Splashing about!

Busy day today so breakfast was on the run, 2 hifi light bars and 2 easy peelers.

Lunch was a BBQ mugshot, a pear and an orange.

Came home from work and ate earlier than usual as I had a fitness class to go to. I has a jacket potato with curry beans and mushrooms. Nowhere near as good as the BBQ beans but still edible and only 1 syn.

Went and did some splashing about in Aqua Fit. Was really fun and also a good workout, we even booked back in for next week :-)

Was a bit peckish when I got home so I snacked on some ham and strawberries. A really good day all round and only 1 syn passed my lips. Happy me :-)

Double blogging

Sorry for not posting last night, mega migraine and an early night for me!

Breakfast yesterday was a cheese and ham toastie.

Lunch was egg and potato salad followed by a banana.

Dinner last night was carvery as I was in no mood to be cooking! I had lots of meat and veg plus a splash of gravy. Minimal syns :-)

So this morning mother nature made an appearance (hence the migraine!) Breakfast was 2 wholemeal toast with ham and frylite eggs.

Lunch was a mugshot and a 7 syn Mr. Kipling slice (another office birthday!)

Got to weigh in this evening and lost 1/2lb. Considering it's my star week and I had a heavy roast for my dinner last night, I am very happy with that result!

Have a party this weekend, but I am going to make low syn buffet food and will do weekly syns, hopefully I will still get a loss on those scales next week!

Temptation!

So breakfast this morning was 2 slices of wholemeal toast with ham and frylite eggs.

Went to the cinema and whilst my nephews stuffed their faces with popcorn and rainbow drops, I had myself a skinny latte... was so tempted to get naughty cinema snacks but I didn't. So proud of myself for that!

Lunch was a tin of sardines in tomato sauce, a fat free yogurt and a pink grapefruit.

As I still had the washing up from last night to get on with I decided on a takeaway for dinner. I had a grilled chicken kebab with lots of salad and lemon juice. A chicken doner is 5.5 syns and then pitta is 9 so I will estimate my meal at 14.5 syns. I know it will be less than that as I had grilled meat but better to be safe than sorry!

Late blogging...

So last night I was looking after 2 of my nephews and also had the company of my bestie and her 6 year old son... hence no post... but I stayed on plan and I'm very happy about it!

Breakfast yesterday was 2 slices of wholemeal toast with 40g reduced fat cheddar and worchester sauce.

Skipped lunch as I was out and about with the hubby.

Dinner was a slimming world chicken tikka massala with boiled rice, completely syn free :-) The boys wanted snacks for a movie night so I treated them to some dried fruit and low fat chicken snacks, I had a hifi light and a bag of sweet chilli velvets (both totalling 7 syns)

So very happy with how my day panned out, and chuffed with myself for not giving into temptation when the kids wanted snacks... plus I kept them healthy too!!

Synful!

So today started off really well.

Breakfast was a chicken, mushroom and tomato omelette.

Lunch was an egg salad sandwich, mullerlight yogurt and an apple.

Dinner was takeaway with the bestie. We opted for chinese. Ordered a meal deal and I definitely went over my syns for the day. But I'm not worried about it. A few days with low or no syns and I'll be right back on track :-)

Quick eats!

So today has been a day full of quick meals!

Breakfast was 35g fruit n fibre with a splash of semi skimmed milk followed by a banana.

A birthday in the office meant cakes everywhere! I had a very small slice of strawberry and white chocolate cake (syn calculator says it's 13.5 syns per portion if cut into 6, we only had half that so I'll count 7 to be safe!)

Lunch was a chicken mugshot, 2 easy peelers and a pink grapefruit.

Dinner was a quick one as I was meeting our wedding photographer. Jacket Potato with Heinz BBQ Beans and tinned mushrooms... quite possibly the best jacket potato I have ever had in my life!! And completely syn free!

So another good day today, and I even managed cake without gorging on syns! Oh I do love Slimming World!

Body Attack!

Another splendid day on plan. I am on a high after last night's weigh in :-)

Breakfast this morning was cous cous with banana, kiwi and fat free natural yogurt.

Lunch was a BBQ Beef Mugshot with yellow pepper, shaved carrot and red onion; followed by the biggest, juiciest red apple I have ever seen and a blackcurrant cheesecake hifi light.

Came home from work and had another hifi light (to make up my HEB) and a bana before heading off the the gym for a Body Attack class. 60 minutes of running, jumping, stretching and toning was vwry hard work but luckily I have 2 friends who came with me and I proud to say all 3 of us completed the whole class! Trust me though, we will be sore tomorrow!

