Hummingbird's Green Day Bonanza

[riahummingbird]

Hey everyone, hope you're all having a great weekend and making the most of this lovely weather!

2 situations today which would normally mean a big pig out of booze and junk so we will see how I get on! BBQ this afternoon and the eurovision tonight. Bit of a saddo i really love the eurovision and it usually involves lots of sangria and fattening nibbles with it. I will be cutting the booze out this year (songs probably won 't seem much good when i'm sober lol), bf anyway so it's just not worth it. The food will be free and low syn treats.

Breakfast- syn free cheese scones and bbq baked beans.

BBQ lunch- 2 veg skewer kebabs, lots of salad, stuffed mushrooms with rice peppers and cheese (hea), 1 quorn sf burger (think fom memory these are 2.5 syns, will check later), bap (heb), tsp ketchup .5 syns. So 3 syns for the bbq. The bap was white so not strictly a heb but i'm allowed a tweak now and then

Probably something free, quick and small for dinner, pasta n sauce maybe.

Tonight's food:

syn free cheese scones, dairylea triangles (hea), cherry toms, beetroot.
yoomoo frozen yogurt 7.5 syns
mikado (can have 9 going by syns left) 4.5 syns
frozen quorn fillets spiced, cooked and sliced.
I have another heb to play around with too so i might well use that. I know this seems alot, but trust me compared to a 'normal' Sat night this is positively angelic :innocent0002:!

Weigh in tomorrow.....


hea- 2

heb- 3

syns- 10

 

[riahummingbird]

Hmmm edits seem to be going a bit awry for some reason.

Anyway, weigh in tomorrow. Not sure what to think as far as a loss goes. To be perfectly honest last sunday I ate about two weeks worth of syns because i knew i was starting back. I know this is entirely the wrong attitude to take but being good a while and then being very bad is my pattern. Last week i recall having; pizza, garlic bread, sensations ( a big pack), cheesecake....

As a result this week has probably been more damage limitation than anything lol.

The scales will tell all!

 

[riahummingbird]

Lost 2lbs :bliss::bliss:
wel pleased with that

 

[Ally89]

Well done

 

[riahummingbird]

Glad i got a loss this week after 100% week, at least i know i can do it. It's given me the incentive to keep the 100% up and not have a wee treat to reward myself tonight! Also managed to avoid the diet pitfalls in my mum's today lol, there's a first time for everything!

Breakfast- on the run; handful of grapes, activia ff yog

lick of ds1's ice cream cone 1syn??

Lunch- wm pitta heb (rather than the lovely white baguette covered in cheese that everyone else was having), salad, ff dressing, tomato, beetroot, pickled onions, cheese (hea). Avoided the victoria cake as well, rather save my syns for later.

mugshot pasta.

Dinner- planning to do sausages and burgers in baps (wm pitta for me, heb) salad, so maybe 4 syns for the mf burgers and sausages. Might do some sw wedges, these went down well last time. Mini milk 1.5 syns and one of those equinox fake beers if there's one in the fridge. Hopefully have this out in the garden bu can't be bothered bbq-ing!

 

[riahummingbird]

Woo woo just noticed my bmi is now in the healthy range! Just about but still!

 

[Ally89]

Yay, you are officially healthy Can't wait to see mine in overweight, never mind normal

 

[riahummingbird]

Been busy the past few days so haven't had a chance to update my food diary, i've been keeping a record like the good girl I am though and will paste it in below. Today is going to be a flexi syn day heading out for dinner with a few girls from work, haven't seen them in a month or so as i'm off so i'm really looking forwad to that! I'll be doing my best to make a healthy choice, probably pasta but dessert may well be on the menu! Still, that's the joy of flexi days, I'll be right back on it tomorrow again.

Also, i've got my maternity leave extended so won't be heading back until September, yay! Hoping that the weather will be as nice as it was the past week.

Plenty of walking on the body magic side and i was very good at the show, walked right past the dinky donut stand where i'd made a pig of myself the year before!

[riahummingbird]

So, a good start to the week with another good weigh in! Hope everyone is enjoying their bank holiday weekend and behaving, if you're not I hope you're having fun

Well, I said i was shocked at my weigh in, that's because i wasn't exactly on plan yesterday .....

We took the lo's to see the wiggles yesterday and we all had a ball. Went to the market beforehand as we had a bit of time to kill and that's where it all went pearshaped lol. Found an Italian patisserie and it had the most divine desserts. Got a slice of plum and cardamom for dh and contented myself with a tiny almond biscuit (3 syns?) and an alpen light. Then i couldn't resist anymore and got a white choc raspberry and pistachio slice to take away. Ah well i had good intentions, big breakfast, plenty of fruit in the bag.... Ate it all too mind

2.5lbs on this week :break_diet:

It's well deserved though, only 100% 4 days this week and a bit lazy on it too, just feeling too ill and sorry for myself though! Start afresh again today and try an shift that by next monday!

Will have to get a bit better at updating my food diary, hopefully seeing what i'm eating will help.
