Nikki's food diary - mainly red / green

[n3blo]

Hi and welcome to my diary. I have been doing slimming world on and off for 5 years and managed to maintain my weight pretty well. The past 2 months have been very hectic for our family and it has resulted in meals going out the window and living off chocolate, crisps and other rubbish. This has resulted in me putting on a stone!!

Any way, we are off to the states in 3/4 weeks time as our little boy is very poorly and going out there for treatment. However we will be out the for 10 weeks and feel I need to get a grip on my eating habits for the next few before we go. A food diary will allow me to really track what I am eating.

Thanks for looking and any advice will be greatly received. It has been a long time since attending a group.

Today hasn't quite gone to plan as we went to a friends house for lunch. I tried to be good but I crumbled :-S

Breakfast:
Grapes
Kiwi
Muller light greek yoghurt
Tea

Lunch:
A selection of meats
A small piece of cheese, I didn't weigh but i would say 30g - Hex A
A small amount of tear n share bread - I should have avoided this
Carrots, cucumber and dip
Grapes

We then had lemon tart, I couldn't resist and had a small slice, but then had vanilla cream on top - oops!!!

Dinner:
I've not eaten anything tonight as feeling full from lunch, although I have pork that has been in the slow cooker all day so might have some of this later on.

Onward and upwards for tomorrow - its just one day.
