Hi, everyone!  Welcome to my blog where I talk about my ongoing Slimming World and associated health journeys.  At present, I am working to reduce my 'bad' cholesterol through diet, particularly using the Mediterranean way of eating.

As expected, I had a gain this morning but, phew, it wasn't nearly as bad as I had thought.  One and a half pounds on, better than it could have been, for sure.

So on we go!

What I have eaten today.

A nice, simple breakfast of yogurt, strawberries, blueberries and a few grapes.

Syn free

The soup I didn't have yesterday for lunch with a cheesy chicken and chutney toastie.

One healthy extra B, one healthy extra A, one and a half syns for the toastie and two syns for evoo used in making the soup.

Later on, I had an apple.  

Dinner was so nice, like a fakeaway.  The chips and the salad were free, the burger was one and a half syns (for a bit of cheese) plus one syn for chutney and half for some mayo super-light.

So good.

Summary:

one healthy extra A

two healthy extra B

(these are the wrong way round but not to worry!)

six and a half syns

Tomorrow's meal plans:

B:  sourdough discard pancakes with fruit and yogurt

L:  crustless quiche with salad; fruit

D:  chicken and mushroom carbonara, broccoli; fruit

Exercise:  probably nothing!
