Slimming World - Day One

So - in the past, I've tried it all.

Weight Watchers (or, as it is now beautifully rebranded, WW), MyFitnessPal, just "being healthy" and although I am usually successful on the face of it, I always seem to fall back into old habits soon after hitting my target.

I'm in quite a busy job (I'll tell you more about that maybe one day) and so I don't really feel that I have the time to go to the meetings so when I realised you could do an online plan with Slimming World, I decided to give it a go. Why am I here then? Well - I need to be accountable to somebody, even if it's only myself and I figured that having a little space on the internet to post this would be a good idea.

If I'm successful, maybe this will help somebody one day? If I'm not... maybe that will help somebody too as you'll be able to learn from my mistakes.

So - I've decided. Each day, even if it's just a little post, I'll log on and tell you what I've had to eat that day. Maybe I'll even tell you a little bit about the day, if you're interested, and how this impacted upon what I ate. Once a week, I'll give you the STATs. and at some point, I'll even post  the occasional picture!

So - what are the STATs today on day one?

STATs.... gulp....

Weight - 16 stones and 2 pounds.

Food:

Breakfast -4.5 syns plus one of my Healthy
Weetos and semi-skimmed milk
(I know.. I know... it was day one and we went food shopping yesterday, stupidly before I decided to wake up this morning and sign up for slimming world...)

Lunch - egg fritata/ omelette/ scrambled egg sort of thing... with onions, tomatoes, peppers and sweetcorn - Free

It was supposed to be an omelette but today was the first day I tried making one without oil.. and let's just say it was a disaster... but it tasted ok, whatever it was.

Dinner

Stir-fry vegetables (free) with egg noodles (4.5 syns) and Katsu curry sauce (9 syns)

Again - I've learned my lesson. I won't be buying those types of curry sauces any more as that is far too many syns for basically a flavour!

In-betweens

apple, nectarine and grapes - all free
Muller light yoghurt - 0.5syns.
Black coffee - free

So - I'll catch up with you again tomorrow and let you know how it goes!

Thanks and see you around!
