Rosie's SW Journey

[rosiepeace]

Thanks hun - think I will try a green/red week so just to give me body a bit of a shock and keep it losing weight. Really need to plan what I'm going to have this week to keep me interested and keep me on plan otherwise I think I will be running the risk of losing the plot completely.

Today I've not had breakfast again!! I really need to stop this - or rather start breakfast so that I have my 3 meals a day.

Lunch was a roast chicken dinner, skipped the roast pots and only had a little stuffing and gravey - prob about 4 syns in total. Had loads of veg and only a little pots.

Tea was a tuna mayo roll (HXB) 1 syn for extra light mayo.
also had another roll 6 syns with scrambled egg
followed by a strawberry mullerlight

so today I've had 11 syns.

I got a toffee mullerlight in the freezer to have later if I decide I want something sweet - have been fancying a magnum - and there are some in the freezer but I'm trying to forget for tonight.

Hello Rosie

Have put my pedometer into my pocket this morning, so I don't loose it and it don't zap back to zero.

Have a look at the recepies and you might get some motivation from them.

Heres to a good week, started my fish plan this week, hope it works, but looking at other ppl's stats, it really does shock the body!

Have a good day hun xx

Ok didn't post what I ate yesterday - lets just say that it was a LOT off plan - after WI where I sts and felt I should have lost I kinda lost the plot and ate all round me as well as getting a cheeseburger and chips!

Anyway line drawn under yesterday - back on plan today!

2 apples - kinda breakfast and snack

Lunch was cheese on toast (HEA & HEB)

Tea was baked fish with roasted peppers, onions and carrots.
Pud was chopped up grapes, vanilla mullerlight and I crumbled and oaty bar (HEB) into it

So far today I've not used any syns so will need to think of something to have a bit later on but can't think what at the moment!

Thanks Nikki - am gonna have a hunt through the reciepes in a mo to see what I can find to eat for this week.

[rosiepeace]

OK I haven't posted for a while on this and I think it's about time I do - really need to start controlling what I'm eating again as it's all starting to slip in a bad way again

Today was
Breakfast - fibre plus bar (HXB)
Lunch - cheese omelette (HXA)
Tea - couldn't be bothered so we ordered out from the chinese - had a chicken chow mein - but it tasted oily and I had some of the baby's chips as well
Also had some malteasers and minstrels - probably looking at about 20 syns for the chocolate alone - chowmein was probably 16 syns - chips were probably in the region of 10 syns

Which means today I've had 46 syns

Am going to be out on Sunday at a 3 course carvery as my aunt and uncle are coming to visit and they want to eat out so are taking the whole family out - all 9 of us!!

80 syns for the week in total so I only have 34 syns left for the week so approx 5 syns a day - I can probably live with that if I'm sensible about the whole week - means I still have some lea way on sunday in the hope to lose weight next week

 

[Eternalflame]

Morning Rosie

Good to hear that you posted. Ive been the same, been away and then work from 7.30am til -8pm each day, and am shattered to get online.

Hope you are well. I had chow mein last night too , but cooked it, i love a good chinese chow mein though and its only 8 syns anyway, so you can save them up for the day and really enjoy that with a drizzle of sweet and sour for 2 syns too.

I gained 10.5lb when I was on holiday!! Its a huge amount to gain, but I am totally "what I eat sticks to me" so did expect about 9lb anyway. So working hard at it now, and tried for a Green day yesterday but worked out to EE, so EE most days this week and a couple of Red days to throw in for the mix.

Hope to chat soon xx

 

[rosiepeace]

Today I've done a green day - wasn't really planned it just kinda happened

Breakfast was porriage (HEB) with 1/2 HEA milk
Lunch was onion omlette with 1/2 HEA cheese
Tea was mustard mash (1 syn) with broccoli, cauliflower and brussel sprouts - with some gravey (3 syns)

Have just had a toffee mullerlight with a fibre plus bar (HEB) broken into it

Been shopping today with my mum as I have a wedding to go to next month. Managed to get some size 14 jeans - my 16's were rather loose, some size 14 tops which will do well for the wedding.
I did get into some size 14 formal trousers but they left me with a rather large bulge above the waist band which meant tops didn't work too well - so will have to try and tone the tum a bit. but all in all am rather chuffed it's been about 4 years since I got into a 14 anything!!

 

[Eternalflame]

Well done on getting into size 14 Rosie, I love green days too. xx

 

[rosiepeace]

Today was EE day

Breakfast was a wholemeal roll (HEB) with cheese (HEA) with some extra light mayo (1 syn)

Lunch was bacon and eggs

Tea was mango-glazed chicken from the SW mag with peas and sweetcorn instead of sugar snapped peas - (4 syns)

Also had some cadbury's animals approx 6 - so that is another 6 syns

so 10 syns for today
4 syns for yesterday
so based on the 34 syns I had left I now have 20 syns left for the week

which still works out at 5 syns a day - so I can still do this and get some weight off for this week

tomorrow I'm gonna give the boys sweet and sour chicken
I'm going to have pasta with passata sauce - might bung some chicken and bacon in it as well

Thank you nikki - I was rather chuffed about it - if mum hadn't been there I probably wouldn't have tried them at all

 

[rosiepeace]

Another EE day here

Breakfast - porriage (HEB) with milk (HEA)

Lunch - two boiled eggs and some ham

Tea was pasta, passata, onions, peas, sweetcorn with teriaki chicken - yummy

Had 3 animal biscuits - 3 syns
also had a handful of chips - oven baked - 4 syns with some mayo 1 syn

so today I've had 8 syns

tomorrow we're having a bbq as my dad's sister and brother in law are coming to visit - so i've got some chicken out the freezer and am going to marinade it in soy sauce, garlic and ginger and will get it cooked - means I can hopefully avoid syns - although it will be sw burgers and sausages from the butcher but they still have some syns - hopeing it will stop me eating quite so many syns tomorrow - i'll be doing a sw colslaw and pot salad
