suppose you'll find out what I eat every day now that I have this diary!

Ok so here's what I had today:

Breakfast
2 small slices wholemeal bread (HEX B) with light butter (1.5 syns) and a banana.

Lunch
Pasta salad with prawns
Sauce: 1 tablespoon light mayo (2 syns), 1 tablespoon Tesco ketchup (1 syn), lemon juice & mixed herbs.

Dinner
Spaghetti with pieces of Mattessons Turkey rashers, mushrooms & a little grated light cheddar cheese (HEX A) & a salad on the side.

You will probably have noticed I had the same dinner as last night. I work 12 hour shifts, 3 days on 3 days off so I often make two lots of something as it's easier for me.

Snacks
Toffee Muller Light
3 Jaffa Cakes (7.5 syns)

Total Syns: 12
 
Here is yesterday's diary:

Breakfast
2 small slices wholemeal bread (HEX B) with light butter (1.5 syns) and a banana.

Lunch
Pasta with Mattessons reduced fat smoked sausage (3.5 syns) and cheese sauce made from 6 extra light laughing cow triangles (HEX A) with peppers, mushrooms & sweet corn.

Dinner
3 Quorn Sausages (3 syns) with potatoes, peas & carrots.

Snacks
Cranberry & Raspberry Muller Light
2 Jaffa Cakes (5 syns)

Total Syns: 13

This was the first time I've tried Quorn Sausages & I will say that I wouldn't waste the syns again, they weren't very nice.
Today I'm having a day off. For the life of me, I couldn't make my meals for today as I was shattered! I'm still going to record what I eat, I probably won't know the syn values but I'm going to try to stick to healthy foods from the canteen at work. This will be my only day off since I started two weeks ago so I don't feel too bad about it.

WI is tomorrow and I just have this funny feeling that I haven't lost this week. Has anyone ever felt like this before? I've just woke up and the gym has opened so I'm going to go down there in half an hour once I'm ready. Try to push for a loss.
Anyway here is yesterday's diary:

WI was today and I'm sad to say I didn't lose this week. At least I didn't gain, so I suppose that's a good point. I had a day off from SW today (as I'm sure many of you did). We had a BIG family dinner with too many carbs/calories/syns to count. I'm hoping this won't affect my WI for next week. So there's no food diary for today. I couldn't possibly tell you what I ate as everything was home cooked (not by me). Let's draw a line under today and move on to next week.
Happy Easter everyone!
 
I totally forgot to do yesterday's diary!
Anyway I stuck to SW 100% but I really want to tell you about my dinner!! We had some Greek kebabs.
Wholemeal pitta (HEX B) with grilled chicken breast, lettuce, tomato, red onion & sauce.
Sauce made from fat free Greek yogurt, garlic, chopped cucumber, lemon juice & paprika.
Side salad: rocket, peppers, olives & feta cheese (HEX A.
SW chips.

This was one of the best SYN FREE dinners I've ever had! It's definitely worth trying. We usually have friends round on a Saturday night and since I started SW I've been making them meals to suit me and they've loved it all!
 
I did not have an appetite at all yesterday. It was a bit strange for me to be honest!
