Say No to junk food and Yes to healthier food!

[sweetierufus]

Just had an inspirational text from sw consultant

The weekend is here hip hip hooray
But don't let bad choices ruin each day
You don't want disappointment when you weigh in next week
Cos you went over your syns total on the Wine, Crisps or Sweets
To protect your journey make a smart plan
And remember lots of free food whenever you can xxx

Read a book yesterday on quitting sugar addiction. More motivated then ever to give up sugary treats. I've known for ages that I have a problem with sugar and can't stop once I start. My mum been diabetic restricted my sugar as a child and always warned me. I wish I listened but just rebeled and ate loads of sugary things biscuits sweets etc. Sadly now she's passed away I can't tell her she was right and I was wrong.

Breakfast
Porridge

A good healthy start to the day:thumbup:

Can't do quotes on my phone.

That was a lovely text from your consultant. Very true!
I'm sure you'll be able to sort out your problems with sugar. The main thing is you've identified it. We all rebel from our mums. Even when we know they are right. I'm sure your mum knows that you realise she was right.

Weighed in earlier. Half pound off. Seems like a lit of effort for half a pound. Still, there's always next week!

I know what you mean about sugary drinks. I love full sugar Pepsi. Unfortunately I can't have pepsi max as the sweetner aspartame gives me migraines.

I love hot chocolate I've not had the Costa one but I bet its lush

Third Day of reducing sugary rubbish. Feeling really good and I've actually surprised myself. Work even had ALDI jelly babies and I didn't have one! I love these there are nicer than the Bassets ones. Despite loving them I didn't fancy them today so reducing sugar has reduced my cravings for sugar. This will be my week. Had a fab catchup and lunch out with Aunt. Hope this week continues to be good!

Breakfast
2 x pear

Dinner
Corned beef and tomato Toastie
Salad

Tea
Prawn Curry
Peppers

Weigh in today. The junkiest thing I've had this week is a mug shot so I've accomplished that much! Hopefully the scales will show the difference!

 

[sweetierufus]

Good luck for WI.

Prawn curry made with asda medium curry powder and a bit of tomato puree. Cooked with peppers. Its was lush but a bit too spicy for a weakling like me.

 

[sweetierufus]

Lunch

Snack

Wow the supermarket is a sugary junk food minefield

Never realised how much was sold especially in the offers sections. Didn't buy any so can't eat it!

Plenty of fruit and veg on offer:thumbup:

 

[bubble77]

I cant even go to supermarket sometimes. When i feel weak willed i know id buy all the offers on the junk! Well done for not giving in to their winks and calling out your name! Your doing good this week sweetie.

The bubble will burst

Feeling better this week about shopping. Using up what`s in the freezer before I do a proper shop again.
Only things I`ll need this week is milk and bread which I`ll get from the corner shop. Less likely to spend a lot. Just in and out for the milk and bread.

Means I`ll have to use frozen veg for a while as we`re on an economy drive!!

 

[pippalata]

Well done for avoiding all of the naughties. I'm excited about WI tomorrow for you! Xx
