What I Ate – 19.08.16

Hi guys,

A late what I ate in a day due to my crazy schedule – apologies!

Breakfast was some dry curiously cinnamon cereal (trying to clear out the cupboards a bit!) with a ham sandwich.

Lunch was half of this stewed aubergine dish and white rice (shared it with my sister) and a clementine.

Sorry for the dodgy lighting! Snack was this ham salad from Asda and a flat peach (not pictured) as I was having dinner made by my ex and he wasn’t home until quite late.

Dinner was nachos with jalapeños, salsa and cheese. I ate about a quarter of this and was absolutely stuffed!

So overall, not really a fantastic day. Will definitely strive to do better in my next What I Ate post! I’m really struggling to find a balance of healthy eating and working 70-80 work weeks at the moment. If you have any tips, please leave them below!

Until next time.. x

Until next time.. x

Yeah, so I think I went a little overboard in the last few days – particularly on Saturday. I did extra exercise and I think that contributed to me eating like a horse. Looking back it seems a bit ridiculous! Plus I ate four lots of pizza (1 healthified, the others not) which seems a bit much. I’ll see how I do during weigh in as looking at what I ate, makes me think I will have probably have gained!

EDIT: Lost 2lb this week. Although I think maybe I was lucky – I’m going to lay off the pizza this week!

Until next time.. x

Fri – Mon Round Up (2nd – 5th Jan)

Posted in Food Diary & Photos by YT

Hi guys,

Just a quick round up of my food for you guys. I’ve found it a little bit hard to jump back on the wagon, despite wanting to desperately! Anyone else find that after indulging over Christmas, it’s hard to be really disciplined with yourself again? It’s crazy. Especially as I wanted to try the new EE SP plan so hardly any carbs on top of that was a bit like torture the first couple of days. However, I am back on the wagon now. Sunday seemed to be a little turning point and I’ve made sure I’m really organised with my food for this week so my head is most definitely in the game!

Friday

Breakfast was a yummy mushroom (s) and spinach (s) omelet (p) with 15g vintage cheddar (half HEA) – yum.

Lunch was carrot (s) and coriander soup with a wholemeal roll (HEB) with 30g Phili light (half HEA) and ham with strawberry infused water and 2 clementines (s)

Snack: Ham (p) and cucumber (s) in a wholemeal roll (HEB) with light salad cream (3 syns) with extra cucumber (s) and 25g wasabi peas (4.5 syns)

Dinner: ‘blackened’ steak with the fat removed (p) with swede (s) and carrot (s) mash with sprouts (s) and bacon (p)

Total syns: 7.5

Saturday

Breakfast: two fried eggs (p) with two slices of bacon (p) with mushrooms (s) and spinach (s)

Lunch: soy salmon (p) with carrot (s) and swede (s) mash with celery sticks (s) and a clementine (s) with strawberry and cucumber infused water

Snack: ham (p) and cucumber (s) parcels with light salad cream (3 syns) and clementine (s) with strawberries (s) and 25g wasabi peas (4.5 syns)

Dinner: “Pizza” – 2 wholemeal rolls (HEB x2) with 50g mozzarella (HEA), tomato puree, ham (p), green beans (s), mushrooms (s), 8 olives (1.5 syns) and carrot chips (s)

Total syns – 9

Sunday

Snack: 24g salt and vinegar hula hoops (6 syns) – was disappointed with the flavour. Anyone else think they just taste of potato?

Dinner: soy salmon (p) with roast carrots (s), broccoli (s), green beans (s) and peas (p)

Snack: 2 clementines (s) and half a bag of jelly tots (4 syns)

Total syns – 10

Monday

Breakfast: spinach (s) with 3 eggs scrambled (p) with 2 slices of 400g wholemeal toast (HEB)

Lunch: chicken (p) pieces with Ainsley Harriot Spice Sensation Couscous (1.5 syns) with broccoli (s), green beans (s), cherry tomatoes (s) and peas (p). 2 boiled eggs (p) and a cup of tea with a splash of milk (0.5 syn). Not sure if my couscous was off but it tasted very strange so ended up just eating the chicken and veg.

