time to knuckle down.....

Not updated for a few days now... but weighed this morning and I've lost 0.5kg (1.1lb), which i'm really pleased with considering the week i've had with messing up my syns!!!

Today has been good so far:

banana (Hex B)
3 x ryyita

cherries
coconut yoghurt - temptations activia - 2.5 syns

tomato and herb mugshot
cold chicken

strawberries
grapes

drinks: water/coffee/tea (using milk from Hex A allowance)

Tonight's tea will be sausages - tesco light choices 1 syn each. I know I perhaps should've had some superfree with breakfast & lunch, but was running late this morning after late night last night and an unsettled daughter, so nothing was prepared. I got some salad stuff at lunch time, so aiming to be more prepared for tomorrow and rest of week.

Will update signature later on - just sneaked on quickly in work time...

Day 2 of Week 3 getting off to a good start. Tuesdays I have to leave for work earlier than normal to drop my daughter off at nursery so:-

Before work:-

Ryvita x 3 (Hex B)
banana

At work:-

satsuma
muller light orange sprinkled with dark choc - i believe these are free?... but i will double check

Got a lovely salad for lunch with cooked chicken, tomato, cucumber, lettuce, spring onion, beetroot, pickled onions, peppers and fat free dressing.

An i've got some strawberries, grapes and cherries to snack on during work and a coconut yoghurt too (2.5 syns)

Tonight's tea will be beef stir fry.

OH offered to make tea last night so we had Tesco light sausages, SW chips and beans. Sausages were 1 syn each and I had 3. It was yummy and even nicer that he made it, even though it's a basic meal and doesn't require a lot of "cooking"! Ha ha! He doesn't do much cooking, but I think he can do more than he thinks, when he puts his mind to it... LOL!

Hoping after yesterday, this is a start of a good week.

well, here I am again.

40 weeks to my son's wedding and i need to lose the 3 stone that i have regained!

We have a beautliful new grandaughter - well done rattymum!

We had a lovely cruise holiday last October but, oh my, the food does not fit well with syn counting.

I will start diary again from tomorrow as i have my first weigh in, having already been back on the wagon for the past week.

not good day food wise. looking forward to brunch with my future daughter in law tomorrow, she tells me she is doing SW quiche and fresh fruit salad and no doubt there will be lots of wedding talk as she is most excited to show me what she has planned for table centres.

Just hope I manage to sleep tonight, it was 3.30am that i finally went back to bed this morning after being unable to sleep.
