Day 56

Breakfast: Banana, satsuma

Lunch: Ham, Cheese & Mushroom omelette, muller light

Dinner: Smoked salmon, packet of Tilda rice (2.5 syns), salad, Worcester Sauce

Syns & healthy extras: 2 x alpen lights, grapes

Had a half pound loss this week. Expected more however it was a covering consultant and thus a pair of different scales. So many people had unexpected gains, or larger than expected gains so I do think it would have been more, and hopefully will put me in the next stone down bracket next Thursday.

0.5lbs off this week
15.5lbs off in total

Day 57

Oh dear, oh dear

Breakfast: Banana, satsuma, grapes

Lunch: Pasta n Sauce (free, using milk as a healthy extra), alpen light (3 syns), had to syn it because I didn't have the other for a healthy extra, pack of cassava crackers (4 syns)

Dinner: Special Fried Rice - I can't remember how many syns now - might have been 18.

Unfortunately between 6-9 I went to a presentation evening for a playscheme that DS2 attends. They'd put a buffet on, I was starving, so you can guess what happened? I stuffed my admittedly thinner face with all I could, then went home and had the (planned) chinese. Say 30 syns for the buffet stuff?

Day 64

Really motivated and am going to go all out and try to shift that 3.5lbs in order to get to 1.5 stone off by next weigh in. I actually don't think I am eating enough 'proper food' now that I have got my constant snacking on crap under control, and quite often I don't always have my A choice healthy extra, so I'm going to do an SAS log for the next week.

Breakfast: Mugshot, 2 x banana, 1 x satsuma

Lunch: Mackerel and seafood sticks salad with kraft dressing (2 syns)

Dinner: 2 x fish in butter sauce (3 syns), herby potatoes, garden peas

Snacks: 2 x babybels, 17g pack of seabrooks crisps (5 syns), 2 x alpen lights, mullerlight, sachet of hot chocolate (2 syns)

I am on a course next week which on public transport / waiting for buses etc will mean a 4 hour daily commute and no canteen facilities so I've been meal planning for stuff I can eat cold, and then things we can have quickly for evening meals. I hope I can stay motivated.

I did make the chilli however I am going to freeze it and have it as ready meals for tea next week when I get in from my boring day and long travel. I'll probably be ravenous when I get home.
