#onplanOctober

[Mittens92]

Hi all! So on Instagram a lady mentioned about making October all about staying on plan for the whole month! This will be difficult but I am so on it! This is a challenge I am excited to be taking! anyone with me?

Me!
I have lost 4 stone but past few weeks I have been pretty lax and just maintained. Tonight I ate a huge muffin 🙈
So I’m on it!

Me! I’ve also lost 4st but I’ve struggled since getting back from holiday 3 weeks ago.
Back to basics for me and writing everything down.

Yes I’d stopped weighing and measuring food so definitely need to get back to basics! Did a big online food order today so will get back on it.

No way, it's my birthday in Oct!

Got my wedding anniversary and DS’s birthday as well as DH having time off. I’ve been in plan most of the year bar my holiday and a few odd days.

Yes! I'm up for it!!

I'm up for it! Lost 3 stone on sw but I've become a bit complacent and did a kick up the bum

Menu for today-

B-banana,cherries,ff Greek yogurt, flaked almond(half heb) agave syrup(1)
L-ham salad, leek and potato soup and Melba toast (2)
D-seafood spaghetti with chilli and tomato sauce
S-hifi and a cup of tea (usually at 4pm!)

I'm in!

Well from tomorrow

Hi everyone! So glad that majority of you are in it with me 👍 I have been off track as well - going over my syns without realising, not measuring anything, using too much of my hexA etc! Start of a new month :

Today I had a coffee with sweetener and my measured milk (350ml of skimmed milk measured in a beaker for today), 45g bran flakes with milk as well and a peach. Lunch was jacket potato with tuna and mayo and butter (1.5 syn for the lot), and a satsuma. For dinner I am making a roast dinner using 2 tsp gravy granules for 2 syn with plenty of speedy veg, dessert - lemon drizzle fibre one bar xx

So today was ok, but I need to eat more speed foods tomorrow, and organise my arse so I don't rely on the office canteen for lunch.

B- scrambled eggs and spinach.

L - canteen mulligatawny soup (counting it as 5 syns)

D- WW wrap (hexb) as a pizza base- with passata, chicken sausage, turkey bacon, spring onions, tiny peppers and cheese (hexa)

I’ve been pretty good today
Breakfast: muller light with a banana (0syns)
Lunch: lentil and bacon soup, apple and plum (0ayns)
Dinner: homemade chicken dhansak, broccoli and rice (0syns)
Snack: caramel waffle (9syns)
I’ve used pretty much all my milk (HEA) in coffee and not had my HEB yet but I’m not hungry so I might just miss it today.

The caramel waffle was a moment of weakness but so worth it!

@PantPlot that pizza wrap looks so delicious!!! 👍😍

I have been on plan so far so good! Went uni today the canteen was riddled with panini, warm muffins, burgers, chips ... but I walked out and just had my satsuma I had in my bag! Stayed strong.

Today I had a highlight chocolate sachet with 40g porridge for breakfast topped with strawberries, a fibre one bar, a malteaser snack, savoury rice from Aldi and SW friendly ocean pie I had frozen ages ago with spring greens. Ending today on 13.5 syns. Not THAT much speed food but my biggest downfall are syns so I am glad I stayed below 15. xx

@ChesterFuckingDraws well done!! Thats great. If I have nothing to use for my HexB I usually just have a couple of alpen light bars at night cos Thats when I usually tend to snack xx

Hows everyone getting on with the #onplanOctober challenge so far? Xx

Pantplot that pizza looks amazing.

I'm doing ok but mainly because I've had a tummy bug for last couple of days which means I've not eaten much. I've felt like rubbish but I suppose every cloud...!

I'm up for this. Need a good week this week as am away next week and it will be a week of pub lunches in the countryside - not easy!! Pubs are the worst 😫

Anyway today I have eaten a ton but technically all on plan. I know I don't lose with too many days like this so will go back to SP tomorrow.

B: eggs, mushrooms, homemade bread, baked beans
L: Spanish Tortilla with spinach, courgettes & broccoli
D: Vegan spag bol with grana padano
S: Apple, raspberries, strawberries, blackberries
Syns: 9 (bread and olive oil)

@Giraffefreckles love pub meals! Fayre and Square is one of my biggest downfalls 🤦‍♂️. Today has been good! This morn I had two slices of toast (one was HexB and I had another for 5 syn), 2 eggs and light butter at 2 syn. Lunch was SlimFree chicken saag from Aldi with rice (apparently syn free but waiting for confirmation from SW head office), and for dinner I don't think I will have much - maybe a mugshot with cooked chicken breast slices x

@buttwingsham oh no I hope you feel better soon Hun x

@Mittens92 - so do I - that's the problem!

Hi all

Get well soon buttwings. Think of the scales though!

I love pub grub too, especially when washed down with several large dry whites...

Anyway, today was:

B- scrambled eggs, turkey rasher. Mango, spinach and almond milk smoothie

L- king prawns and an apple.

D- chicken thighs, roast potatoes, fennel, onions, cabbage and syn free gravy.

Have had umpteen bits o' fruit and will have an almond milk cocoa at bedtime.

Not so pretty tonight but tasted good

Hope no one minds me posting food pics, I'm sad like that

@PantPlot please definitely post food pics! Gives us ideas and that makes me sooooo starving hungry! Just had quavers so that takes me to 12.5 syns. I haven't had my healthy extra A yet so I might do a highlight choc sachet with milk so that will be me ending on 14.5 syns x

Morning

Breakfast- Boiled eggs and turkey rasher soldiers.

You'll note a distinct lack of speed oops.

Morning @PantPlot . That is such a good idea!! Saves using your hexB too!! I haven't hardly had any speed this week but speed has been within my food lol yesterday I had cajun chicken and 1/2 hexA cheese in a Wholemeal bun, lunch was cheese and broccoli pasta with cheese curls a rice bar and an apple, mid afternoon an orange and dinner was nacho feast with seasoned wedges and my other 1/2 HexA x

I'm on plan but putting on weight! I might have to revert to lowcarb 😫
