heelllloooo!
just realised i forgot to post yesterday!
1lb off at weigh in...again
hmmmph!
i did hope for more, i physically felt like it might've been more and i had a good week.
5.5 on the other week no probs....not so fast at coming off despite the intake of fruit, veg and a LOT of water/squash!
so much for the quick on, quick off stuff eh!
yesterday's food was iffy....i had a too many HEb's (almonds, crunchy bran and a hifi) but just didn't know what i fancied all day and was in a snacky frame of mind.
pics are breakfast, lunch and a coconut iced donut which managed to creep in lol, no pic of dinner but i had stovies (sausages and potatoes all mushed together) - not had them for years! they were good.
i also had some miniature heroes....when i say some, i mean too many! and some crisps at night
i dunno what i'm thinking about my weight loss journey just now. i feel great for being on plan and eating healthy, i "feel" slimmer at times and i enjoy my food....but the numbers aren't reflecting it and no matter how hard i try not to focus on them...i can't help but let it annoy me a bit. dunno if i'm a bit bored with sw or if it's just down to the last 2 weigh ins?
i know i'm a bit heavier now than i was this time last year, but i also know that's down to the fact that since november last year, i've not really had to same mojo as i did when i first started....but when i do have it, the results are so slow.
yes 1lb a week is still 52lbs a year....but it's driving me nuts! people eat way more than me, they have treat days all the time and still see losses every week....the green eye'd monster is playing havoc with me lol
i really just want to have a balanced, healthy diet, with some treats along the way and as you all know, being off work in august, made me realise how difficult sw can be for eating out unless you've cooked and prepared for hrs before you go anywhere!
i want to eat the healthy foods, the foods that are good for me, filling etc...but i also want a bit of slack at times where it's ok to grab something like a sandwich and it not seem like the worst thing in the world!
was looking on IG earlier at the WW filling and healthy plan and how it's pretty much the same as sw free foods, but you can also have crumpets, sandwich thins, ww bready products, oats, puffed wheat, shredded wheat etc without counting it all...and i'm wondering if i should try introducing some of them now and again....or if it would show a gain for me cos i'm eating more bread products?
i think to have oats/those cereals for breakfast, a sandwich thin at lunch and a healthy, home made dinner with fruit to snack on and a wee treat at night like i've always had (on both ww and sw) is totally do-able...but i just have the fear to try?
to be honest, i dunno whether just to have a few days/a week of not doing anything...to give my head a rest....but eating healthy from the foods listed between both ww and sw...they both promote healthy eating so might be worth a try? and lets face it...these plans are looking at long term results, long term changes which are easy to sustain and not just for a quick fix!
feel like a bloody broken record! this year has def had ups and downs for me but it's getting closer to xmas and again, i'd thought about a number i'd like to be by then...and it's draaaaagggging on like mad!
i just think if i could get a decent loss, it would motivate me a wee bit more?
bah! x
