Weigh in
Well I think that proves that keeping a food diary works...I lost 1.5lb. Very pleased with that as it's not been a perfect week but by writing things down I have definitely kept on track. Going to carry on with the food diary next week in an attempt to lose 2lb which will bring me to my first stone since re-joining.
My Food Diaries
Wednesday:
I was a bit dis-organised for the first day of my food diary week so ended up with no S foods for breakfast - I had my coffee with sweetener and lacto free milk (some of my A choice) and 30g of All Bran Chocolate Wheats (B choice). Then I had a very stressful journey to work resulting in a flat tyre, the RAC, an expensive Kwik Fit Bill and a two and a half hour delay! After pulling off the Kwik Fit carpark, I realised I needed petrol so stopped at the next garage...and purchased a 4 finger kit kat (whoops). It was only after I'd eaten it that I checked the Syns - 11.5!! Not a good start to the day or the week. Fortunately I had prepared lunch of tuna, sweetcorn, cucumber, broccoli, tomatoes and balsamic vinegar. When I got home I had a coffee with the rest of my A choice - lacto free milk. For tea I had a chicken breast with ratatouille made from tinned tomatoes, red pepper, onion and mushrooms. I drank water and diet coke. All in all not a bad day, SP really although I didn't have my 2nd B choice. (11.5 total syns)
Friday:
I started the day again with 30g All Bran Chocolate Wheats, coffee, sweetener and some lacto free milk along with some melon. I had planned an Indian feast for my parents coming to dinner so I had a very busy day preparing. For lunch I ate leftover chow mein (made for tea the night before) which contained noodles and lots of vegetables. Dinner as I said was an Indian feast starting with homemade samosas (1 syn each), homemade onion bhajis (1 syn each), poppudoms (2 syns each), tomato, onion and cucumber salad then a main course of pilau rice, prawn dopiaza, chicken tikka masala and lamb rogan josh (all Slimming World recipes and all syn free. I had 2 each of the starter items so 8 syns for that plus a few glasses of wine!! (uncounted syns)
Saturday:
It is a bit of a tradition that we have bacon sandwiches on a Saturday morning so this morning's breakfast was bacon (all fat removed), a wholemeal roll (B choice), 1 tbsp tomato ketchup (1 syn), melon afterwards and coffee made with lacto free milk (some of my A choice). For lunch I had a tuna salad but this time with extra light mayo (1 tbsp - 1 syn), tuna, sweetcorn, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, grated carrot, gherkin. I work on a Saturday evening starting at 3pm so I took a bag of poshcorn (6 syns) for a snack and leftover lamb rogan josh with pilau rice for my tea. Drinks were water, coffee and diet coke (8 total syns)
Sunday:
Work starts at 7am today so I took melon and ham, half a tin of tomatoes and 1 slice of wholemeal bread from a 400g loaf to toast (B choice). For lunch I had made double of the tuna salad yesterday so 1 syn for the mayo then for tea I had chicken cooked with peppers, onions, mushrooms and pasta with a 1/4 pack of fajita spice mix (1 syn) topped with 15g mozzarella (half an A choice) along with a glass of rose (6 syns) (7 total syns). Drinks today were water, diet coke, coffee and wine.
