    What I Ate This Week On Slimming World - Week 3

    What I Ate This Week on Slimming World – Week 3  – My new addition to the blog, where I share my weekly food diary. This is so much better than just a basic Meal Plan because you will see the food exactly how it was made and enjoyed.

    I must admit I struggled on a few days this week, but managed to fight through and kept to plan apart from the couple of days where my syns were slightly over. Luckily, because I was under on a few days too, it evened out a little. I was pleasantly surprised with my weight loss this week. That's 5lbs off now in total in 3 weeks, which to some is not much, but it's a good weight loss for me, as my weight losses are pretty slow nowadays. Remember that this is your own personal journey, so as hard as it is, try not to compare your journey to other's, there are so many different factors to weight loss, and two people who weigh the same, are the same height and eat exactly the same things will not lose weight at the same rate. It's something I have to remind myself sometimes too.

    Logging my diaries here is definitely helping and I recommend it to anyone who is struggling with motivation. Whether it be on My Facebook group or through your own Instagram account. If you need some extra tips for keeping motivated. Check out my - 10 Tips to Increase Motivation on Slimming World


    Here is what I ate this What I Ate This Week on Slimming World – Week 2  starting Monday 21st May 2018:

    Monday

    What I Ate This Week on Slimming World – Week 3 – See what I ate for week two with my full food diary including my weight loss. This is so much better than just a basic Meal Plan because you will see the food exactly how it was made and enjoyed. | www.slimmingeats.com #slimmingworld #fooddiary #whatiatethisweek

    • Crispy Streaky Bacon, oven baked - (2.5 syns)
    • Whole Wheat Bread, toasted (HEb)
    • Egg cooked in cooking oil spray
    • Spinach (S)

    Lunch:

    • Sausage Chicken (2 syns)
    • Steamed Vegetables (S)
    • Butternut Squash Fries
    • Feta (part HEa)
    • Salsa (0.5 syns)

    The butternut squash fries I cooked in my air fryer with some cooking oil spray, with a pinch of paprika and sea salt. The sausage is from Costco in the USA, but there are many different varieties of low syn sausages out there.

    Dinner: 

    • Leftover  Guinness Beef Brisket (2 syns)
    • Baked Sweet Potato
    • Spring Onions (S)

    Recipe: Slow Cooker Guinness Beef Brisket

    For the sweet potato, I pierced and added to the microwave for 4 minutes to save time and then finished off in the oven. Once cooked, just slice in half, season with sea salt and black pepper and sprinkle with spring onions. There is lots of veg in the beef brisket dish, usually, I would add some additional speed foods, but I had plenty of speed foods at lunchtime.

    Snacks:

    • Yoghurt
    • Peach
    • Tea and Coffee
    • Gold bar (6 syns)

    Tuesday

    I was out most the day today as my youngest had some appointments to go to. Lunch was a grab and go of sushi, no nutritional info on the box, so will estimate the syns for that. Dinner was really quickly thrown together when I got in.
