Hi, so I joined swimming world on Friday but on Saturday night, I went out and drank too much and went over my daily syn limit of 15 by a lot. As a result, I've had to have no syns for four days to make up the amount I went over. But now I'm really scared in case I've put on weight or stayed the same, especially since i've been reading all of these stories of people losing 1lb-8lb in their first week!
Friday:
Breakfast - 250ml semi skimmed milk and porridge with blueberries and raspberries
Snack: Apple and raisins (6 sysns)
Lunch: Smoked salmon, lettuce, cucumber, tomato, sweetcorn salad (All free foods)
Snack: Grapes and prawn cocktails crisps (6.5 syns)
Dinner: Salmon (fry light) and broccoli and rice
So on Friday I had a total of 12 and a half syns.
Saturday:
Breakfast: 2 scrambled eggs with ham and mozzarella cheese on a slice of wholemeal bread
Snack: Apple
Lunch: Same salad as Friday
Snack: 2 Mini twirl bar (18 syns) and prawn cocktail crisps (6.5 syns)
Dinner: Vegetable curry with rice.
However, then I consumed 35 syns of alcohol. Saturday was a really bad day.
Sunday:
Breakfast: 2 boiled eggs
Snack: Apple
Lunch: Same salad as before
Dinner: Salmon and rice
So I didn't syn on Sunday
Monday:
Breakfast: porridge with blueberries and raspberries
Snack: Two apples
Lunch: Vegetable soup and a free food salad.
Dinner: Spaghetti bolognese using free mince and pasta.
So as you can see, I had a really syn high day on Saturday and I'm trying not to go over my weekly syn of 105, so i'm having not to syn for the rest of the week as a result. I'm aiming to go jogging every other day for half an hour but i'm really worried that i'm going to have put on weight on my weigh in on Thursday. Has anybody got any tips for me to reduce the amount I syn + maximise the amount of weight i lose?
I'm trying really hard from now on, well since Sunday, and I know I messed up on Saturday, but i'll be so gutted if i've put on weight! My aim weight loss is 3 stones and I'm hoping to have lost a stone by June.
Thank you
