Dalyan – 3rd & 4th April

I had Yorkshire tea and a few strawberries for breakfast on Monday 3rd April. I started my second week of work at 9am and worked until 6pm, with an hour for lunch. At lunch time I had a vegetarian picnic style one, again, to save time and I snacked on a couple of bananas.
When I finished work, I met up with Jamie for a quick dog walk and then came back to make my dinner. I decided today was going to be a zero alcohol and zero meat day so I made garlic mushrooms with onion, leeks and quark with roasted pumpkin and sweet potato. I only had 12 syns today because I snaffled some chocolate but it did mean I was already at 219 syns for the week – weigh in was not going to be a good one, on Wednesday.

Tuesday 4th April was another day of work and I was enjoying it. I just had fruit for breakfast as I needed to be logged on to the laptop by 9am. The lira had gone up to 24.03 to the pound now so was very high. While working, I made myself sip lots of cucumber infused water in an effort to detox a bit before tomorrow’s weigh-in. I had a turkey, lettuce, spring onion, green pepper and cheese wholemeal wrap for lunch which was surprisingly filling. Our pool and garden maintenance company, Elite, had started to drain the filthy pool and the green slimy water was slowly disappearing. In the afternoon a massive rain storm came and I was expecting loss of power, but I was fine. After work, I made a simple noodle dish with garlic, courgettes and mushrooms. I was doing so well to resist chocolate or booze but fell at the final hurdle as I settled down to watch a bit of Netflix. This week I’d had 239 syns (89 were on alcohol), 4 meat free days, 4 alcohol free days and 7 days of exercise. I had a feeling that I was going to have put weight on this week, though.
