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

[GothGoddess]

Aha, I'd be like that if I worked there.. I love food shopping! (suppose that comes from being food obsessed!) but boyfriend hates it with a passion.. Usually find him sulking in the DVD section.. But he's the driver so we have to run out of food almost before I can convince him to go.. Luckily there is a greengrocer/butcher on my street.. Unluckily it's a small village so it's extortionate..
Feel like I'm doing ok, but much more bloated than I have been on CC - maybe I'm eating a bit too much?

Have a good day Glad you got some sleep! X

You are probably eating more stuff that ferment in your gut than too much, try some Peppermint tea to reduce the bloated feeling... xx

 

[Befanwi]

It's rubbish because when I'm on CC I eat ready meals, packet stuff, general crap because it's easier than working out exact calories for my own food (who has time to weigh an onion?!) but then when I start eating 'proper' SW food I end up feeling uncomfortable.. Will try to drink LOTS today, including peppermint tea and hopefully it will pass thanks! X

WI day.. Had to buy new scales last night.. And I'm worried that they'll weigh me really light because I was like 10 stone something in my bedroom.. And I'm not! I'll try weighing things I know the weight of then weighing myself - or else I'll be back to buy some more!!

Edit: the scales are still atrocious on a tiled, flat surface (telling me I'm under 10 stone!) so that moves my WI day to Friday while I try and source some more scales.. X

Lol as much as I would love to recommend you take that weigh in result and run maybe buying some new scales would be the wiser option

Ripped the box as well so can't even return then to Argos from whence they came - hardly think going into the shop and saying 'these are faulty, I'm not that light' is going to get me taken seriously!! Although they were only £8 on sale, so maybe just take it on the chin! X

I am sure you can still take them back even though the box is ripped... They have to be fit for the purpose sold, and the box is only the package not the item sold... Take em back with your receipt...xx

[Befanwi]

Right it's fess up time, had a bit of a binge last night - although it was all free food/within my syns I wasn't hungry and was still eating.. I know that it's positive that I managed to stay within syns but it's still annoying!!

Still not managed to get hold of any scales.. So gonna just have to weigh in next week.. Gonna start my new week today as I think it will help with drawing a line under last night.. Only had 15 syns between last Monday and last night so it won't affect that..

Plus it means when I'm out tonight for Chinese and a friends gig then I will have a few more syns to play with.. I'm going to enjoy tonight, but it's NOT going to lead to a binge until Monday morning!! X

 

[GothGoddess]

Sounds like you have it under control... Keep going babe you will be fine...xx

Yesterday (not on plan)

No breakfast

Lunch: goats cheese and caramelised onion panini
half a carrot cake muffin/half a blueberry Danish (very small)

Dinner: few prawn crackers, salt and pepper lamb starter (ate half) and then broccoli in garlic sauce with a bit or rice and a few noodles (serving spoonful of each) wasn't really hungry and don't particularly like Chinese..

Alcohol: 1 x glass of white wine, 2 x Tsingtao bottled beers, 4 x gin and slimline tonics

Then when I got home a slice of bread with tuna pate and a packet of salt and vinegar snack a jacks

So not a great day - but not like a full binge/completely ridiculous day..

You kept control of it babe, which is so much better than I can do... You can pull that back with no problem for a loss next week...

Out again tonight, but not sure what to do.. But I'm confident I can sort it out again tonight.. Weighed on my inlaws scales last night and even though it was evening they said I was 11stone which was a 4lb loss since I last logged 2 weeks ago (only been on a plan some Monday) not sure how realistic that is though!
