Emma's Baby weight has got to go

[speccy4eyes]

Finding the heat really difficult to deal with
I'm hot.....Have terrible sunburn and I just don't want to eat

I have however forced myself to eat lunch today and I am contemplating Pizza for dinner tonight with SW chips
Or I might just stuff the SW chips in a wholemeal pitta and be done with it lol

Got a copy of Just dance 3 for the Wii yesterday and late last night, me and my fella decided to test it out...........Well ten songs later and a couple of games of simon says and I was absolutely pooped

Its got a keep fit function on it (which I have yet to try out) but if its anything like the song selection, I'm gonna be sweating buckets
Doesn't feel like exercising at all and we are so competitive when it comes to things like this so we definitely give it our all

Maybe this will help me to lose more than my usual 1.5lbs....... I guess we will see on Sunday xx

Had to sit at my Parent's house today (with Caitlin) waiting for a delivery. Packed a huge breakfast and lunch to take with me, as I knew they wouldn't have anything I would eat there and I couldn't leave to go out and buy anything

Passed the time making chocolate covered strawberry and Marshmallow Kebabs for a Jubilee Party I am catering tomorrow..........Also baked and iced 50+ cupcakes........ So hard not to lick the spoon or eat the finished product but I managed to hold on to my resolve

My new Graze Box arrived today
I got Honey and Lemon Oatcakes (little oaty biscuits with a pot of honey to dip them in)
Mississippi BBQ pistachios
Cherry Bakewell
and a honeycomb flapjack

 

[speccy4eyes]

Today I am off to a Jubilee Party and I've been busy making Food for it
chocolate covered strawberries and Marshmallow Kebabs.....definintely not syn free ......there's about 2 syns worth of chocolate....don't know what the syns are for a Marshmallow but there are three on each stick lol
Took all my resolve not to lick the spoon or my fingers when I was covered in chocolate.....I chucked everything straight in the washing up bowl (full of hot water and liquid)
Also made 60+ fairy cakes (for my daughter's jubilee celebrations at school and a party my mum is hosting today)
with the icing, they work out about 3/3.5 syns each.....So I am definitely going to make sure I get one of these later

When I first started SW, my weigh in day was a MONDAY...............It was changed after we went on holiday and came home.
Since then my partner has found it really hard to shift any weight. He would weigh in on a sunday morning and then spend the rest of the day having a major blow out.
He's asked if we can move the weigh in back to the Monday morning as he feels it will help to keep him on track over the weekend when he is more likely to cheat.
So No weigh in today............. will post any losses or gains tomorrow

 

[speccy4eyes]

Its Weigh In Day

Well I'm back to my original weigh in day (as it was 15 weeks ago) I prefer the monday (though the change back wasn't my idea, it was my boyfriend's) Its so easy to cheat at the weekend when you weigh in on a sunday.....I would try to be good but once you've stepped on the scales there is that thought of 'Oh well I can have a treat now'............ My fella took his treats too far and has had weeks where he has gained instead of losing.....and there have been quite a few maintain weeks too

Today I'll be happy with a simple 1lb loss, especially as I've indulged in fairy cakes this weekend at Jubilee Parties.....oh and the Bangers and Mash that were not SW friendly

Off to the scales I go....................


I LOST 2LBS
:happy036:

Thats a total loss of 30.5lbs (2 stone 2.5lbs) in 15 weeks
Wow, I can't believe its been that long, I've never stuck at a diet/healthy eating/lifestyle change plan for this long....EVER.

My BMI has dropped from 34.5 to 29.7..............For the first time since I was a teenager I am classed as OVERWEIGHT and not OBESE......Thats a major achievement in my eyes.....Other people will think I am nuts......but I'm happy to be classed as overweight lol....... Maybe one day I will be Normal weight but for now.....I'm thrilled
