need some reassurance on today's menu

Hey everyone,

I usually do EE, but as I am in serious need of a supermarket shop and had to forage in the cupboards for today's food I did a green day. It feels like I've been a bit naughty as I've had no SF foods, and have eaten loads. Calorie wise surely this is too much? I know we're not meant to worry about cals, but you can't beat the math. Problem is, I quite enjoyed what I had today, and technically I didn't cheat at all and have been 100%. If I ate like this everyday would I lose weight???

Anyway, here's what I had -

Breakfast - 35g All Bran (HexB) with ML yoghurt and banana
Lunch - same as breakfast (HexB 2)
Dinner - 3 potato waffles (2.5 syns each, 7.5 syns for 3), Batchelors Macaroni Cheese P&S made up with HexA milk (1.5 syns - dinner total = 9 syns)
Snack - Soreen mini banana loaf with a cup of tea (5 syns), Mug Shot - free

Total syns for the day = 14

All feels a bit naughty compared to EE and 1/3 SF!!

Thanks for your help :)

Sorry for putting this in the wrong place - any thoughts anyone? :)
 
Hey :)

Technically, the diary is fine. It is within the plan. But you really are missing veg and fruit. If you take the plan word for word then technically you should lose weight. But you will find it quicker if you incorporate some fruit and veggies too.
I do all green and occasionally have similar days and lose, but low calorie foods like veg do speed things up a bit :)
