Day 3. EE

I'm going to my sisters for dinner tonight, hopefully it'll be sw friendly. It normally is as she has celiac so eats mostly non processed foods.

Breakfast

Milk (1/2a)
2 x toast & lf spread (1b & 7)
Beans
Cheese (1/2a)
Grapes & pear

Lunch

Tomato soup
Greek yoghurt topped with raspberries & blueberries

Dinner

A small bowl of chilli & rice before I left to go to my sisters as was starving (5 for bit of cheese)
At my sisters I had pork loin in an apple sauce, skewered vegetables, a couple if new potatoes & salad leaves. Pretty sw friendly although I'm sure oil & butter was used so if I say 10 syns.

Syns 22. 31/70

No exercise, I've been pretty rubbish this week as hardly done anything. Will try & make time tomorrow for a workout!

Sorry for delayed response - red split lentils go in the soup. You can just throw them in, no need to soak or anything. They take about 10 mins to cook. They're probably one if the easiest lentils to cook with. If you like them and are on netmums there is a red lentil bolognaise recipe that's pretty good.
Keep going - you're doing well. I got another 3lbs off this week. I'm really pleased. We took visiting relatives to Whitby for the day in the sunshine at the weekend. When they had fish and chips, I had poached fish and a jacket potato, when they had ice teams I had a diet coke and when they went to a chocolate shop I ate a slimming world hifi bar as my B choice. I was glad to get home though cos the will power was getting harder and harder! Luckily I had left dinner in the slow cooker and had some counted in some syns for wine!

Oh - and I managed 5k on my run this morning without stopping. I've never managed that before so am really chuffed!

Have a good week

Thanks for that. I've always wanted to try cooking lentils. I love a dansak curry & that's made with lentils isn't it?
Well done u, another 3lbs if fab & also the 5k run!
I'm trying to plan ahead this weekends food, so I don't fall off the wagon...we don't have any plans to go out for food but have my brother & nephew staying over sat night so there will probably be some alcohol involved.

I'm struggling today, really fancy a drink tonight but have my brother staying tomorrow so want to have a drink then too! Lol if I had two glasses of wine tonight & tomorrow that would be roughly 30 syns & would pretty much leave me no syns for anything else. I may try & plan my weekend food wit no syns to allow for the wine!!
Also the thought of a ham, cheese & coleslaw roll has been calling my name all day, I've been cleaning like a mad woman so I don't cave! Roll on tea time.
