Well good afternoon all!
Official weigh-in this morning and 0.5lbs off, so 11st 5.5lbs now
Would have loved more but even that's an achievement after 3 days of eating all the bad food in the house (I swear I must have been eating about 5000 kcals each day!!) and drinking everything I wanted on NYE... those 4 days of being 100% on plan were worth it to ensure I didn't get a gain
So in group this morning I sat and wrote my menu for the coming week, and then went food shopping straight after to get everything I needed, so I am 100% set up for this week, yay!
Have even planned my snacking, and am about to make a big batch of butternut & chilli soup for when I get peckish throughout the week. Bought a load of laughing cow light cheese so I can snack on those in the evenings, as I often struggle to use my HEAs. I've also sat and written the syns on each of the selection pack chocolates I now have in the house (I bought the packs when they were cheap so I could have the chocs out of them as my low-syn treats) so there won't be any guessing at syn values - no excuses!
Now all I need to do is stick to my plan!! Weigh-in is next Wednesday (back to normal timing now xmas and ny is over), so I have 5 days to try and lose 2lbs, the target I set myself at group. Tuesday night could be tricky as I have to go out for a meal with my new team at work, so I will have to exercise my self-control... will definitely drive to avoid any alcohol syns!
So here's today's food plan...
B - Banana
L - Choconana Sandwich (B) (2), Tea
D - Thai Red Chicken Curry leftovers (4) with Rice & Green Veg
S - Butternut Squash & Chilli Soup, Strawberries, Laughing Cow Extra Light x 6 (A)
Now time to sort out the NYE photos, there are some shockers!!
