Purplebint's Diary

What about a nice lentil spiced soup? Would that make you feel better?
 
I've just been treated to a SW grill up from the hubby and kids. So that's lunch sorted :) He's even cleaned the kitchen afterwards....

I think tonight will just be curry leftovers with egg fried rice.

Lentil soup is a great idea though, will chuck some in the slow cooker tomorrow for lunches over the week.
 
Lovely leftovers. Chicken curry and egg fried rice

It's weigh in tonight, our group has now split into two so I have to to to the later group at 7:30 so will have to eat dinner beforehand. So this week will be a write-off losswise but means I can eat normally in future weeks without worrying about it too much. I think I had a chance at getting my 4.5 stone shiny today too, meh.
 
4lbs off for me, 65lbs total on SW 93lbs lost in total since my heaviest. I got my 4.5 stone shiny last night :)

Planned food today

Breakfast - Porridge with cherries, hexb + 1/2 hexa milk


Lunch - Possibly chip shop chips (my reward to hubby for supporting me for so long with the weight loss, he's been craving proper chip shop chips) . Yup, chippy chips (227g - 17.5 syns according to syns online) + some homecooked low syn sausage (1.5syns) + 2syns of ketchup.

Dinner - Moussaka made with slow cooked bolognaise with lots of added spinach and a syn free 'cheesy' topping. Will have a huge salad too.

Drinks so far

2 mug green tea
2 mug black tea - 1/2 hexa milk
2 glass NAS
1 can diet coke

Fantasic loss!! Well done!
 
Thank you both :) I can't quite believe I'm succeeding with this, I was pretty sure it was going to be just another diet I would try and fail at. I am glad to be proved wrong :)
