Gobolino's Food Diary - converted to ww now!

[gobolino]

I stayed the same. Not too happy about it as I had talked myself into the fact that it'd be a 2-4lb loss based on the weight I was tracking at home.

Also a bit fed up with class eating up my evening. I need to reclaim so me-time, its driving me mad to feel like I dont have enough time all the time. So, I've been thinking of switching classes, I couldnt even stay to have my bit of time with consultant this evening, but I spent so long weighing in loads of people. I think the class is just to late for me, plus I need my evenings to chill out, prep food for next day, shower earlier in the night etc. So I'm going to switch to one of my consultants earlier classes, I dont want to let my consultant down but I feel it'll be for the best.

Dont weigh in for two weeks now as I'm using another holiday week next week.

Aw don't be too disheartened Gobolino :bighug:- I know it's tough when you've worked so hard though. Chin up chick, you'll nail that loss next time. The way you've been going it's just going to be one of those irritating blips for no reason. Don't let it knock you back, keep focused hun!

Good idea re: moving class. You have to put yourself first and if you feel you can use your time better elsewhere then go for it. I wouldn't want to do an evening class for the very reasons you mentioned. Good luck for this week x

 

[gobolino]

Thanks for the Bighug! Will email my consultant this week and explain.... at least I'll still be going to one of her classes

Trying to think about my menu for tomorrow:
B- apple, banana, kiwi and yog
D- out for lunch have chosen veggie wrap with peppers and onions (6 syns for wrap, HA for cheese -will leave it at that as it's pointless me trying to guess the actual syns.... I might call it HB for any oil too). Served with an undressed salad (ooo-er)
T-Jacket and beans with tom, cu, sweetcorn and peas !

 

[gobolino]

Rubbish day today. I realise that I'm not very good when it comes to guessing syns and drawing a line. I had the lunch out, which seemed a bit oily, plus a colleague brought in flapjacks h/m (I usually wouldnt have any but I did today and again not knowing the syns exactly did push me more off plan)..... snickers on the way home

Grrrrrr, let me get out my permanent marker and draw a great hunk of a line to put all this beind me.

Tomorrow will be the start of my new week, I'll be weighing in next thursday instead of tuesday

 

[Beegee]

[Beegee]

Ooh custard - blooming gorgeous! I like the sound of your mash too - how did you do it?

 

[gobolino]

Leeky mash for 4 includes 2 leeks sauteed in fry light till cooked, 84g cathedral city lighter, 100ml warmed whole milk, tbsp philli light. Cook a pan of potatoes and mash with the milk and philli (I alter amounts and type of milk depending on what I have in the house), add the leeks and a teaspoon of wholegrain mustard, salt and pepper. Basically I add enough healthy extra A's to make it 1 HA per portion.... pretty yummy with or without the leeks

Here's todays foodies:
B- banana and 10 aldi version of ryvita (HB HB + 3syns)..... I didnt mean to eat that many

D- mash (HA), sweetcorn, peas. Raspberries and strawberries with yog.

Exercise -possibly a lunchtime walk but the evening is free for cooking and spending time with hubby

 

[gobolino]

Here's todays menu:

Breakfast: Strawbs, raspberries, banana, dried apricots (HB)..... followed by weetabix (HB) and a splash of HA milk. I didnt want to have two of my HB's for breakfast again, but thats what happened!

[Beegee]

Menu looks ace, I love gnocchi but haven't had it for ages - enjoy!

 

[gobolino]

Thanks Beegee. The gnocci was a nice change and really something filling for so few syns.

Here's todays menu. I think I'm doing ok so far but feel sooooo much on the verge of over indulging!

B-3 weetabix (HB +3syns), milk (HA), dried apricots (HB)

D-veggie beany chilli and jacket

Sn- strawberries, banana, apples, 66g wholemeal roll (7syns!), spread (1syn)

T-cheesy leeky mash (not quite a HA portion, say 3/4HA), 3 L/Mc sausages (1.5syns), peas and sweetcorn

Syns so far = 12.5

I think the cold is making me hungrier, hence the big breakfast! I'm about to have a hot chocolate which is going to take me over my syns, I just hope I can cap it at that -fingers crossed

...... so 5 syns for a hot chocolate, takes the total to 17.5syns. I'm pretty full now though, so hopefully the hot choc was a good choice!

 

[gobolino]

..... 1 more hot chocolate (5syns) and a pot of custard (6syns)

Total =28.5 Grrrrrrr
