Happy Friday! Thank GOD!

Not been too bad today...

Breakfast - 2 hard boiled eggs

I am out tonight so trying not to have any more syns today and save them for a few rum and diet cokes x

I went massively off plan last night. A few drinks turned into a lot of drinks, and that turned in to cheese on toast and more drinks.

Back on plan today , not going to beat myself up too much and be good for the rest of the weekend.

Breakfast is a SW fry up (3 syns)

 

[StephC84]

Oh bugger.... Looks like I still have a lot to learn. Drank loads of orange juice without even thinking about syns. No idea exactly how much I've drunk but at least 3 glasses. Am gutted

 

[StephC84]

Ok, I've obviously gone massively over this weekend I'm going to out it down to a blow out and leave it there, move on and have a better Sunday.

Had lots of cold meat and a mullet light as a snack when I got home, and dinner was SW chips, peas and gammon - trimmed of fat, and I added a couple of spoons of honey to the whole joint so I'll put it as 2 syns to be safe.

Sigh - I was doing so well!

Hi Steph,

After your post elsewhere I popped along to have a look at your food diary and the one thing that strikes me is that you don't have much emphasis on the 1/3 suprefree? Obviously it may be built in to foodstuffs, like where you had your casserole but there are quite a few meals that are lacking. Incorporating 1/3 superfree into each meal works not only to increase your vitamin intake etc etc yadayadayada but also fills you up on relatively few kcal and naturally limits the amount of free food and syns you pop onto your plate.

We all fall off the wagon and we all have times where we just can't face any more broccoli but as it's early days I would highly recommend that you put more emphasis on it in order to begin a downward trend in losing and then you can be a bit cheekier in what you have when you work out, over time what works for you.
