Cookie's diary to be joyously slim

[Cookie21]

I wonder if SE would work well if you alternated days?! E.g. SE one day, EE the next, SE again, then EE etc. That way you definitely wouldn't feel deprived and would look forward to the next day. I find that with my 5:2 fast days!

I'm having pulled pork for dins but the idea of gammon with lots of pineapple and salad sounds like an amazing SE idea!

Things like celeriac, butternut squash, carrots etc can still be used for chips too. I reckon it would be ok if you got a little creative! xxx

Hello Lil,

That is a brilliant idea, I wasn't really quite sure how many days to do it but I like the idea of one day on and off. Today will be my SE day then I'll do EE to or row and so on.
Thanks for the tip xx

Well done in the small gain cookie!
Thanks again for my pressie!

Thank you Jen, and your very welcome xx

 

[Cookie21]

Not a bad gain at all. I might start to steal your menus as I am not doing so well. 4lb off then back on again then totm then no motivation! Your food always looks sooo good!

Hello Tiger,
I'm sorry to hear about your struggle, we all have those though. Do you have a diary here, I found that its helped me loads and people can help with ideas, help keep the motivation up too or pick you up when your having a wobble. Worth a thought? Xx

Hi Cookie
I did have a diary but didn't keep up with it as I mainly use my phone as no internet at home. I used to log what I ate on my phone then transfer into a book. I found it very helpful but there times when I had a big gain and after a month was still struggling to get it off so gave up for a week or 2. I will keep up the struggle and go back to basics!

Tiger, your more than welcome to use my diary to post your food if you want to, I really don't mind at all.
I think we all lose a little motivation at times but stick with it, don't give up try SE with me if you like, I can't guarantee any results but its worth a try xx

 

[Cookie21]

Good evening

I hope everyone is well. I've been off today but back in the work in the morning. Not done too much, gym, shopping, housework oh and I've booked our holiday yay!

Anyway food wise I've decided to do SE today as I'm off and I was really full last night, so full I didn't eat breakfast until after 10.15 and I'd been up since 7.30 so giving it another go

B = fruit salad & banana
L = salmon & egg salad with beetroot, pickled onions, mayo (1), prunes (hex b) & yogurt
S = melon & latte (hex a)
D = lamb curry, rice, salad
A = 2 hi fi light bars (hex b), fruit salad & yogurt, m&m's (5)

Total syns 6 I've not had my crisps as I'm full

There's a picture of my curry & salad before I mixed them up - was gorgeous only used half the curry as I had so much super free to get in so a little bit left for another meal next week
