Hi, everyone!  Welcome to my blog where I talk about my ongoing Slimming World and associated health journeys.  I'm now in my target range and am aiming to keep this steady while following Mediterranean diet principles and the Slimming World structure.

After a bit of a crash last week and the resulting weight gain, I am being super sensible this week.  I don't mean I am going very low syn or anything like that - in fact, today is high syn; I'm trying to apply plain common sense to it all.

What I have eaten today:

Just fruit this morning, an apple and an orange - no photos.

Syn free.

Lunch was the last of the quiche.  I'll make it again at some point and will try freezing it next time.  Quiche four days in a row is a bit much really.  It was nice with coleslaw and a few air fried chips, perfect for a bleak and wet day  

Half an A and half a syn plus one syn for salad cream in the coleslaw.

Later on, the food noise started so I had some toast with marmite and cheese on top - one B and one A.

The creamy chicken (from Cook) was rather high in syns - thirteen and a half but under 500 calories so one of those situations where one has to be sensible and not worry about the clash between a reasonable calorie meal and SW syns.

Yes, it was nice but I can make something just as nice for fewer syns/calories and a lot less money.  One I probably won't get again.

Summary:

one and half a healthy extra As

one healthy extra B

fifteen syns

Right at the top!

Tomorrow's plans:

B:  pancakes with mushroom and tomato, egg on top

L:  stuffed pepper (from freezer), salad; fruit

D:  Cook's butter chicken with rice, side salad; fruit

(still working my way through those ready meals - and quite enjoying it too)

Exercise:   A Lindsey video  - no live classes this week.
