Everyday's a SW day :) x

not a lot to report at this end today folks...spend an absolute fortune on shopping today but got lots of things like different meats, cans and bottles of juice etc that will do throughout the month so hopefully it balances out over the next few weeks cos we won't need to pick those things up for a while....or that's the plan anyway hehe

my OH was cracking up cos i had him in Aldi, homebargains, asda and sainsbury's...cos i go wherever the things are on offer and refuse to pay more for something if i know it's cheaper elsewhere lol.
so the freezer's full and got a few dinners that he can have when i'm on a green day (we tend to only eat the same if i'm doing EE so it means i make 2 or 3 seperate dinners seeing as my little one won't eat what i have!)

anyway...

DAY - GREEN

Breakfast:
wee drop rice pudding with some chopped banana and frozen raspberries/blueberries
bowl of fruit salad with yog

Lunch:
cheese and pickle salad sandwich - wm bread spread with smooth pickle, HEa cheese, lettuce, tomato and spring onion

Dinner:
pasta with some quorn chicken, onions, mushrooms, peppers, sweetcorn and kidney beans with just over 1/2 HEa allowance of philly light to make it nice and creamy.
really enjoyed this - it was last minute and thrown together and a pretty decent choice considering i was starving when we got back and wanted everything and anything...QUICK! lol

left over fruit with yog & scan bran cake

HEb's:
wm bread
1/2 scan bran cake and a hifi light bar

HEa's
30g cheddar
some philly light and a splash of milk in the rice pudding

Syns:
pickle - 0.5
freddo - 5
space raiders - 3
sainsbo's popcorn - 2.5

11 for the day

feel i've had a pretty good wee day today....the rice, pasta and handful of quorn were pretty much the only free foods i ate (corn and kidney beans too?) and the rest of the things i've eaten have either been superfree or HE's (and syns but you get what i mean lol)
i didn't have huge amounts but looking at that menu, i'd say it was a pretty decent day in terms of sw food...?

WI day tomorrow for me. i'm really hoping for a good loss after the gain last week and of course seeing as i didn't give in and eat the rubbish i wanted on friday.
i know i've been on plan this week but it's had it's challenges so i'm hoping, even though i try not to expect too much, for a good one tomorrow.

fingers crossed peeps eh! x

Well done!!! Congrats, you must be proper happy :)

yep, i am :D
didn't do anything any differently to the week before so i guess it's as unjustified as last week's gain....but i recognise the pattern and i'm glad it was last week's loss plus more!

do kinda wish tho, that i could miss the week i gain and swap it for 2 weeks in a row of a loss instead of being miffed about a gain then getting a great loss.

aww well, not to worry...i'm happy about the numbers now anyway :D x
 
so...today's food was pretty minimal through the day-not intentional but i was busy with one thing or another and before i knew it, it was passed lunch time but too near to WI time to have anything a half decent size....was so hungry before WI and glad i'd grabbed and alpen light bar for straight after then home to get dinner.

DAY -EE

Breafast:
rice pudding with chopped banana, blueberries, frozen raspberries and a dollop of yog

"lunch":
fruit salad, a boiled egg and 2 bacon medallions

Dinner:
chicken breast, sw roast potatoes, carrots, sprouts and sweetcorn

HEb: 1/2 lemon scan bran cake and an alpen light
HEa: splash of milk with the rice pudding and 2 babybel lights

Syns:
popcorn- 2.5
space raiders - 3
aero biscuit-5

10.5 for the day

Ooh what was lemon scan bran cake like? X

it was ok amy...i think i over cooked mine cos i forget it harden's up a bit as it's cooling and i'd checked it and decided to put it in for longer so next time, i'll remember that.
i don't top mine with anything, just slice it into 0.5 syn slices so i can have either 5 for 1/2 a HEb or syn a slice if i'm hungry but think i'm gonna get some quark to try.
i used an activia 0% lemon and lime yog and 2 capfuls of lemon flavouring

think i might try a sachet of options in it one time too as i do make them all the time x

i just did 50g of cous cous, 100ml of boiling water, cover and leave for 5 mins or so until the water's absorbed. fluffed it up with a fork then stirred in a tsp of sweetener and some vanilla essence.
i wouldn't have it own its own but the 50g made loads so this morning i had some of it mixed through fruit and yog. couldn't really taste it but it bulked up the fruit salad a bit and lasted me longer than i thought.
i have the other half to do the same tomorrow before i go to work :) x

The cous cous sounds really easy, you're right it'll be a change I think I have some in from when I tried it ages ago (I tried it savoury though) so gonna hunt that out today. I could put the boiling water on when I get up n it should be ready by the time I've done my hair and stuff for work. I like easy breakfasts! Can't be bothered fading around on a morning that's why I never have cooked breakfasts lol x
 
its easy but i don't really have the time when i'm working so the other day i made 50g up then split it and then i was preparing some fruit the night before so that i could just mix it altogether before i left for work in the morning.
recently i've been having 2 smaller breakfasts (eg the cous cous when i get up then a small magic porridge with 1/2 HE oats once i'm in work) and it's been working quite well.
seem to be eating every hour or 2 right enough lol but it's all on plan and they say little but often is good :) x
