Jaylou's diary~Much better now!

Wow!!! Well done! Sounds like you've well and truly cracked it. I think you've overtaken me this week.
What do you reckon your success was down to this week? Foods look fab...but what did it? Share with the stalkers ;)
 
Wow - 6lbs off in 3 weeks, what an achievement! Many congratulations on all your hard work, you must feel great at just 1lb above your lowest ever weight! At last you've got that much needed leeway that we all crave - although top end of target range would suit me fine at the moment!

Well Done - keep up the good work!!!
 
I'm not sure. It could be a number of things..... only snacking on superfree (or not snacking), thinking about whether I need the "extras" on my plate. Not eating any rubbish. Stacking up on the superfree. Trying not to eat so much generally.

It's short term, hard work until I get to where I want to be which is 9st11. Luckily I don't have much on for the next two weekends (well not currently planned) so I'm really hoping for that last little pound next week.
 
Yep - I am a happy girl! I feel pretty good too. :D

Wednesday 11th Red

Breakfast 2 weetabix (B) milk (A)

Lunch Spicy roasted butternut squash soup (souperfree!!). Banana. Activia FF yoghurt

Dinner 3 Tesco light choices sausages (3) 2 fried eggs, mushrooms and tinned tomatoes.

A - 28g cheese B - 4 ryvita
 
Check you out, you skinny thing you!!!!

Well done on your losses Hun. Im going to become an "open" stalker instead!! Lol...dont seem to be feeling the loss at the moment and feel as if Im eating the same things all the time...so super free foods it is then!!

xx
 
Variety is the spice of life for me. I could eat jacket spuds every night if OH would let me but as he won't do this I like to vary our meals and try to include things DD will eat too. She's getting better but still won't eat things like risotto so these are reserved for the adults!

I just bought the new cookbook, Family Feasts for a Fiver and am currently making a shopping list to start working my way through that.

I also try to do a different soup each week to keep my lunches varied too :)
 
Thursday EE

Breakfast 2 poached eggs with mushrooms and rocket on 2 small toast (B)

Lunch Roasted butternut squash soup. Banana and Activia FF yoghurt

Dinner Cottage pie (leftovers from last week) with carrots and peas. Gravy (2)

Edit - naughty last night. I got in late and was hungry so had a cheese and coleslaw sandwich. Small bread but luxury coleslaw. OMG, it was soooooo nice ;)

Friday 12th March Green

Breakfast 2 poached eggs on 2 small toast (B)

Lunch Roasted butternut squash soup (last portion!). Banana and Activia FF yoghurt

Dinner Vegetable dahl (cauli, peas, sweet potato, onion, red lentils and spices) with boiled rice. 2 poppadoms (5) Tomato and onion salad and raita (made with FF yoghurt)

Won't have any syns other than the poppadoms and I'm not sure about the second B choice yet?? Maybe a Hifi bar later on as Friday is usually a late night!
 
Get you in the 9stones, you skinny minx!! Seriously a massive well done hun ~ I have said it before and I will say it again, you are one of the most dedicated and determined members on here (and your food always sounds scrummy) ~ hope your weekend is going well, xx
 
Just to say well done Jaylou on getting into the 9s!! That's incredible!! You deserve it, always inspirational and focussed!! XXX
 
Thanks Heather. I'm not sure I'll be in the 9's tomorrow - had a pizzatastic weekend!

Not really been on plan this weekend, it's been very very busy and I let myself get too hungry on Saturday so resorted in a sandwich in town and then a sandwich from Tesco later on. Must remember never ever to only go out with a banana in my belly for a busy day. It's not enough!!
Then had oodles of pizza and garlic bread for dinner.

Yesterday wasn't too bad, I was totally on plan apart from one slice of cold pizza.

Anyway, a couple of days of good food may limit some damage!!

Monday 15th EE

Breakfast Half a banana sliced onto 3 ryvita crackerbread (3)

Lunch "old fashioned chicken soup" from the new cookbook. This looks fantastic!! Activia yoghurt.

Dinner Ham, eggs, tinned tomatoes and a few SW chips.

A - milk B - bread roll
 
Struggling today. CBA to be honest! I've had white bread toast with utterly butterly for breaky and a tortilla wrap with chicken for lunch. Hmm. Not impressed with oneself but feeling full of cold and fed up.

Bah.

Got meatloaf out of the new cookbook for dinner so one meal will be on plan (unless i have it with oven chips.....,)

Feel flabby and reckon I've put my wonderful 2lb loss back on. Oh well.

*goes off to give oneself a good talking to*

Oooph - 2lb! My friend, we need words. Where is the Actual Effort?! ;)

Your pizzatastic weekend will be matched by my currytastic one - I don't think I'll be losing that gain from last week...I might even not be in the 9s any more. How are we both failing this 'get to 9st7' race challenge thingy?!

Here's to a better week next week.

Actual Effort has been located lurking in the cupboard. It has been rightfully returned to me ;)

So I'm going to plan my meals for the week, I have a mountain of veg so we will be having lots of cabbage, broccoli, carrots and swede this week!

Wednesday 17th Extra Easy

Breakfast 2 poached eggs on 2 small toast (B) with rocket and tomatoes

Lunch Sweet potato and spinach frittata with tinned tomatoes. Activia yoghurt.

Dinner Lamb and barley casserole (from the new book) with savoy cabbage and broccoli. The casserole has carrot and swede in it. Lots of superfree!

A - milk
Syns - tesco cereal bar thingy 4.5 & 3 lempsip (6?)

I'm going to have a bowl of berries with FF natural yoghurt for suppertime.
