So I'm new to the forum and have found these food diaries great for recipes and guidelines so thought I would start one of my own! I welcome any advice or comments on how to mix things up abit! :D

So today was a GREEN DAY, and I was hungry lol

Breakfast: 2 weetabix (HeB), with skimmed milk (HeA)

Lunch: 2 quorn sausages and a tin of heinz spaghetti, and a cup of coffee

Dinner: stir fry veg with soy sauce and a few spices and some asda fresh egg noodles which I syned as i've just discovered the fresh ones have a syn value

Snacks: Muillerlight poured over a chopped up banana and apple

also about to go and do one of davina mccalls 30 minute workouts :)

oh that was another question i had to ask, is it essential to have all your healthy extras each day? and is it 1 HeA and 2 HeB's? just find it a bit confusing sometimes
 
Another hungry day so decided to go GREEN

Breakfast : 2 quorn sausages & one egg scrambled, tsp of red sauce (1/2 syn) class of water

Lunch: toastie made with 2 light laughing cows (HeA), 2 slices of kingsmill wholemeal bread (HeB x2), mushrooms and onions. Had a small bowl of home made vegetable soup, stock was made from water and one knor stock cube which i added barley and lentils to, is this syn free???!? i think i read that barley and lentils boiled were syn free? and also that knor stock cubes were now syn free


Had a late large lunch so probably will not have dinner as I'm heading to a house warming and plan on having a few morgans spiced and diet coke
anyone know the syn value for morgans spiced or sailor jerry rum??
 
yeah its pretty important to get your A's and B's in :)
on red and green days you must have two B's but you can have either 1 or 2 A's. on extra easy days you must have 1 A and 1 B xx
 
well yesterday was going so so well

breakfast: 2 nimble bread (HeB) & banana

Lunch: chicken breast (HeB) with wholegrain mustard (1 syn) on it and some baby tomamatoes cut on top and all cooked under the girl, with one small baked potato and a some garden peas

dinner : syn free mushroom soup, and a muillerlight

then my lovely boyfriend came up with a takeaway pizza and i had to have 3 slices

im ashamed! its the time of the month where i get ultra hungry but still no excuse
hopefully today will be better

on a better note... i went shopping on saturday for a wedding outfit and realised i've dropped a whole dress size!!!!
