Claires slimming world journey

[clairem87]

Hi all! I joined sw today after losing 4 stone in a combination of vlcd and healthy eating, but have regained 2 of those! Ive started sw at 17st 12.5lb :-( and my ultimate goal is 10st 7lbs so got 7st 5.5lbs to lose! Half a stone at a time lets do this!!

I really enjoyed the group, and the leader was lovely. Can't wait for my first weigh in!

Food has been

Bfast : various free tasters at group
Lunch : brown rice with onions, roasted cherry tomatoes and red peppers, garlic and 1 tsp olive oil (hex b) 1 tbsp rinsed sun dried tomatoes (4 syns)
Dinner : smash base pizza with passata, garlic, herbs, 45g mozzarella (hex a), rocket salad leaves and peppers. Sweet potato chips made with fry light.
Snacks : 2 x 2 finger kit kats (11 syns)

Total 15 syns

Healthiest and most filling day of food in a long time!

Today's food

Breakfast : muller light vanilla and choc sprinkles

Lunch: I've made a quiche type thing with caramelised red onions (2 syns) roasted peppers and sweet potato, pasta and beaten eggs with sage, deeelish!

Dinner : tomato and pepper pasta with brown breadcrumb (hex b) and 45g mozzarella topping (hex a)

Had 2 kit kat 2 finger bars so syns for today isss....11

I really love cooking and this plan seems great for using that skill, I found weight watchers quite limiting cos you had to omit things to save points and it always felt like 'diet food' whereas sw rules allow for really nice meals feeling good! Walked about 5k as well so all in all a good day so far!
