Taking my son to football tonight so might use my Syns on a chocolate bar to take ss always get hungry there.

Had a sneaky weigh in today and shows up as -1 lb so I'm pleased with that. Must be doing something right then. Just worried that when I start having carbs ill put it on. I'll just introduce them slowly I think. Have a good day xx
 
Hi hun, food sounds good today. Do you know you can start your own diary on the main diaries page if you want to track your food each day? Every one has their own individual diaries here and you're posting your food in mine at the min - not trying to be rude lol, just letting you know in case you didn't realise! There's so many forums here on Minis that it can be confusing at first! X
 
Oh no I didn't realise that. Opps, sorry about that. I'll try and have a look for that then. Yeah I have got all confused and just bunged it here. Didn't mean to jump in yours x
 
Now that it's Tuesday I hope your hangover has disappeared ;-) x
 
Feeling crap today. I couldn't resist a look at the scales this morning and my weekend binge has me 2lbs up. So it's damage limitation until official weigh in on Friday. Then i got a text from my dad saying the vet thinks our 14 year old family cat has a tumour. They're bringing her in Thursday to confirm and if so she'll have to be put down. So ive spent a few hours crying about that. No interest in food today, im feeling sick to my stomach over it all. I made up the bolognese for tonight's dinner to try to take my mind off it and now the smell of garlic around the house is making me want to puke. Ive also got pms to deal with so overall it's been a bad day! Trying to pass the time now till bf gets home from work so i can have a cry on his shoulder.
Sorry for the long rant, just needed to get it all out somewhere!

Hey You! Don't EVER apologise for ranting, that's what we are here for, to listen! I'm sorry to hear about the cat :-( Don't worry about the scales, it's probably just water weight after the food/drink, Im confident that it will be gone by Friday. Hope your bf gives u big cuddles and kisses when he gets home. X

Well the weather took a turn for the insane here in Ireland today so swimming plans went out the window! I did get a walk in - only because I absolutely had to go to the post office - so some exercise at least! And probably extra speedy because I was getting soaked! :)
Food plan changed a little as a result, so ill update my diary after ive had dinner in a bit
 
My food ended up being:

Breakfast: fat free lemon yoghurt, banana, tea with unsweetened almond milk (part hea)

Lunch : Sandwich with 2 slices of wholemeal bread (heb ), egg, lettuce, tomato and light mayo (1). Apple

Bad news this morning as expected, the vet found that my cat had a lot of tumours so she had to be put down. Very sad today, but i know it was the humane thing to do as she wouldn't have had any quality of life.

I was a bit flustered after finding out so i kinda made a mess of my food plan and ate bread, forgetting i was saving my heb for dinner. But i think i can turn today into a green day and have both. Ive never done green before so hopefully im not wrong with this plan!

Breakfast: fat free lemon yoghurt. Tea w almond milk (part hea1)

Lunch: 2 slices of wholemeal toast (heb1) with butter (2) and cheese (part hea1)

Snacks: half a benefit bar (1.5), purple snack (5), 2 biscuits (8 )

Dinner : enchiladas. 1 bfree wrap (heb2), mushrooms, onions, peppers, refried beans, salsa (1). Topped with cheese (hea2)

Syns: 17.5. A tiny bit over but i needed some comfort food today!
