The Food Update Post
Right.
Am going to try and remember my food since that last time I posted about it on Sunday. Will probably forget bits
.
Actually just found some piccies I haven't put up yet.
(All breakfasts were Fruit 'n ' fibre (HExB), soya milk, linseeds & grape-nuts unless otherwises stated)
Last Friday's (
Green day) lunch:
coucous, roasted veg, apple, peach, pear.
dinner:
prawn curry w/rice & w'meal pitta (HExB) This had syns in as I used LF coconut milk and a dine in rice as I was being too lazy too cook the rice from scratch. Also as I was doing green I had to syn the prawns but that was because the prawn syns were less than the pitta I would've had to syn if I'd switched to EE. Can't remember how many syns now tho (don't think it matters now :giggle
pretty sure I didn't go over 15 for the day, but all my syns were in this one meal.
Saturday: Green day
Banana for brekkie IIRC
Lunch: Leftover curry and rice from last night's dinner.
I added Quorn-chicken pieces. I cooked in the microwave covered for 12 mins as per instructions but though I wouldn't need to cover them in sauce to do so...WRONG!!! They were tough and like cardbard and I just couldn't eat them and ended up poking them out of the curry and getting myself a w/meal pitta (HExB) to make up for it.
Dinner:
Pasta 'n' sauce (wholemeal garlic & herb, 1 or 2 syns)
Slimming World chips / wedges
W/meal pitta (HExB)
I think I went a bit carb crazy on this day but put it down to all the exercise I did on Friday (2 hours 20mins cycling and 40 mins squash) was just craving carbs (don't think it matters now :giggle
Sunday: Green day
(see above, post #82)
Monday: Green day
L - Superspeed soup, vegetable frittata, peach, apple
D - Mushroom & spicach burger, quorn sausages (12.5 syns don't think it matters now :giggle
, w/meal pitta, mango, chilli & lime salsa, stir-fry veggies
Tuesday: Red day
L - Superspeed soup, 2 peaches
D - Mackrel, kale, stir-fry veggies
Options sachet stirred in to 400ml soya milk (HExA)
Wednesday: Green day
L - African sweet potato & butterbean stew (3 syns) Vegetable frittata (3 syns for pasta in frittata)
D - Jacket potato, quorn chilli, chargrilled courgette
Think my hand slipped with the cayenne and scoth bonnets so I added a little bit of quark (as a syn free substitute to sour cream). Tasted very similar I think.
400ml soya milk (no options sachet the day before WI
)
Today: EE
No breakfast
Lunch out with SW group:
S - smoked salmon w/ caper and lemon juice dreassing & salald leaves
M - Mediterreanean roasted vegetables (sweet potato, aubergine, red/yellow pepper, white onion, mushrooms, courgette) w/ haloumi cheese and balsamic glaze. (As well as the sweet potato it also came with potato wedges - looked like they'd been deep fried
). They were quite nice but I only had a few as the rest of the portion was massive.
D - Lemon posset, topped with blueberries and with a (small) choc chip cookie
Jasmine green tea, small triangle of caramel shortcake.
Have no idea of the syns. Hope it wasn't more than 15 but maybe that's wishful thinking.
Have not eaten anything since - was so full and by the time I got home had a decidedly upset tummy - it's fine now. I don't think my body likes high-fat food anymore (tbh I don't think it ever did I just developed a tolerence, christ knows what my arteries looked like
)
I'm feeling hungry now so may have a glass of (soya) milk before I gan to bed.
