They're yum. Wish I didn hav them here tho. So tempted to go back for a second bag loo

 

[skinnybean2b]

I can't have things in the house otherwise I just eat them! I don't buy anything naughty when I'm on a diet, if Ben wants fattening food he has to eat it at work haha.

I'm in the office on my own for the next 2 days and I know it will be hard to be good as I will be sooooo bored! But I am armed with bars, mullerlights and bits and pieces!

Aww.. Don't be nervous JellyBelly... I was like that my first week.. Felt heavier if anything.. I went straight from doing WW to SW so wasn't expecting a big loss anyway (you know the way yer first week doing any diet gives a good loss?!) but lost 4lb... No idea how... ha.. Anyway, my point is, you prob don't feel like you've lost coz yer not hungry.. But I bet you have
Do you have a diary of yer own here??

Hmmm... Chicken stew needs 6-8hours in the slow cooker when cooked on high.. So the chicken stew for dinner is a no no today.. Will put it on tomoro before I leave for work I think...
So will have.... (sw) chips, eggs, beans n bacon medalions for dinner tonight i think... Add some sausages to that for BF coz he needs fattening up

Hi girlies!

Well I had weigh in last night and lost 2lbs! Can't understand why since I have def been over on my syns the past 2 weeks. Saying that I have been trying to concentrate on free and superfree since I have been going over syns. Also been trying to eat a proper dessert straight after dinner each night so that I am properly full-up, have had a good sweet treat and I don't need to snack the rest of the evening - perhaps that is working. But am getting fed up of the quark + sweetener + fruit combo! Shall have to spread me dessert wings a bit I think.

Well today - slept in eek, so had a small scone with jam for brek [no idea of syns], and for lunch just had rice and peas and curry sauce! Just had a blue ribband and a diet coke - not my usual routine but our manager brought them in as a treat, bless him, and he said he got diet versions especially lol.

For dinner I don't know yet but it will be free + superfree foods. And yoghurt/fruit.

I am going to try the 'speed curry' this week - any of you gals tried it? It just sounds wrong to me - blending mushy peas and baked beans together!?!??!?- but loads of people say it is so gorge - so I will try it!

My unexpected lost has been great for my motivation - I thought I had stalled completely, but this has encouraged me that something is obviously working and its not all bad - so I will keep going!

Hey jelly - def make sure you prepare your meals for work - it does make a big difference.

Good luck for WI tmro Dubs n Jelly!

When is your WI skinny?

Does anyone else feel like the harder you try the less you lose???

Hi doodles!!

Well done on your way in! I always have turkish delight muller light for my dessert. then a cup of tea a little later before bed.

I weighed in on tues and lost a whole 1lb! haha. I had a very naughty weekend though so this week i want to loose 2!

I have never heard of this speed curry, sounds a bit yuk, let me know how it tastes though!

Today i was doing ee but i have had my heb already and dont want to waste 6 syns on a bread roll so i may just have some muller light for lunch and do a red day. Im really hungry anyway thank god!

[Dubchick81]

Hi Pinky... Yea have heard loads go on about mushy pea curry.. Meant to be delish.. I may try it.. One day.. lol

And yes.. I totally agree.. The harder I try, the less I lose.. But I think for me, when I try to be 100% good all week.. I eat too little.. I know that sounds rubbish but tis true...

 

[Pinkydoodles]

eek - feel up on some free food quick - esp if you are alone in the office - then you are more likely to go off plan! well I am anyway lol. did I hear you say "a whole 1lb"?!?!?!!!?? do you know what a whole pound of fat actually looks like!!!?!?!? someone on here has a pic as their signature - take a good look at it then tell yourself is it still 'just a lb!'. it is still an achievement! although I do remember some weeks only loosing 1lb or half lb and it does seem like nothing - but I am on the other side so from here I can reassure you that it ain't!! [you may have to do this for me next week lol]

dubs i suppose there could be something in it if you are not eating enough - I know my leader said about how important it is to get enough water and fibre coz that actually carries the waste out of your body. there was a scan bran challenge this week and group and lost of people had several pounds off, esp when they had been stuck for a few weeks. just proves that if you change it up a bit it gets your body working again! maybe time to try some new recipes?

also, my bit of wisdom for this week - you have to look at the journey overall - not get hung up on one day or each individual weight-in - but look at the general weight loss over a month or a few weeks - as long as it is going down, its all good.

Its all good!! ;-p xx

I made the scan bran chocolate cake a while back.. Was nice.. Not delish like "real" chocolate cake.. But done the trick.. Tho it doesn't lose the scan bran texture....

I must admit this is the first time I have ever thought I don't care if it takes me a year to loose all my weight, as long as I loose or even Sts each week I'm heading in the right direction. I'm allowing myself a treat if I really want something as otherwise I fall off the wagon completely! If I had this mentality 3 years ago id be at goal but no I kept thinking I must get it off now! Then hit it hard for 4 weeks or so and then give up!

55lbs to go! This time next year I will be in the 11's. xxx
