LOL, I dont have any secrets. I dont drink, well, I drink or I would die, but not alcohol, unless its a very special occasion, I am sticking to the plan pretty much 100%, I use my syns for cereal bars generally, I have only had one day where I went over syns and that was only by 1 syn.
I eat a lot of salad, and fresh fruit. I always have at least one speed food per day, usually blackberries and strawberries. For breakfast I have a muller lite with a huge bowl of fresh fruit, and then either a cereal bar with it, or crumbled into it, if its a strawberry one. If I dont have the cereal bar with it, I have it mid morning as a snack. I walk pretty much everywhere I go, unless its too far to walk, which means anything beyond about 2 miles away. I walk to group and back every week, and do at least 2x10 minute walks a day either taking or picking up the girls from school, sometimes 3, if they are coming out at different times. Yesterday FE, I did 4, because I had to pick the baba up at 3 from preschool and then go back at 4.30 for the munchkin who had afterschool drama club. Because I dont drive, if I need anything from the local shops I walk there and back too, and sometimes do a little weight lifting with the shopping bags on the way home.
I have 4 meals a day, breakfast, lunch of some sort of salad and meat, or cous cous and tuna or egg, usually with a handful of cherry tomatoes, and then for tea I will do something like the KFC chicken or syn free sausages, or a bolognaise. At the moment I am trying to stick to red days, so have cut out a lot of carbs and I have found that the bloating I have been experiencing has gone down. The only carbs I am really having at the moment are the cereal bars.
I drink tea and coffee to use my HexA up, with skimmed milk, but rarely finish all my allowance. I probably have 3 or 4 cups of tea or coffee during the day, and apart from that its water or diet coke. I use my HexB on cereal bars too. To be honest, I am probably overdoing the cereal bars, but for a chocolate addict like me it is a blessing because I do feel like I have had a chocolate bar.
For supper, I usually crumble a choc fudge alpen into a toffee muller. It fills me up nicely and feels like I have eaten a Muller Corner.
Thats about it really. I am not doing excessive levels of exercise, although I will start to increase that, but I am happy with the amount I am doing at the moment. Lots of housework helps. And I seem to have remarkably high levels of housework to do at the moment
EF, considering your injury, the fact that you are losing anything at all is stunning. I would be lying flat on my back crying and feeling sorry for myself, but then I am a wuss. Oh, and PS, its Tuesday. So good luck to all the Tuesday weighers as well.
