1.Date: Mon 22/09/14
2.Cycle : Get Fit
3. Day of Challenge: 1
4. Plan: Red
5. Water/NAS: 2.5 plus Green tea x 2 (also had capuchin but that doesn’t count)
6. Carbs: None
7. Exercise: Lots of walking but not too strenuous
8. Total syns: Alpen Light 3, Dairy Milk 4.5 plus a small cup of skinny cappuchino without chocolate?

Not sure of the syns for the coffee but I haven't had a hex a today, apart from that. Hope that's ok, Kay? it was a little hard being out and in the cafe where everyone else was eating yummy baguettes and cakes!! I'd left my salad in the car, so had to wait till later but was determined not to give in, hence the coffee to fill me up a bit. Oh and no photo, as I said on my diary page, I was too keen to tuck in by the time I got my salad and had munched it before I remembered. :rolleyes:

Edit : "also had capuchin but that doesn’t count" oops, lol, isn't that some kind of monkey?

Well done Rosie. How did it go for you? Did you feel hungry or not? Even though I've done the challenge before, it still surprises me that my salad really fills me up, mind you, I did have a whole big plastic box full of the greens and reds and oranges, along with my ham and egg. It took me ages to chomp through it ;)

Thanks everyone!
I enjoyed my salad and it did fill me up til tea at 7! I have got some chicken for tomorrow's which I hope to coat in spices (will try remember a pic!). The hardest part for me has been drinking 2L! I am terrible for not drinking enough so hope it is the start of new good habits :) x

I'm exactly the same re water intake and have to remind myself to drink enough most days. It's surprising how quickly you get used to the 2L though! And you feel so much better for it :)

Whoops - I made a mistake there I copy/pasted the format and didn't change the exercise section - I did some strenuous gardening and an exercise DVD - will edit now x
 
Hope it's going well for everyone? Kay is rather quiet... hope you're alright hun? I've munched lots of fruit and my salad today and drunk loads of squash, so going good. Body magic is clearing and moving boxes, back later with food report. x
