Ended last night with a muller yoghurt and when I still felt my sugar levels were low i had a mini mars, (4syns) really I should have had an apple but that took my total syns to 12.5. Later I couldn't sleep due to being kept awake and I fancied a biscuit, you know when you can't stop yourself? So I'm estimating another 5 syns? Only compensation is that I have almost 10 syns over from Wednesday, so not too bad but still annoyed at myself for having something I knew I shouldn't.

Good day today then,

B: weetabix
S: banana mullerlight
L: apple, pasta mug shot, LF nat yoghurt
S: banana, mullerlight

Hey

I'm new to this. I did EE a couple of years ago and kept all the books, and always since then religiously bought the SW mag coz I love it!!

However your diary has totally helped me, I was startin to get a lil frustrated shall we say that I was eatin my syns (near the max but not always over) and not gettin anywhere! Now I realise I've been classing the wrong veg as my SF or SS food, whatever it is thats supposed to be 33%.

:sigh: but still at least I know now, as well as not being able to have done my exercise last week.

Thank you so much for your postings!!

 

[SuperVic]

Hey thankyou for the lovely reply! Sticking to it is not so easy going, I feel like everyday I learn something new. I am still working away at trying to up my amount of super speed fruit and veg, it takes some thinking and planning! Sometimes it's not possible or you just don't fancy a full on meal but I try and snack on fruit during the day and often save my HEb for the evening.

Keep going and you'll eventually get there x

Right so today I think I am going to venture on to the green plan, the whole 3rd superfree is driving me crackers lol and since i don't eat much meat anyways this might be the way forward. My plate is normally topped up with some veggies anyways so I still have my intake of veggies. I then get 2 HEbs and 1 or 2 HEas which might make my day a bit easier.

So today, my first day on green. (any tips for a green day are welcomed)

B: 1 apple, pudding rice, half a pot of mullerlight and blueberries
S: banana
L: veg soup (left over from other day) 1 slice of brown bread (1 Heb - probably around 3/4 of a HEb but will go with 1 to be sure) mullerlight
S: pudding rice left over from this morning with 7.5g of jam (1syn)
S: milkyway (3.5 syns)
half a sausage and bean casserole made orginally with 1 large and medium carrot, 1 large leek, 3 quorn sausages, 6/7 cherry tomatoes, passata, 1 can of baked beans served with potatoes, parsnip and brocolli mash (eaten tonight without the leek wasn't cooked properly and tasted horrible lol)
Mullerlight
S: smash potato (was craving something lol) apple, LF nat yoghurt and an apple, mini m&m (5 syns) weetabix (HEb) 2 rich tea finger biscuit (2 syns) skittles (3.5 syns)

15 syns

Hi Vic

Wow pudding rice for brekkie?? like rice pudding?? that sounds amazing!!!!
I'd never though of having it for breakfast, how yummy!!!

I never have my full milk quota either by the way!! i've started having a milky hot chocolate to use the rest of my milk up each day!!!

 

[SuperVic]

yeah rice pudding, I read it on here somewhere and thought I'd give it a go. Was so yummy (and to be honest no different to having a mullerice) with the banana and blueberries, but won't be an everyday thing. Saves my HEb for later on when I struggle, although I have got plenty of syns left over for today.

Never usually measure it out and thought I'd be over but couldn't even fill the container up with the full quota of milk.

I haven't had rice pudding for years! I'm gonna try that one too - will also be handy on EE days with some fruit stirred in. Cheers Vic!

I've just spent 10 mins looking through your diary - you are doing really well hun

How have you felt doing 2 green days? Any fuller/hungrier/different?

What day is WI for you?

 

[SuperVic]

That's no problems Ali!
Weigh in is Wednesday for me. At the moment I am trying to have some veggie soup for my lunch everyday. I am enjoying it and I make up enough for 2/3 lots. To be honest doing green days hasn't been much different. I will just notice it when I come to have a SW fry up with bacon and I then have to be careful when it comes to using my HEb for meat/fish, like today. I don't eat an awful lot of meat in fairness.

This week will be interesting however as I'm on half term.
