The food in detail.

Today I wanted to get bang on track and kick off the week with a slimming world extra easy SP week to boost the weight loss. This plan allows you to eat all the S (super) and P (protein) foods you want with the added extra of one HE-A (healthy eating options a, which is things like your cheese and milk) and two HE- B (healthy eating options b, which are things like bread, cereals and soups) I prepared all my foods thinking I was right on track and when I came to my dinner in work I noticed my curry had the dreaded sweet potato which is not a super food. Sigh. Another through back was when I went to get my coffee I asked for a small (8syns) and they only had medium cups left so that turned into a whopping 12syns on coffee. However you are allowed 15 syns a day and my ending total is 14syns, and the sweet potato is a free food in slimming world and the welcome pack book stated that it is no biggie if you do have a free food instead of super free food all it will do is slow down the weight loss. 

So here are the slimming world facts and calorie intake in depth below.

Breakfast

Muller light vanilla yoghurt, 99cals and free on slimming world (SW) 

Tea, free on slimming world  

Unsweetened almond milk in my tea is 26cals for 100ml and counts as a HE-A

Pre work snack 

2 Morrison value weetabix, 134cals and counted as HE-B

Muller light vanilla yoghurt, 99cals and free on SW

200g strawberries, 60cals and a super food on SW

These were mixed all together and left in the fridge over night (sort of like overnight oats) 

Lunch in work

Two slices of Morrisons wholemeal bread, 172cals and counted towards HE-B 2 

Princes tuna in spring water, 118cals and a free protein on SW

Morrisons own Mayo light 1 tbsp 41cals and 2syns. 

This was mixed into the Mayo with a sprinkle of vinegar.

Iceberg lettuce, 5cals and free on SW.

Dinner in work

Modified version of slimming world chicken curry as one, I'm a veggie (but eat fish) and two I didn't have some of the ingredients. (I'll post a recipe next time I make it) I'm unaware of the calories on this as I made it a few days before and didn't track my ingredients. However it is free on SW and when using my fitnesspal app to search "slimming world sweet potatoe curry" it came up as 250cals so that is what I am using for this at the moment.

200g frozen mixed veg, 150cals and all super foods on SW

Drinks

One glass of mango and orange sugar free squash and four glasses of Vimto no added sugar squash in work. Starbucks coffee frap with soya milk medium, 222cals and 12syns on SW

Food stats.

HE- A ✔️

HE-B ✔️✔️

Syns = 14 out of 15

Off track with sweet potato in my curry on what was meant to be an EESP day.

Total calories 1376cals (you don't actually have to calorie count on slimming world but I like to to see how much I'm eating but I try not to let the number effect what I eat as that is not how slimming world works.)

I also weighted and measured myself before work today so hopefully I will get those figures up in a post tomorrow to get the tracking process started.