Snack: two boiled eggs (p) with celery sticks (s) and 2 tbsp jalapeno houmous (5 syns) with strawberry & cucumber infused water

Snack: 2 clementines (s) and 2 boiled eggs (p)

Dinner: beef (p) stew with carrots (s), onions (s), celery (s) and mushrooms (s) with pickled beetroot (s) and pickled cabbage (s) with sweetheart cabbage (s), baby corn (s) and mangetout (s) with half pack of jelly tots (3.5)

Total syns – 11.5

That’s all for now guys. Weigh in tomorrow so hopefully I’ll have lost at least some of that Christmas weight!

Until next time.. x

My mason jar filled & ready to go!

Trying to make sure I’m drinking enough water. Got this cute mason jar and metal straw over Christmas and I’ve filled it with cucumber and strawberries to give it a bit of flavour. It worked well yesterday so I’m hoping to manage another 2L today and to get over the headache!

Hope you have a great day guys! 🙂

Thurs – Sun Round Up (11th-14th Dec)

Posted in Food Diary & Photos by YT

Hi guys,

Just a quick round up session. I’ve been pretty busy with fitting Christmas meals out with my exam revision and work (yes, I’m to blame for poor planning and not wanting to punk out!). I’ll have a shopping haul soon as I went on Saturday but not yet had chance to do a write up yet – it’ll be soon, promise!

Thursday

Breakfast – a few chicken and mushroom dumplings

Lunch – tomato speed soup (ss) with beetroot (s) and mozzarella (HEA) and wholemeal toast croutons (HEB)

Dinner: bacon with roast carrots (s), potatoes, peas (ss) and corn

Superspeed – 2, speed – 2

Total syns: about 15 for the dumplings?

Friday

Breakfast: bacon and eggs on 400g wholemeal toast (HEB) with ketchup (3 syns)

Lunch: chicken stew (s) with carrots (s), celery (s), mushrooms (s), broccoli (s), onions (s)

Snacks: rainbow swiss roll (10 syns?)

Dinner: burger in a bowl with a potato waffle and 3 dairylea light slices (HEA) with chinese cabbage (s), tomatoes (s), cucumber (s), onions (s) – 10 syns

Superspeed – 0, speed – 10

Total syns: 23

Saturday

Breakfast: soy salmon with scrambled eggs

Lunch: burger in a bowl – 5 syns with chinese cabbage (s), tomatoes (s), cucumber (s), onions (s)

Snacks: rainbow swiss roll (10 syns) with strawberries (ss) and cherries (s)

Dinner: SW chilli dog on a not-so-SW half cheese stick with onion dip (20 syns?). Didn’t end up eating the coleslaw.

Superspeed – 1, speed – 5

Sunday

Breakfast: Christmas lunch with my Mum and sisters – had a buttered brown roll, parsnip soup, a slice of turkey and roast pork with all the trimmings, about a third of the sticky toffee pudding (too sickly sweet) and half the mini mince pie and a cup of tea

Late lunch: half a cheese stick with bacon and egg and 3 syns of ketchup.

Dinner: friend’s Christmas do, had a fanta (stuck to diet coke after the one) with olives and half a chicken with half the coleslaw and the corn on the cob

Syns: WAY TOO MANY!

So that’s how the last few days have gone. I seem to have developed a sweet tooth which is unlike me and I’m going to try and get rid of it! Weigh in on Wednesday is going to be a bit of a nightmare I think as my Mum needs me to drive her to Malton in the evening so she’s decided on a girly dinner. As it wasn’t planned, I’m going to make sure that my choices are going to be more SW-friendly. I don’t think I can take any more hits this week. All this Christmas malarkey has worn what was left of my self control extremely thin. Definitely need to get this back!!

Until next time.. x
