Hello 
I've just started slimming world and I'm in my second week. My start weight was 9 stone and 8lbs and so far I've lost 6lbs.
My Sister's birthday was this week, so I fully expect to have gained weight as I had three small glasses of wine and alcohol seems to be the issue with me for weight gain.
Foodwise i'm not sure I'm doing this right.
For example yesterday I ate:
Breakfast:
Porridge made with plain oats and water. Topped with a Banana
Black coffee with half a teaspoon of sugar (1/2 a syn)
Lunch:
Macaroni pasta topped with rocket and flavoured with a chili salt and herb spice mix (I'm not sure if this has syns)
Snack: a clementine
Dinner:
Two eggs and some left over boiled potatoes (cooked in Fry Light), two pieces of parma ham with the fat cut off, baked in the oven.
1 Gin and soda water. (4 syns)
Total: 4 and 1/2 syns
Today:
Breakfast:
Porridge made with plain oats and water. Topped with a Banana and one tablespoon golden syrup (1 syn)
Black coffee with no sugar
Lunch:
Rocket and raw asparagus and Fat Free cottage cheese. Flavoured with lemon and black pepper.
A tropical fruit salad made with pineapple, kiwi, melon and mango
Black coffee with no sugar
Diet Coke ( I know, even though I don't like Aspartame)
Dinner:
Probably: Chicken breast sprinkled with chili and herb spice mix, with mashed butter beans and mange tout
1 Syn
Is this right? I feel like I've put weight on, rather than lost it but that could be the meal for my sister's birthday at the start of the week.
