*deep breath* my journey to a thinner / healthier me

[BopKatie]

Thats a good idea hun! Think I might sort through my wardrobe and put a load on ebay. I know there is a clothes swapping thread on here somewhere too.

As for eating SW on holiday. I would give yourself a couple days to enjoy yourself and just make sensible choices (lean grilled meats, salads, vegetables, things you know wont be fried and cooked in oil) and you can still enjoy the food there And if you happen to go over a little just note it down and know that you are being so much better eating wise than you would have been if you weren't doing slimming world

Home alone tonight and I'm raging Chris came home last night and I'd asked him to take a few things upstairs, tidy the kitchen and make sure I didn't have to rush around. And he's not done a single thing that I asked him to, so my lazy night and day that I had got planned are going to spent tidying up :sigh:

Not having mini shortcakes now, so am going to have 6 syns worth of cheese in my pasta and an eaton mess type thing (3 syns), so I'm still on 12.5 syns as I didn't have the salad cream at lunch time

Off to do some tidying up

He had a shower and went on his xbox And he's in a strop with me now because I got annoyed when I walked through the door

Will be back on later, once the kitchen doesn't look like it's been hit by a bomb xx

 

[Undecided]

Brilliant - well done on your 3lb loss. You are doing so well!

 

[EmmyR1984]

Right, kitchen done, have had a soak and destress in the bath and have put my sausages in the oven ready for dinner

I'm going to text Chris and tell him he can make it up to me by buying me some sausages, burgers and marinated meat from Joe's Sausages

Hope everyone has a great night I think I'm getting food done and then settling in bed to watch Gilmore Girls (am into season 3 now), plus search for some new disney dvds to add to my collection

Fab loss Emmy WTG.

How did you get over your down spell on Saturday. Could you bottle whatever you did and send it my way, I'm in dire need of a boost.

 

[pjallen1982]

Just a quick one to say well done on your fab weight loss. Excellent stuff and much deserved! X

Just doing a quick food plan for tomorrow ...

Brekkie - banana, strawberries, muller light, weetabix and milk (hexb + 3.5 syns and hexa)
Lunch - tuna, sweetcorn and pasta
Snack - apple
Dinner - really stuck on ideas, will update tomorrow xx

 

[EmmyR1984]

And this is why I don't like Chris being away for the night and me being home alone. I think I got in about 2 hours sleep and I'm shattered and in a stinking mood :8855: I've had brekkie quite late so I think I'll just snack on fruit and will probably skip lunch.

I scale hopped this morning as I wanted to double check that I'd been right at my mum's and not dreaming up my loss, and another 1lb has gone. I'm not counting anything until next monday as I know the scales can fluctuate and the scales are back in their box

Plan for today - not a lot to be honest. I think it's going to spent in my pjs, in bed, on the computer, waiting for Chris to get back and looking for a hotel in London for december (we go down and do christmas shopping and go to winter wonderland in hyde park).

 

[EmmyR1984]

Positives for today

1) I have talked Chris into letting us try a new hotel in London this year
2) My belly seems flatter
3) I stayed on plan yesterday despite being home alone and bored

 

[lsf666]

Well done Emmy x

I'm not hungry at all today, or thirsty either. I haven't even drunk half a litre of water yet and I'm still going strong on my breakfast from earlier

I've decided I'm going to make another chilli con carne tonight, so that will be onions, garlic, mushrooms, tomatos, baked beans, kidney beans, lean mince and I'm thinking of adding some smoked bacon tonight for a change, so I'll have a big bowl of that followed by strawberries, raspberries, ff fromage frais and a meringue nest (3 syns). And if Chris manages to get them I'm going to have a mini bag of oreos for supper (6 syns)

Still can't find a different hotel for London (I want somewhere near Hyde Park or the museums, but can't find anything cheap enough) so it looks like we're going to be back at Earl's Court again this year

Our posts crossed. I'm guessing you are planning a red day or 2. I'm just jealous it all sounds lovely & yummy. My teeth are watering now. Hmmm can I change my plans for tea/dinner??
