Yo yo dieter needs to stay on track!

Today has shown me why I prefer filling and healthy! Was so hungry by 9am after my cereal breakfast that I had 2 crumpets (5pp) with 1tsp of Lurpak lighter (1pp) and a banana (0pp) for a snack!

Then lunch when different to plan as my friend popped round just before lunch and was late before she left so was so hungry didn't have time to get my rice cooking.... Brown rice takes ages!

So had super speedy New York bagel (6pp) with 2tsp Lurpak lighter (2pp) slice of wafer thin ham (0pp),and most of a bag of Pombear for (2pp).

This lunch was the same total of pp as what I had planned to have with the 2 tandoori chicken breasts brown rice but so much less filling!

This afternoon had a fab time in the garden with the kids. Then we made some gingerbread animal biscuits which were so much fun! Needless to say I had to try one for safety reasons haha. Used small animal cutters so the one I had worked out as 2pp.

Just eaten tea with the kids. Had my microwave meal as planned. Was ok, and feeling very full up. However it was just ok, wouldn't have it again! I much prefer cooking my meals as the low fat ready meals aren't the best in my opinion. But can't really complIn too much for a 49p bargain the other day. Various other ones in the freezer too which will save for when too tired to cook I guess!

So ending the day on total of 33pp.

Day 1
26/26
5/49 weeklies

Back to filling and healthy tomorrow.

Well done on the loss hun! That's the problem at the weekends I find...friends and family pop round or you end up going out during meal time and eating out so it makes it harder to plan.
Hope you're having a good Sunday x

Thank you. You are right, these things just happen so just need to go with it and make the most of the times when I can plan!

My parents are visiting later. No doubt they will come armed with cakes of many varieties for the kids Haha x

Today used a fair amount of my weeklies even though haven't had a majorly 'bad' day.

As I start work at 5am half the week, I always grab a cereal bar out of the vending machine which is already 4 points that I don't have on non work days. Have tried to skip it and work right through till around 10am when I get my breakfast break but I just can't do it! Makes me feel all faint not eating so this is always what I do! When feeling particularly good then I remember to pack a banana in my bag but today was not one of those days!

Rest of day have just been chilling with the kids and counting down the time to bedtime really! I'm so looking forward to them both being at school when I can get a job with normal hours and not be so tired all the time.

Not that I should be so ungrateful as we are going on holiday next week due to my pocket money I get from my job. Seriously excited, can't wait now!

To Greek Islands, can't wait! We haven't been abroad for 4 years, and as my son starts school in September we thought we'd better go this year before we have to stick to school holidays and never afford it ever again! X

So excited! One of the things I'm looking forward to most is not cooking or planning any food. We are going all inclusive, not done it before but thought would be perfect with the kids. And no work!!! X

... Worst breakfast ever! Was a different cook in the canteen at work. No porridge on offer and all the other cereals were kiddy chocolate ones so unimpressed! They do a daily fry up which I never have as don't like it really.

L

Strawberries, raspberries 0
Total Greek yoghurt 0
Golden syrup drizzle 1

Not sure what to do for dinner. My husband has bought gu salted caramel puddings so they are in the fridge and taunting me. Just pointed them and they are 11pp each! So small for 11pp. Really want one but just had fruit and yoghurt instead to try curb the sugar craving.
