ProPoints Not going to eat like a Rabbit

[shellsmithcat]

Hello. I am Michelle. I am not new to Minimins as was previously an Atkins "dieter", which I loved may I add, but as soon as i stopped following the Atkins plan the weight just piled on, it is just too difficult to follow long term. I have been a WW online member for a few months now but have only been dipping in and out of it but as from Thurs last week i have made a vow to stick to it proper.

So WI for Thurs 4th July 11st 11lbs

I am determined I am going to eat proper food but make sensible swaps and educated food choices. I work shifts so find it very hard to stick to a food plan but I am determined not to eat like a rabbit. Yesterday for example i really fancied a pork pie, now usually i would eat just one mini one on its own but wouldnt feel satisfied so would eat another and .... You get what i am saying. So what i did was chop the mini pie (5pp) into 1/8ths and added it to a small salad all mixed up with a wee bit of lighter than light mayo and heyho was full and satisfied. Hopefully i can continue thinking of alternative ways to still have what I love.

What about others? Does anyone else have novel ways of enjoying what they love without missing out? Xx

Ahhhhh - hubby cooked dinner. He doesn't think. Lots of points today gone on sausage and mash - lots of fruit will be taken to work today to snack on. Jumped on scales this morning - lost 5lbs since Thurs so good start, although will not count my chickens yet.

Thanks Everton

Thats nights finished for now - yayy. Took tons of fruit to work and no money so i wouldnt be tempted to raid the snack machine. Someone brought cake in one night too. To curb my chocolate fix i took sachets of WW hot choc for that 3am craving i always get. Have discovered that Calippo mini ice lollies are only 1 PP each so treated myself to a couple of boxes to get through this heatwave we are enjoying. Currently sitting in the garden enjoying a nice fresh beef stir fry, added soy sauce, chinese 5 spice and garlic, its well nice.

Been storing my grapes & berries in a container in the fridge -to keep them a bit longer in this hot weather - also easier to grab a handful when i am feeling like chocolate lol

Well done!! You're so organised taking all that food into work! But it does help to avoid snacking etc.

 

[oasis6918]

Todays pack up. Had cornflakes with pineapple on for breakfast. No veg with my dinner (the curry) but not the end if the world. I am working 4pm - 2am tonight and tomorrow. Hate that shift.

 

[shellsmithcat]

Really really stressful night at work, got rather upset with frustration, this is when i would usually reach for the snack machine but instead i ate my WW rich toffee choc bar - oh my yum and only 2pp. My last shift tonight before rest days and so need rest. X

 

[everton04]
