I can safely say wine never gets wasted in this house! It's great being able to eat things like steak and chips - doesn't feel like a diet at all! I do prefer my chips with oil rather than frylight though so I try and save my healthy extra for the oil.
Currently proud of myself resisting my daughters cheesy pizza (I love love love pizza!!)

Well the weekend wasn't so bad, I did have a few glasses of wine, and the biscuit monster attacked last night, but mostly my meals were on track, apart from Saturday night's but that is a result of really needing to eat through the freezer before my big muscle food delivery comes in a couple of weeks.
I'm seriously sleep deprived today, daughter is ill (again) and had a really bad night. So I'll be surviving mostly on coffee today and probably fast asleep by 8pm tonight - I was going to be going out for food and drinks tonight with a friend but I've had to reschedule - I won't be able to keep my eyes open.
Hoping this week will be another good week
Monday 18th January

Lunch: Lentil, tomato and aubergine dhal with rice
Dinner: Spaghetti Bolognese, broccoli, parmesan cheese (half HEXA)
Snacks etc: Milk in coffees (half HEXA)
Total syns: 0!

Oh dear had a bit of a blow out yesterday- chocolate, biscuits and some wine.
Not good and I woke up with a pounding headache too, which I'm sure is no coincidence.
I'm on my way to London this morning, armed with yoghurt, fruit and alpen lights for my breakfast and snacks. Just hope I can find somewhere to get a reasonably low syn salad for lunch. I was good yesterday and cooked a lamb curry in the slow cooker - so that's ready for tea tonight when I'm home later.

Well I've just weighed in this morning and I'm another 3lb down. This is a bit strange for me - I'm never this good at consecutively losing, but it's really boosting me and making me want to carry on!
Only slight issue I may have next week is I'm going out for a meal and drinks the night before weigh-in but I'll choose well food-wise and stay away from cocktails!!
Wishing everyone a great weekend

First time eating out today - we went to spoons and I picked the superfood pasta - lots of veg and a kale pesto, with chicken breast. I saved my HEXB for any oil and maybe an extra 4 syns just in case? It's a bit tricky to guess but I'm pleased with my choices for my first meal out.
Next week will be trickier, I'm out with a friend Thursday, theatre trip and more meals out Saturday and a harvester lunch Sunday. I've just got to pick what looks like the best option I guess

It was quite nice, especially with all the veg in it, but I did find it a little bit bland. I was glad I had the chicken with it. It was between that, pasta pomodorro or the chicken and pepper skewers, they all looked like the best options, apart from steak and salad
