Week 3 Day 5

22nd May 2015

Today was an awesome day for staying on track and for exercise. One thing I learnt about the SP week is that your HEB's should be taken from the S section, which only includes 1 Alpen light bar or cooked fruit... Now i'm not a fan of cereal bars and what are you meant to do with the cooked fruit if you cant have the oats as a HEB. So the plan is to follow the main meals within the day as SP while using my HEBs on whatever is on the list. In the HEA section there are no S or P foods but they tell you to have your HEA, so surely that means that your HEBs don't have to be SP. It might be better for weight loss if you suck to cook fruit and an alpen bar but it still works if you pick any HEA and HEB while making your meals all SP...

So my weight loss may not be as much as i thought it was going to be this week as i have been having bread as my HEB which isn't an S or a P. 

I did three hours and 40 minutes of exercise with a mix of cross trainer, yoga and the running app "couch to 5k" Ive recently moved to a new area and I totally got lost on my run and after the app had finished it took me an extra 20 Minutes to find my way home.

Breakfast.

1/2 HEB for one slice of toast and a layer of Quark P spread on top.

 

90 minutes on the cross trainer burning 692cals and then 30minutes for the Couch to 5K app burning 348cals.

Lunch.

 

After all that exercise i thought i better get some extra protein in me.

6 egg white P omlette mixed with mixed frozen veggies S.  A side of lettuce and spinach S with the second half of my HEB toast and a layer of Quark P.

1syn for the sauce.

 

1 - 40minutes on the cross trainer. 2- 59 minutes of yoga.

Dinner.

 

For dinner i made up a quick curry using : two passta S, Onions S, and normally i use coconut yoghurt but couldn't find any anywhere so opted for the lowest syned coconut milk. 12syns for the whole jar. Add in some spices - Chilli, Ginger, Garlic and curry powder. It made 4 portions so 3syns each.

*** note to self, don't use a whole can of coconut milk in a curry mix as it much watery than yoghurt and it will save you on syns next time***

To keep in line with the SP plan instead of rice/ noodles/ chips I had loads of mixed veggies and cabbage S. Ben was having cheesy Naan bread with his so i had half a plain naan bread for 8syns *Ouch*
To add some extra protein into the meal I had two Qourn chicken fillets P

 

For dessert, while Ben munched on Ben and Jerry's peanut butter ice cream i stayed strong anf had strawberries S with Quark mixed with sweetener P

Snacks through out the day.
