What I ate today
One syn for the seeds
Scrambled eggs on toast with mushroom and tomatoes - very tasty and filling.
One healthy extra B and two syns for spray evoo
Roast chicken dinner. See my halo? That's because I made roasties and gave them all to Alex.
I took some of the skin off but I did have a bit, the skin that was stuck to the drumsticks. Ooops. And I have no idea of syns. However, I haven't had any As today so that's 240 calories not accounted for so I guess it will be OK.
Afters was a couple of easy peelers.
Two syns for gravy and one and a half for redcurrant jelly
Summary:
no healthy extra As
one healthy extra B
six and a half syns p0lus some chicken skin.

L: bean and tuna or salmon salad, bulgur wheat; fruit
D: cheesy chicken pasta bake, maybe salad; fruit
Exercise: Groove class and the walk to the hall and back again, weather permitting.
The Extra Bit
The second strategy in the SW mag article on having a magical Christmas is entitled . . .
Ask for help
It talks about asking for advice, tips and ideas from your SW group at the meeting and, yes, if you have a group and stay for Image Therapy, that can be very helpful.
However, I would say it is more to do with getting help from those who will be with you over the festive season.
I have Beth and Alex round mine on Christmas Day and we have already talked about how we are going to approach the whole food thing. They both know how important it is for me to stay healthy and are so very supportive.

I'm also looking for help on Social Media - 'asking' Google for recipes, 'asking' YouTube for videos and clips.
And on Facebook, there's a wealth of support but I will mention just two (because I halp admin in them)

The first is 'Slimming on a Shoestring' and the second is the 'Slim Win' group I talk about quite a lot.
Where do you go when you need help with this whole healthy eating lark? Not just for Christmas but at any time? xx
I really enjoy Inage therapy and think it’s such a shame that people just weigh and go. I’ve made friends, met lots of new acquaintances, pick up tips and enjoy sharing my own. Curiously, that post-weigh cup of coffee is one of the best each week ; it sort of heralds the start of a new beginning each week.
ReplyDeleteI agree - it is the social side of this whole weight loss support thing and, despite not always hearing everything, I really enjoy the discussions and chatter and I've had a lot of support that way over the years. I also love being on the social team and doing the weighing as I get to have a short chat to everyone - it's really nice.
DeleteAs group is Friday morning, I don't have anything until I've been weighed and, yes, that first mug of coffee is the best thing ever.
If one doesn't stay, it's an awfully expensive way to get weighed, I think (unless at target). xx
Or even Image therapy!
