Evilpenguin's food diary

Oh god thats early :(! So glad Argos doesnt open that early lol. Hopefully you'll be ready for full time but if not its best not to push yourself. 2 weeks isn't long to get back into it tho :S

You will be ok :) if you start to feel anxious just step aside to somewhere quiet (hard at work I know, the loo is the quietest place at mine!) and take deep breaths :)

Wages are the best! You should treat yourself to something nice with your wage :) xxx
 
Yeh that's the plan just deciding what to get :) really don't need any more DVDs, clothes, shoes, makeup or booze which are all my usual treats!

Might be saddo and get an icecream maker or maybe a kettlebell!! Haha I must be getting old :-( x
 
Nothing wrong with being a saddo lol :D

My first wage is already spent, owe money to my bf, need road tax, getting an outfit for a wedding and paying BT :( if I have any leftover after bills I might manage to meet up with my friend! Got about 4 different nights out to arrange but can't afford any of them! :(

Was thinking last night that I might have been better to stay on the dole lol. Hard to see the point in working your ass off just to give all your money to someone else!
 
EE today

Breakfast: coffees (HEA)
Lunch: apple, weetabix bar (4 syns)
Dinner: steak mushroom thing (7 syns)
Snacks: blt from m&s (heb plus 5 syns mayo)
Total syns: 16

Had an early start so didnt manage breakfast before I left and didnt get a break today so havent eaten at all! Forgot to take meat out to defrost so dinner will be decided at the shops after I pick up my bf from his work. Argh!!
 
Not going to mess around anymore. Been so upset with myself recently, need to get back on plan. Dunno if I posted about my weigh in but I gained 1lb. Could've been a lot worse so actually pretty lucky to have only put on a pound. Had a chippy for dinner on Saturday and my stomach hurt so much I thought I had something wrong with me! Plus we are on a budget and it feels wrong to be spending so much on rubbish food :(

I just need to get my head around these shifts. People must think I am so lazy, I do a maximum of 5 hours at work and afterwards I just want to collapse in bed. Its honestly the most active I've been for years, been doing a desk job since I was 18 ffs!! I cant help it if 3 hours on my feet, lifting heavy boxes (sometimes its actual weights I'm lifting!!) and running around daft is taking it out of me!! So I sort of used that as an excuse for eating junk, but I know I'd feel so much better if I ate healthily :)

I was actually pretty good when I had early shifts with breaks, I took fruit & cereal bars with me to eat. It just went downhill when I got home lol. And it was my mum's birthday at the weekend so she had Thorntons lying around! :(

So going to hunt through the freezer tonight and plan out meals! I also have a giant pineapple going to waste so need to chop that up & munch it!

Feel like a bloody broken record :( but totally getting back on plan before I either die from eating too much fat or put this 3 stone (almost) loss back on!!
 
EE today!!!

Dinner: pork fried rice with loads of veg
Snacks: mango, coffee (rest of HEA) ice cream sundae pot (8 syns) cheese & ham toastie (HEB plus 2 syns)
Total syns: 14

I think I have found my mojo again! Just want to do this so badly! Learning to ignore the morbidly obese person in my head who taunts me with junk food cravings! That stuff will kill me!

Need to keep this positive mental attitude so don't mind me if I post lots of entries here today :D
 
Hope you have found your mojo! Mines a bit missing at the moment but hopefully find it again when I get settled in again at work and stop being so damn sore.

Work is tiring when it's on your feet all day and moving stuff around I'm absolutely knackered from mine at the moment but I will adjust soon. Short shifts do manage to take up a massive chunk of your day when you factor in travelling there and back. I try to bring something with me to eat on way home if it's at an awkward time that means missing lunch. X
 
I think its back yeah :) I feel good about SW again. Going to Tesco after work to pick up healthy goodies :)

You will find yours again once you get back into a routine. How are you finding work? Hope theyre not pushing you to do too much too soon!

I was getting sandwiches from m&s after work because I was so hungry so I need to take your advice and take something with me definitely. Or just pretend m&s doesnt exist and go straight to my car lol!! Xx
 
Woo! Stuck to it yesterday and even managed an ice cream sundae in my syns!

Made those 6 syn muffins this morning, not got anything on a real muffin but not bad for the syns. Had 2 already tho! One was tiny so only counting 4 syns.

EE today!

Breakfast: coffee (3 syns milk)
Lunch: 2 muffins (10 syns)
