Michelle's Daily food diary

Didn't get time to complete yesterday but was 100% on plan, think I only had half a SYN
Tuesday EE
breakfast: 35g grape nuts, fruit, Greek yog
snack: banana, nectarines, carrot batons
lunch: salad, apple, clems
snack: muller light
dinner: chicken pie (0.5 SYN). Shape vanilla yog (0.5 SYN)

Total syns: 1

Exercise: day 1, week 8 c25k

Thoughts: bit gutted with myself this week for being off plan so often. Thursday night I knew would be bad but I didn't plan and have good, low SYN carb food for Friday, didn't t my salad and bought break etc. need to plan for those occasions so 1 meal out stays just that. Now have express rice for those days. Even if I don't do the 1/3 superfree it's better than having high syns food.

Thoughts: no idea how I lost that weight, need to be careful this week or could see a gain.
Rep lunch tomorrow so totally off plan then out for dinner in a wether spoons so will try to be a little sensible but won't worry too much. Oh and then out to the pub Friday night. Other than that 100% on plan!!
