Short's food diary

[Short/Sweet]

This time I will do it right!

So I started officially yesterday, went to group and struggled a little with the first day as I didnt quite have the right food in the house but this is what I had.

Green Day
Breakfast:
28g Crispy Minis (HExB) + dash of milk (HExA)
Tea with sweetener + dash of milk (HExA)

Lunch:
Bowl of chopped up apple and grapes with muller light vanilla on top. (yum!)
Ryvita (HExB) with laughing cow triangle (HExA)

Kit Kat to tide me over at work (5.5 syns)

Dinner:
Jaket potato with Laughing cow trianlges (HExA) and baked beans
Side salad of lettuce, ham (HExB) and sweetcorn

Snack:
Alpen Light Choc and Fudge (3 syns)

Total syns = 8.5 syns


I think I did okay this time around (second time on SW) im going to make sure I use all my syns, Last time it was a struggle to use them as i had the mentality that they were syns so bad for you and that you shouldnt eat them.

So today was my day off (supposedly) I was hoping to have a really nice lunch, maybe try something from the book or from here, followed by another recipe for dinner. After an hour at the beach I got called in to work plans out the window as I had like 20mins to get into work..
So heres what I had instead

shallots
mushrooms

hi, i would say you need to be having lots more super free foods. for example...
with breakfast, a quick piece of fruit for on the go, apple bannana?
lunch, maybe some carrot sticks or a fruit salad
dinner, side salad, or some veggies (mangetout nice with pasta, cherry tomatoes)

Dont be afraid of eating too much, and variety makes a big difference so differ your A and B choices.
I find it good to have plenty of fruit in for those rushed mornings, bags of clementines are great to have.

Why not try a stirfry, throw in lots of veg and can be used again next day.

Good Luck! x

Day 4

So yesterday i had a day off and this meant me and the OH went exploring
So i think the extra exercise makes up for the shocking food I ate!

B:
Tea + sweetener
bowl of apples, grapes and muller light yoghurt

Lunch:
J D Weatherspoons!
5oz Gammon steak with eggs, chips and beans
(I cut all the fat off the gammon as tbh i wouldnt of eaten it anyway!)
Tea + 1 sugar! (they didnt have sweetener )
