Thanks Keiragh
Here i am starting again. Although i was truly fed up with myself at the end of last week, ive managed ok over the weekend and have been trialing green days with some success. Scary to think im trying green after all this time of never ever doing one day, but ive found i need to prepare a lot less (which helps with working full time and having 2 young children) and i think as long as i continue to avoid pasta (unfortunately) i should be ok. Anyway here goes.
Monday
Weight 10.3, sadly but at least that means i didnt gain after my meltdown.
GREEN DAY:
B: ww yog (free), banana (free)
S: mini babybell x 2 (HXA)
L: homemade pepper soup (assume this is superspeedy, as its only got peppers, tomatoes, garlic and curry powder in)
Ainsley spice sensation cous cous if im still hungry (1/2 syn)
S: muller (free)
D: 3 rashers bacon (HXB), beans, fried egg (? syns for oil), mushrooms, oatcake (? syns) and sausage x 2 (? syns - sausages arent a HXB are they?)
I know my evening meal isnt the best choice for my 1st day back on track but the sausages and oatcakes need eating so i think if i can behave throughout the day, im ok with it and tomorrow will be a 100% day.
Ive also got with me 42g crunchy bran (HXB) and 3 sweet onion ryvitas with light phili (HXA & B) but i may not use these at all and i certainly wont be using both, theyre just for emergencies so that i dont reach for the biscuit tin in the office.
I got some new boots at the weekend and spent a while trying on outfits from my wardrobe to see what went with them. I was horrified to see that many things although they fit, are quite unsightly at the moment which i think kicked me up the *rse quite well. Im certainly very bloated at the moment and i hope drinking a lot of water will help that.
I know i can post this elsewhere and get a quicker answer, but can you tell me if the batchelors savory rice are free or at least low syn please. I had one for lunch both days over the weekend, and assumed they must be 2 syns at most. Ive only got old books and i know 'rules' can change quite a bit over time. I wont be having another till the weekend anyway so am in no rush.
Think i need to check out some green diaries though sharpish.
Thanks for my pep talk, Keiragh, it helped.
