Looks like a balanced days eating with loads of fruit and veg

We always have a fridge full of veggies and two big bowls of fruit on the go.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

There is always a fruit bowl on the office paid out of petty cash so there isn't any excuse to eat biscuits but as I said I buy the biscuits I can't eat

 

[janetelizabeth]

I have to admit that I eat fruit as part of my meals not for snacking on...it doesn't even get near hitting the spot!! lol.

Scales declaring 3/4 down - 10.4 1/4lbs, getting more like it for tomorrow. It will be interesting to see how the usual scales weigh too...

 

[Jaffa Cake]

I eat mainly fruit for breakfast and sometimes as a morning or afternoon snack but never after 5pm as my digestion just won't tolerate it

 

[janetelizabeth]

Yes it's good to be aware if we have issues and sensitivities; Joseph can't eat fruit at the same meal as bread.

That looks like a good pre weigh in day

 

[janetelizabeth]

Unfortunately I've needed to have a few days like that again to get back down the scales...:sigh:

I asked my consultant tonight and I was right if you don't have a hex a or hex b you can have 5 or so extra syns but they don't advertise the fact as they want you to have your calcium and fibre portion but since I rarely have my calcium portion it's good to know.

 

[janetelizabeth]

Oh interesting, not that I need any excuse to have extra syns...lol, but how did you find that out? Just interested...

 

[Jaffa Cake]

I just asked her out right after class if I could convert the hexs I don't use into syns and technically you can as it's still calories in v calories out but it isn't recommended as you might miss out on vital nutrients but I take calcium and vit d tablets anyway which she knows

 

[janetelizabeth]

Amazing, I never would have even considered swapping those.

Scales reading down 3/4 - 10.3 1/2...will be interesting to see what they say at group on our normal scales this week.

Good luck for WI!

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Your home weigh in sounds good

 

[janetelizabeth]

Thanks I was impressed too but group weigh in was 10.5 so STS... Not really impressed if I'm honest but oh well, better than a gain.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Oh that's really strange as usually your scales are so accurate
Did anyone else have a funny weigh in or complain ?

 

[janetelizabeth]

Only one as far as I know. I just find it odd because I wear the same skirt & jumper so all things should be equal really. Looking back in my diary 2 weeks ago and I was 10.3 1/2 at home and 10.4 in group... I was expecting that or 10.4 1/2 at the most! Oh well...still bang on target so better stop whingeing! :sigh:

 

[Jaffa Cake]

That is a big difference though how annoying.

Yes I wear the same leggings and just a vest top to get weighed as it's easier then working out if I weigh more or blaming my clothes
