Wow you will definatley have to put how ur peppercorn sauce came out I love that! Hi btw! You r doing really well with ur first week, Ive been reading ur diary and you've been so good!

I know this is a bit cheeky but Im really struggling! Did you post this diary as a blog or as a thread? I cant work out how to do one and after seeing you and Liliferjade wrinting your blogs I thought it may hep me stay focused too! x x

Hi!

Thanks for reading, and thanks again- I feel really focused with it (hopefully this motivation stays :giggle: ). I've tried to be good so fingers crossed it will show on the scales tomorrow.

I will do, I found the syn free peppercorn sauce recipe here on Minimins. If it's as yummy as it I will give you the link

It's not cheeky at all, these boards were made for helping each other out I posted this as a new thread, it is really good actually for keeping on track! It has definitely helped me focus and get advice from other people.

I look forward to reading your diary once you set it up xx

I was up early this morning to do the 30 day shred , had weigh in just before though. I couldn't sleep last night, I think it was nervous excitement. I didn't weigh myself all week (which is good going as I usually weigh 3 times a day) so couldn't wait to see how my first week had gone:character00115:...

Anyway, my first week is...... a 7.5lb loss!!

I can't believe it, especially after all of the delicious food I have had this week- including chocolate and a night at the pub(within syns though).

Hope you all have a great start to the week. Will post later

xx

Sorry this is a late first post of the day for me.

Had a very packed but fun filled day. It's really starting to annoy me that my lectures fall around lunch time on Monday and Tuesday as I feel I don't have a proper lunch. I would take something in to uni but I have no gap so wouldn't have time to eat it, grrr!

Tonight was a catch up with a few of the girls, we ended up going to a pub (I stuck to diet coke) and Nando's. I used a flexi-meal tonight but slipped up by not asking them for no dressing on my salad, but I really enjoyed it and have had no other syns for the day except for my Nando's tea so hopefully I won't have done too much damage.

I came in and watched The Biggest Loser UK, and as my tea had settled down I got stuck in to day 10 level 2 of the 30 Day Shred. I felt pretty motivated after seeing the massive losses on the programme tonight.

I'm just about to read through my lesson plan and count the sweets for the children at my volunteering session tomorrow. I'm not going to pinch a single one as my tea was my flexi/treat for the week. Then bed for me.

I'm going home for a few days tomorrow which I am really excited about, my parents are really supporting me on Slimming World and have said we can get some SW friendly food in for teas (I will probably end up cooking for everyone anyway ha.. may have one E.E day while I'm at home too).

I will keep my diary updated xx

Today's plan...

Original

B: Porridge(heB1), milk (heA1) and banana
L: 1xAlpen (heB2), muller, nectarine and satsumas
D: Flexi-meal Nando's Mediterranean Salad with Chicken (feta was heA2), fat free frozen yoghurt (split 3 ways)

Snacks: 1xAlpen (remaining heB2)

Total Syns: Nando's flexi

I'm having a lovely time at home so far. I went food shopping with my Dad this afternoon to get some SW friendly food in and have planned teas for the next few days.

My Mum made a lovely roast today for tea, bless her. I had planned on having an Extra Easy day but Mum forgot about frylight roasties and used oil...so I had to miss out. I didn't mind though, it was so lovely not cooking for a change As a result, I switched to a red day and plan to have my Alpen lights this evening watching Super League's Super Men (the joys of Sky!).

I did my 30 Day Shred (D2L2)this morning and a bit of another DVD. Had a lovely walk with Amber (our crazy dog) after lunch and made the most of the sunshine too :chores016:. It's great getting outdoors, especially when the weather takes a turn for the better.

My food diary for the day is:

Original

B: Scrambled egg on toast (heB1), strawberries.
L: Ham Salad
D: Chicken, carrots, sprouts, green beans and gravy (3 syns)

Snacks: mullerlight, kiwi, Options (2 syns), milk (heA), Alpen light (heB2)

I hope the weather is as beautiful tomorrow as it was today...I've got lots of reading to do, and plan to chill in the garden with my books.
