Food diary for today:

Breakfast: 2 x Weetabix (hexb) with milk from allowance, topped with sliced banana.

Lunch: Chicken mugshot. Fruit salad of apple, pineapple and strawberry. Mullerlight yogurt.

Snack: Slice of syn free roulade (all gone now, finished off by my OH who has decided he likes it) and a cup of coffee

Dinner: This is where it all went wrong ..... Was craving a big fry up with PROPER sausages and white pudding, so ended up having 2 slices wholemeal bread (2 syns each), 1 sausage ( ??? syns) , 4 small pieces white pudding ( ???? syns) , lean bacon , SW fried egg and beans. Don't think I even WANT to know how many syns are in that meal really enjoyed it though so I don't regret it

Aahhh! Was absolutely dreading weigh in this week, as I hadn't really been too good this week, but somehow have managed to lose 3lbs! I'm delighted, as for the past number of weeks I had slowed down to 1lb a week. Such a surprise! A great one at that

Here's what I ate today:

Breakfast: 2 x Alpen Light bars (hexb), a Mullerlight, banana and a cup of coffee

Lunch: Leftover pasta bake, an apple, strawberries and some melon.

Dinner: Chinese takeaway from the Slimming World menu, yum yum yum, I had chicken with green pepper in black bean sauce (2 syns), and boiled rice.

Just having my second (small ish) glass of First Cape wine (12 syns for the bottle) - I'm guessing around 4.5 syns ??

And of course I will have my Curly Wurly later for 6 syns

Total syns for today: approx12.5

Just read your diary cover to cover! Love it! Well done on your 3lb this week. I was getting frustrated with your 1lb beacuse you seem to be sticking to plan really well! So when I read you lost 3lb this week I was so happy!

What is all this I hear about SW Chinese Menu and Restaurant that has a SW menu ...where do you live this is fantastic! The takeaway demon has well and truly been overcome

Keep up the good work ...

Hi How are you? I really thought there was nobody reading this diary! Was shocked to see new posts on it not from me So you're back on Slimming World, oh it's great isn't it! I just love it. I've never done any green or red days since I started, I only ever do Extra Easy and it's brilliant. I honestly don't know how it works but it does! I get loads of meal ideas from here, have a look in the Recipes section and the other food diaries, lots of inspiration there You could also look on the slimmingworld website for detailed information on Extra Easy.

Best of luck with your weight loss journey x

Hiya! Thanks for your post Glad to see that someone is reading this! Thought I was talking to myself for a while

How are you getting on with Slimming World? Do you do Extra Easy? I have to say I love it, I never expected to be able to lose weight and eat so much! It's like heaven

I know, I'm so lucky we have about 6 restaurants in town that have Slimming World menus, which have been approved by our SW Consultant. It's great to still be able to have my takeaway and glass or two of wine at the weekends Do you have a diary on here?

Your diary is going well, it does help to stay on track doesnt it?

Didn't post a diary yesterday as had a bit of an "off" day ... well wasn't too bad really but lunch let me down as I went to meet a friend in a restaurant that doesn't have SW menu!! Here's everything I ate yesterday anyway!

Breakfast: "Magic" Porridge, my new fav breakfast !!!

Lunch: From a café - small bowl of veg soup; a sandwich on granary bread with ham, cheese, onion and mayo and .... some chips !!! Shock Horror !!!

Dinner: My leftover Chinese takeaway! Bowl of melon and strawberries.

Then I had a really bad headache and craved chocolate! So I had a Curly Wurly (6 syns) AND a purple snack (5.5 syns)

So loads of syns yesterday!!! But doing well so far today!! Will post later

Gonna make up some magic porridge for breakfast in the morning, will go shopping tomorrow too and stock up! Gonna have a look at the recipes here and try something new, didn't get a chance to plan my meals this week so it was inevitable that I'd run out of food midweek!

 

[teddysgoldengirl]

Just read my post from yesterday, and didn't do two of the things that I set out to do! Didn't make magic porridge, and didn't go shopping Well I went fruit shopping but not other food shopping!

Just had an idea for dinner tonight, dunno what it'll be like but here goes:

Potato wedges with Schwarz Season All, fried bacon and onion, topped with my healthy a of grated cheese? Ohh my mouth is watering at the thought of it! Hope it tastes nice

You should start a food diary, other users can comment on it and give you some guidance if you're unsure!

Didn't post up my diary yesterday as was busy yesterday evening, I'm a primary school teacher and starting back at work on Tuesday so I've been busy getting organised for that! Here's what I had yesterday:

Breakfast: 2 slices wholemeal toast (hexb) sprayed with butter frylight, and a cup of tea.

Lunch: was in school at lunchtime and didn't know how long I'd be there for, so just brought in a fruit salad with melon, apple, kiwi and strawberries. Also had a diet coke.

Snack: Packet of Velvet Crunch ... 4.5 syns??

Dinner: Ohh this was so nice ... wedges sprinkled with Schwarz season all, mixed with bacon and onion and topped with grated cheese (hexa) mmmmmmmm yummy yummy. After dinner I had 2 mandarins and a peach.

Snack: Purple Snack (5.5 syns) and a cup of tea.

Total Syns for today: 9.5


Today will be another busy sort of day, I'm going in to school in a while to do a few more things, will be bringing in a fruit salad with me again, and then I'm going clothes shopping! So excited as I haven't bought any clothes since I started on Slimming World, I'm wondering if I'll squeeze into a size 12 yet, or maybe that's just wishful thinking! People have just started to notice my weightloss now, I was at work yesterday and the cleaner did a double take and asked me had I lost weight talk about a confidence boost! Here's hoping I get some nice clothes today, will report back later

Busy again yesterday !! Didn't have a chance to post, was running around all day and then had a nice evening out. Here's what I had!

Breakfast: I made up the magic porridge with a coconut mullerlight and it wasn't really that nice so I had about two spoonfuls and then changed my mind! Ended up having an Alpen Light (1 hexb) and a cup of tea.

Lunch: Lunch was a big salad - turkey, lettuce, tomatoes, egg, red onion, peppers and sweetcorn, sprayed with Frylight balsamic.

Snack: Was a bit hungry mid-afternoon so had a fruit salad of melon, strawberries, apple, pear and nectarine, sprinkled with some canderel.

Dinner: OH took me out for dinner last night, we usually go to one of the restaurants that has a SW menu but decided last night to go somewhere else for a change, to my surprise this restaurant had a new "slimmer's choice" menu! So I had grilled cajun chicken served with rice and salad, and a cheeky quarter bottle of Mc Guigan's white wine ... not sure of the syns for this, I'm saying 7 or 8 ? Maybe more? Anyway it was lovely ! And then when I got home I had a Curly Wurly (6 syns) and some tea. Definitely don't regret the wine! It went down a treat

Total syns: 14+ ??!

Today, I'm going shopping. I think I'll make a SW chicken curry with SW chips for dinner later, and I'm planning on having a nice packet of Snack a Jacks salt and vinegar whilst watching the X Factor! Can't wait! Now to start cleaning my house ... gonna have a workout with the hoover
