Beth's food diary aka mission 'get gorgeous' ;)

You know the way to his heart lol x

What's on the menu today?

Having a few people over tonight so gonna make a big lot of chilli and fajita stuff.. Keeping the food good because I will be drinking nothing exciting though.. X

 

[Befanwi]

Well this weekend I got drunk once (on wine!) tipsy once (on gin and slimline) and ate chilli with normal mince, crisps, a sandwich from pret, a toastie, TGI's and a chippy tea.. So as you can see; not a successful weekend.. Why can't I do it?!

Next weekend I'm in work so I should be good - but it's mine and Max's anniversary on Thursday so we're going to go out for dinner.. Gonna stay away from the wine (he will be driving anyways) but eat what I want.. But that's on WI day so I'll estimate syns and cut back..

Bleurgh, can't believe how stupid I am and unfocused and ridiculously weak-willed: really winding myself up now!

Aah, come on chica, don't give yourself a hard time. You're not the only one finding it hard at the mo. I'm looking at September as a fresh start - wanna join me?

Yeah I do. I'm going to be golden and syn free today.. then going out with a friend tomorrow - harvester chicken, loads of salad, baked potato.. And some gin and slimline/vodka diet coke if harvester don't have slimline..

Then good/syn free on Wednesday then dinner on Thursday I'll have whatever I want.. But no alcohol (hopefully!)

I just can't get my head in the game - as soon as weekend comes around I'm looking for the next takeaway or cake or meal out.. It's ridiculous that my weekends revolve so heavily around food/drink.. I've forgotten how to be sociable without it.

Don't beat yourself up about your Doritos - you're doing amazingly! We can and WILL do this! X

After tonight I really need to reign it in! I can't eat out 3 times a week and expect to lose weight! It just doesn't happen!!
And no more wine for me! At least this meal is at the very start of the week so I should be able to pull it back