Dinner was pasta with tomatoes, peppers, onion, garlic, kidney beans, sweetcorn and tuna baked and topped with my HEA of cheese! It was devine (the bestie made it though so I can't take credit)

Now as I haven't had any syns today I am going to take my very sore behind up to bed with a hot chocolate (1.5 syns) and a bag of Sweet Chilli Velvet crisps (4 syns)... not a bad day at all!

Happy happy

So today was weigh in day.

Breakfast was 2 weetabix with semi skimmed milk followed by a pear.

Lunch was a cupcake baked by a woman at work and a Mullerlight yogurt (thought I'd have a treat!)

Got to group this evening and am very pleased to say that I lost 3lbs... and won slimmer of the week! :-)

Dinner was a low syn chinese with the hubby because, as you all know, I can't resist Tuesday treats!

So nothing at all to get in my way this week. My current weight loss is 5st 2.5lbs and I want to get as close to that 5.5st as possible. I am making it my mission to lose 2lbs on those scales next week!

Another guilt free day

Breakfast this morning was 2 slices of wholemeal toast with ham followed by some left over brocolli from last night's dinner (waste not want not and all that!)

Lunch was half a packet of Ainsley Harriott sundried tomato and garlic cous cous (1.5syns) an apple and 2 easy peelers.

Snacked on a pear mid afternoon.

Dinner was a chicken, bacon and mushroom omelette.

So all in all another good day :-) lets just hope it makes up for the weekend on the scales tomorrow!

Feeling in control :-)

So after my admission this morning, and my vow to stay on plan, I have stuck to it 100%

Woke up late so breakfast ended up just being 2 cups of black coffee.

Lunch was 2 slices of wholemeal toast with light Philidalphia and ham followed by an apple.

Dinner was a full roast dinner. Gammon (all fat removed) dry roast potatoes (which were the best ones I have ever managed) and lots of brocolli and carrots. No gravy so it was completely syn free :-)

I havd also had lots of fluids today so overall I have been completely in control. Now just to continue that tomorrow!

Now playing catch up...

No posts for a couple of days because of social bits and lots of shopping!

It hasn't been the best two days, I have eaten 2 out of 6 meals off plan. But I am back on it now. Not sure if it will be a loss this week, but I'm prepared for it.

So today I will be syn free and I will give the rest of the week my best shot!

Planning...

So today was another good day...

Breakfast was wholemeal toast with chilli Philidalphia followed by a pear.

Snacked on an apple mid morning.

Lunch was a salmon salad, with lots of added superfree... lettuce, tomatoes, red pepper, cucumber, celery and spring onions. Followed by a fat free yogurt and an easy peeler.

Had people to visit and places to see after work so I opted for a quick dinner. Pasta with chopped tomatoes, chilli powder and the rest of my Philidalphia allowance... for something I chucked together it was actually very yummy! For pud I had a bag of Aldi Cheese Curls at 3.5syns.

So again,  a good day all round. 3.5syns down for the week so I still have plenty to keep me going (101.5 to be exact!)

Got the girls round for dinner and drinks tomorrow evening, and thanks to some lovely people in group I hacmve a 'fakeaway' all planned out so I can still save syns... I'll let you all know what it is and how it goes down tomorrow!

Back in the habit

It's been almost two months since my last post. No excuses but to be fair it hasn't been easy maintaining my weight, getting married, honeymooning and moving house all at the same time!

So the last time I posted I weighed 13st 5.5lbs... I weighed in last week at 13st 10lbs so considering what I've been up to it wasn't bad at all! Lost 2lbs last night so I am well and truly back on track :-)

Breakfast today was 2 wholemeal toast with 35g light Philidalphia, a pink lady apple and a pear.

Snacked on an easy peeler mid morning.

Lunch was a Balchelors High-Veg Mushroom & Garlic Pasta n Sauce (stank the office out but it was worth it!) an easy peeler, pear and a weight watchers fat free yogurt.

Dinner was lean gammon steak with mushrooms, roasted tomatoes and SW chips. I also made a dip with my remaining HEA of light Philidalphia... 35g of philly, 2 very finely chopped spring onions and cherry tomatoes plus a sprinkle of mixed herbs. I must say, it was devine!

So no syns at all for me today, but that's because I am saving them for a pre-planned boozy night on Friday.

I have also set myself a Christmas target of losing another 15lbs. That will get me down to 12st 7lbs and will get me my 5.5 and 6 stone awards. I figure if I do that (and trust me, I aim to!) I have a fresh new year to lose my final 1.5st :-)

So that's it from me for today, I will post again tomorrow. And by the way, it's good to be back! :-D xxx
