Sometimes I think I have cracked it then times like yesterday I think its really hard and the thought of doing it forever is a bit depressing!
I didn't have the energy or inclination to cook, plan etc etc and wanted to be able to just have a takeaway like so many people seem to without worrying which was the best option or how many syns etc without becoming fat and yucky! But because I didn't plan for today last night I now don't know whats for dinner etc tonight.
It can be so exhausting.....it is worth it isn't it???:cry:

Yes it is worth it. But I know exactly how you feel, I've had a craving for ice cream for a while, I don't want a tiny bite size piece I want to pile it in my dish & enjoy it without wandering about how many flippin syns are in it
Definately worth it, but I also think, can I possibly do it forever
I have lots of jars of sauces, and things in the freezer that I bought pre-SW and now that I am at Target, I am trying to fit one meal a week in that uses one, which is not pleasing me, to say the least, but food is far too expensive to throw away.
Last night, my son and I shared a steak and ale pie out of the freezer, and half of it was 33.5syns!....I was gutted, and felt terribly sick later, and had to take two alka seltzers!
My Son, said that I was feeling so bad, because I knew how much fat and syns were in it....could this be so?

Well despite my good intentions I had a 3lb gain this week!!! Was gutted as I'm only just in my target zone after my first week!! I know I wasn't perfect but I also wasn't that bad either - I didn't gain that much when I went in holiday all inclusive!! I'm hoping it might be a misread as I'd had rather a large bowl of pasta for lunch without thinking and weighed in 2 hours earlier than normal. Back on plan this week aside from the Buffett at a wedding last night x

Don't be disheartend its trial and error especially at first x
I've been doing better than I thought I would but am starting to creep up to the wrong end of target now!
Think I need to set myself some goals! I know the goal is to stay at target but its not like the goals and rewards as you go along losing etc
Any maintainers set themselves goals etc?

To be totally honest, now I got to 8'13, I am really struggling. Its like I have reached my goal, so now I want to eat EVERYTHING. It seems that all my willpower has just vanished. I tried really hard to get to where I am, but I cant seem to care anymore.

I have only been at target a week, but I was a bit lost for a few days. It was a bit like the first few days when starting SW and getting my head around EE. Gave myself a talking to and a reminder that SW is a healthy eating plan for life and made sure I went to group to keep me focussed and supported. I did learn a lesson though when I ate three choccy bars, I had such a terrible headache the next day, my body was telling me something!
