Oh to be a consistent Target Member!!

Hi, I'm Janet and as you can see reached my target weight in October 2013. It's been a good journey considering my strange dietary needs and preferences.
I still attend my weekly class (Wednesday mornings) as I can go for FREE and to be sure, if I didn't I would probably have regained some of my lost pounds.

Thinking about my eating pattern for any given week....it seems to be:
After weigh in on Wednesday until Sunday I go a little 'wild' and then have to reign the whole thing in so I'm still in range for my weigh in. Please don't ask if this is stressful...it is!!

Hum.... I know that's not what I'm supposed to be doing!!

This morning I went to class and STS...that's for the 3rd week...10st 5lbs...bang on target; no complaints.

I'M HOPING THAT BY KEEPING A DIARY I MAY IMPROVE MY EATING PATTERNS!!
After I got home from the class we went out for the day....hence the meal deal lunch; also walked about 3 hours.

Breakfast: Options hot choc, fresh fruit chopped and topped with Alpro plain yogurt.
Snack: bag of Sunbites.
Lunch: Sainbury's meal deal....tuna & sweetcorn sandwich, cheese & onion crisps, fruit drink, carrot cake...OK, one item was an extra!
Snack: 2 small bars mint choc 11g each, scone, jam & clotted cream tea.
Supper: bag Sunbites, fresh melon and strawberries. Cup liquorice tea.

Thanks for reading....

I slept so well last night...must have been all the walking... Scales were up 1lb, this doesn't affect my day.

Today I've been at home and did about an hours gardening...

Snacks: cup of Options (2) small dark choc bar (7) sunbites (6) Free From cookie (4)
Supper: minis, fresh watermelon.
Walked in the Country Park for 1 hour.

I've had quite a lax day eating wise again... 21 syns

Maybe try 10 syns tomorrow to balance things out ??

It is the snacks which creep up with me as well

Should add I didn't sit and stuff all that down for the snack...the sunbites were mid morning, choc was afternoon and biscuit was after the long walk! Just could have made better choices.

If that were me I would have eaten the crisps followed by the chocolate with the options drink. I have had to go cold turkey on snacks again as I was out of control !!

Yes snacking can be my problem too...am thinking about that one.

Sleep was broken up last night, snoring husband and then evidently I disturbed him! Not a happy start to Saturday! Scales STS as yesterday so grateful for that!
Weather doesn't look very bright out there today, I don't have any food shopping to do so maybe it will be a chore day at home! My sister in-law's husband is very poorly so we may have to suddenly make plans and go to London...please God not but doesn't look very hopeful at the moment.

Anyway....eating wise...it's Saturday and I feel like I shall now get back on plan 100% now...that means giving some thought about those extras, that mainly creep in when I'm out and about.

Saturday:

Breakfast: Options (2) chopped fresh fruit, Alpro plain yogurt (HeA)
Lunch: Baked Rice dish: tuna, cheese -soya & goats (HeB), rice, lots of chopped mixed veggies saute in frylight, tomatoes, salsa (2)
Snack: Options (2) small bar 70% dark choc (7)
Supper: Ryvita minis (HeB), fresh melon.
Total: 13 syns :happy096:

Food all eaten and exactly as I posted...been a satisfying day, no cravings either! :bighug:

I was the one to shift bedrooms last night due to a whole lot of snoring going on....but at least I slept well
Scales 1lb down this morning....great, getting back on plan always shifts any bloat!!

Sunday:

Breakfast: Options (2) fresh fruit & Alpro plain yogurt (HeA)
Lunch: jacket potato, feta (HeA) 1/2 plate mixed salad, fat free dressing
Snack: Options (2) small bar 70% chocolate (7)
Supper: Ryvita minis (HeB) fresh fruit.

Will update more later....

Yay you're in the right place !

Well done for staying on plan yesterday

Is it options hot choc you are drinking as I thought they all had skimmed milk in ?

Hi Jaffa,
Yes you're right it does have dried milk in, which isn't brilliant for me so that's why I limit myself to 2 cups (not mugs) a day. Also kind of gives me that chocolate fix!!

I got excited thinking you had found a vegan version !

I have one about once a month or so and you have put me in the mood for one now . May adjust my diary.
