Lunch - homemade pasta made with passata, lean bacon and garlic. Apple.

Snack - 1 alpen light (HEXB)

Hello all!

Hope everyone is having a lovely SW day! I did something so silly this morning and weighed myself before my weigh in on Tuesday... the scales showed I had put on a pound?! Not happy as have been sticking to the plan religiously... but I know weight fluctuates etc... SO I am trying not to dwell and will just focus on WI on Tuesday.

So here is the planned food for today:

Breakfast - 35g fruit and fibre (HEXB) Skimmed milk (HEXA) 1 banana

Snack - Strawberries, grapes

Lunch - Jacket potato, chicken breast, 2 tbsp extra light mayo (1 syn), sweetcorn

Dinner - Going to Mummy's tonight so will have something quick like pasta and sauce (Will use milk from HEXA)

Total syns - 1 syn (I will probably fit in a treat size choccie somewhere to bump that up! )

Let me know your thought's all!! xxx

Feel like I am writing this diary to myself... but I am going to keep on at it! Had an extremely moody day today... and usually when I have one of those I reach for masses of chocolate... BUT I have been a good girl! It's funny but I don't even really feel the need to cheat on SW... so far! hehe.

so here is today:

Breakfast - 0% greek yogurt, banana, 2 tsp honey (1 syn)

snack - 2 alpen light bars (HEXB)

Lunch - Jacket potato, 1 dairylea light triange (HEXA) beans, 2 slices ham

snack - strawberries and grapes, 2 x tea made with milk from HEXA

Dinner will be - Batchelors chinese flavour rice, and stir fried veg, made with honey (1.5 syns) and soy sauce

Snack - Treat size twirl (6 syns) Muller light

Total syns - 8.5

If anyone is reading this..... Your thoughts would be nice... please... hehe

Thank you for replying honey and thank you for the tip! I totally agree wih you! I am going to start taking salad to work to have with my lunch and buy more fruit at my weekly shop so I dont run out! Xx

Hi everyone

I haven't checked in for a couple of days as had a busy weekend.. I have been very good, apart from a little glitch on Saturday night, I had 2 glasses of White wine and 3 vodka and diet Coke's... Eeek! BUT they were the only syns I had all day, so trying not to worry too much!

WI in tomorrow.. Fingers crossed for at least a pound loss!

Today's food:

Breakfast - muller light, banana
Snack - 2x alpen light (hexb)
Lunch - OH wanted to go to Harvester as we have day off, so I had salad bar, lettuce, sweetcorn, carrot, spoonful of coleslaw and a ladle of low fat dressing then chicken breast grilled no skin, a jacket potato and a small pot of 30cal gravy so I am going to count 5 syns for that, hopefully that should be about right
Snack - satsuma
Dinner - tomato and herb pasta n sauce, with extra chopped up courgette
So that will be 5 syns for today

I could really use some tips for some quick low syn dinners if anyone has any ideas? I am not usually in from working during the week until around 9ish, so quick is good! ;-) x

I am more of a fruit person too, but I am definitely going to get more veg and salad in from now... You have done really, really well hun! I hope I can do as well

There is no way my OH will let me get a slow cooker, he already won't let me get a microwave because we have no where to put it ( small kitchen) lol

Oh I so wish we had a microwave!! It would be so handy to defrost meat and stuff, but our kitchen is really small and we have no room for it :-(
That's great to see results like that hun! It inspires newbies like moi!
