New Beginnings

[kered]

The above are the new tweaked core plan, and on top of this, you get 49pp to use weekly. I am loving it. This new plan also allows bread.


The rules for a Filling & Healthy day

• Choose a Filling & Healthy day as often or a little as you like. You simply decide which approach to counting you want to take, on a day-by-day basis.
• Focus on eating Filling & Healthy foods throughout the day.
• Ignore the ProPoints values and portion sizes of any Filling & Healthy foods you eat on this day. Instead use your feelings of satisfaction as your guide to how much to eat.
• You should include two teaspoons of healthy oil in your meals and recipes for the day (sunflower, olive, flaxseed, safflower or rapeseed oil) without counting them. If you eat more than two teaspoons of healthy oil during the day, deduct the additional ProPoints values from your weekly ProPoints allowance.
• Use your weekly allowance for any non-Filling & Healthy foods you eat during the day.
• There are certain drinks, seasonings and condiments you can have in unlimited quantities too such as Coffee and tea, black or with skimmed milk (without sugar), diet fizzy drinks and water.

It's nice to get away from mr Smirnoff now & again x

I wont desert him for too long though, he is always my long trusted friend that I keep returning to, I could never end our relationship

 

[Zenaworrier]

How is it going Mary? Well done on the loss- glad you have found something that works so well for you x

 

[kered]

Thank you T, it is working well for me and I dont feel as though I am dieting as such, just a healthy way of life, eating healthy foods and minimum processed foods. Really enjoying it and focused on it at the moment.

Edited to add 2 Thorntons Choccies to yesterdays list. I told myself I could have 2 as I was really fancying some chocolate, but no more than 2, so at least I didnt feel deprived of something and I stuck to the 2. Really pleased with that.

Been a busy day today before my first nightshift, shopping, cleaning, cooking curry, but a pleasant day.

Weather is terrible tonight, and driving to work was quite horrendous really. It seemed darker, with constant drizzle and all the headlights seemed so much brighter than usual. Roll on Summer.

Menu Today.

B - Porridge, skimmed milk/water.
D - Chicken Curry, Brown Rice. LF yogurt.
Snack - 1 apple.
T - 3 ryvita, tuna, onion, mayo. 0% Greek Yogurt and Pineapple Chunk.
Snack - 1 pear and 2 tangerines for during the night.
