Well, I have done what I said I would ... I am keeping track of everything that passes my lips religiously. Slimming world now have a Food Diary on their members website in which you can store all of your eatings. It has a built in syn search and lists of healthy extras so it's SUPER easy to keep track and also you can't cheat and pretend that just because the X that you ate was only a small one it would be one or two less syns than it says in the book (one of my favourite tricks).
I can see why I haven't lost any weight since I stopped writing things down ... It is very easy to go over syns when you are guestimating because syns are so much higher than the weight watchers points which are ingrained on my brain (they are usually about double which sounds a lot but don't forget how much food is free). It's taking me a couple of days to adjust back on to doing the diet actually. I didn't realise how far off track I had gone. I'm back on track though now and feeling good about it. As long as I keep writing it down!!!
So it's spinach and potato curry with rice for tea tonight ... it's a Green Day. I had beans on wholemeal toast for breakfast and I'm having fruit for lunch and a treatsize crunchie (4 syns) for a treat with a cuppa this afternoon. I haven't had a HEa choice yet as I didn't have my usual weetabix and therefore no milk. I might have an options hot chocolate (2 syns) made with milk tonight to make sure I have my calcium intake or I could use the milk to make up a no added sugar Angel Delight (3 syns for 1/4 packet or 5.5 for 1/2). Decisions, decisions.
