WW yoghurt

Tea - Chicken korma (12 syns)
Brown rice

[mummy84]

Hey all
Day 5 and feel great - really energised Have got two nights out over weekend so I hope I can stay within my syns and on track.
My plan of action for tomorrow is have tea before I go out then count my drinks as syns. Does any1 know how many syns are in 25ml of vodka - think its 2.5 I'll probably drink one vodka & coke then a coke then another vodka & coke so I don't go over my syns
Saturday is a girls night in with a takeaway later so think it will be a low syn chinese or indian such as dansak or chicken in oyster sauce with boiled rice Alcohol wise Im gonna look out for a low calorie wine hehe.
Well today as been 100% day for me yay!!!
So heres what I have eaten today

Week 1 Day 5

Breakfast - 2 slices of toast (HEXB) with 2 teaspoons chocolate spread (3 syns)

Dinner - 3 egg omelette with ham (1 syn used for vegetable oil)

Tea - 2 Beef Steaks, SW chips, Fried mushrooms & tomatoes with 2 tablespoons extra light mayo (1 syn)
All cooked with fry light

My favourite meal today was definately my tea hehe My overall syn total is 5 syns but may have a low calorie hot choc before bed so will take it to 7 syns in total
Also included is milk used in my cuppas throughout tea although does anyone find if they use milk as a HEXA that they dont use all the 250ml. I only use my whole allowance on a sunday when I add milk to the potatoes to make them creamier

 

[mummy84]

Hello again
One day to go to weigh in
Today has been another good day so I'm quietly confident I've lost at least a 1lb which is better than ought All will be revealed 2moro morning when I wake up
Today Ive eaten

Breakfast - Porridge (HEXB) 1 teaspoon chocolate spread (1.5 syns)

Dinner - Jacket Potato with Chilli Con Carne & salad (not sure how many syns as I had it from Morrisons Cafe)

Tea - Mackerel & cottage cheese with salad


The menu stated the jacket potato with chilli con carne was 530 calories but that would make it 26 syns which sounds silly. Obviously the kidney beans, mince & herbs would be free but not sure how they make so I could add up the total syns If anyone knows please let me know

 

[mummy84]

Just realised I wrote my food diary as week 1 when it was actually week 2 lol. So Im now on week 3 lol sorry to confuse everyone as well as myself lol

 

[mummy84]

1lb loss this week Will spur me on to be 100% next week

So after confusing myself what week Im on (its ok I started back on plan a week before I started my food diary lol), I think I know where I am lol.

Pleased to say weigh in was today and I've lost a 1lb which I expected has Ive had a few slip ups this week

Not very often Im pleased with myself but today I am hehe
Yesterday I had a girls night in with the lasses and throughly enjoyed myself. I usually say to myself before a night out that I will stick to X number of drinks within my syns but usually fail lol. Well I can say for the first time in a long time I have actually stuck to my syns YAY!!!!

[mummy84]

No point weighing in 2moro

I truly hate myself at moment
Have stayed 100% most of week except 2 days where I went about 6 syns over but guess what the day b4 weigh in (today) I go and have a takeaway
I just can't help myself, I work really hard only to sabotage my hard work.
I feel like crying I know Im not that overweight anymore and most people say I look great the size I am but it maddens me I cant lose this extra 12lbs because Im lacking self control in last bit of my weight loss journey.
I have said to my partner Im gonna start my dvd workout as of tomorrow but I just hope I dont fall at the next hurdle next week.
Sorry to rant and sound depressing but I'd go mad if I didn't share my thoughts

Keep your chin up and remember tomorrow is another day, draw a line under it, get your DVD out and get sweaty... you'll feel better in no time
