My First Food Diary - Newbie so feel free to correct me!!

Hi

Im new to WW so thought i would do a food diary then i can look back and be inspired!

I am a childrens nurse and im wanting to lose about 7st and retrain my eating habits along the way!

Im new to the whole points tracking thing so feel free to correct my points values if i get them wrong!

Im currently 17st 11lb so im on 28 points a day! but im trying to keep a few just in case i want a drink at the weekend or something comes along unexpected ive got some free points!

So today ive had the following

Bran Flakes 30g - 2.5
Skimmed milk 1/4 pint - 0.5
Banana - 1.5

WW Yoghurt - 1
4xCrispbreads - 1
Low fat Chives cottage cheese - 1.5

Chick, Tom n Basil WW meal - 3.5
Strawberry, Kiwi & Grapes - 2.5

Mush,broccoli & wedges WW meal - 4.5
Uncle bens wholegrain rice - 1/2 pack - 3
Steam Veg - 0

ww yoghurt - 1

Total - 23

I am weighing things out precisely before i start work as i work 13 hour shifts so i need to be prepared haha works in theory!
I also find the WW meals pretty good as i can eat them quickly when i dont have much time! I know its not ideal to eat ready meals but they are working for me!

let me know if my points are right for today! will update each day my weigh in day will be a monday.

Best of luck chick, you look lovely in you picture, is that you before?

Hi Katie,
