Hi

Don't beat yourself up, we all have bad days, mine are Friday, saturday and sunday when the alcohol monster comes out to play lol.

I am so glad I joined this site, it really has helped me keep on track. I will have a look for those diaries, I have seen a few. Thankyou.

Why dont you start counting weekly syns, give yourself 105 per week, this way you can have say 20 one day, 10 another, it averages out and that way you can still have your food craving blow outs.

Thursday 21st April 2011

Breakfast
2 weetabix & 200ml semi skimmed milk ( hea 1 & heb 1)

Lunch
Boiled eggs, 2 slices of nimble tbsp of lurpak lighter ( heb 2 & 4 syns)

Dinner
Ate out tonight with work, stressed out for about an hour earlier in the day going through the menu checking syn values - never going to pizza express AGAIN! Ended up having a verdura, which is a pizza with the middle cut out, which is filled with salad. Also got red peppers, courgettes & sweet onions on it. The margarita version was 25 syns for whole pizza - so not sure if this would be many more. Ps debated on whether just to have the tomato & mozzarella salad - sounds innocent enough - 20 syns!!!! Perhaps I could have used cheese as hea 2 reducing syn value but the fact I was the only person not having a starter drew enough attention to me as it was!! Plus I'm not a huge salad eater at the best of times!

Snacks
Lily o brien sweet (3 syns), orange, banana, grapes, alpen light bar (3 syns), coke zero & 4 teas with milk from hea 2 allowance

Total syns: 35 syns ( but on the plus side I drank 2 litres of water today!!)
