Welcome back!!! You are sounding very positive. I bet it feels better having a diagnosis, now you know what is going on you can deal with it. Take care
It feels much better, i felt helpless not knowing whether i was going crazy or there was actually something wrong with me. I am learning how to deal with it now with lots of professional help, i can deal with certain situations much easier than i would have before diagnosis

So back to planning! this has been my food plan for today, I have fallen in love with EE recently... it's so easy to fit around everything
Extra easy
Breakfast - bacon & scrambled egg on a slice of allinsons white high fibre bread.
Lunch - baked potato topped with salmon, FF cottage cheese, cherry toms
Dinner - gammon, baby pots, carrots, cherry toms
Snacks - crisps (6.5) had these before i realised i had space raiders in the cupboard, could've saved 3 syns
Hea - 250ml semi skimmed milk
Heb - allinsons white high fibre bread
Syns - 6.5
58/105

Why Be Normal?
Hi Linz!!!
I just saw a post from MrsPayne on FB -- and now you're posting! Banner day!!!
Big hugs. My older sister is bi-polar, so is Catherine Zeta-Jones, Carrie Fisher, etc. in fact there is another woman on this forum who has discussed her living with the condition. I'll drop her a PM and ask that she subscribe to your diary.she does SW, too.
I'm glad things are god with you and Ryan. A little break might be good for your relationship -- you'll get a chance to miss each other and he can take notes for when he'll take you with him to Canada and be your tour guide.
I joined WW on Friday -- according to her scales I was well into the 12s (OMG -- my heaviest since 2008!), but on mine yesterday morning in my knickers I was 11.13.6! Lol So a whisper under, but still my heaviest since 2012. So, I've got to just "DO THIS" -- not drop a few pounds do my "fat clothes" are wearable then get complacent.
It's so much better to have answers and the treatment options have improved greatly in the 30 years since my sister has been diagnosed. I'm hear for you and have a lot of experience with this condition.

Hi everyone! not sure if anyone is still subscribed to my diary so i have a fear i'm going to be chatting to myself lol. I have been AWOL the past few months.... life has been busy! met some new friends, trying to get myself better mentally, got 2 jobs now, still on SW and now i'm in the 13 stone bracket after battling the 14's for nearly a year
I've had good weeks and bad weeks, but the main thing is i'm on the right road.. feeling much better bout myself now. I have been diagnosed with bi polar disorder. It was something that had never crossed my mind until my GP mentioned it. It hit me hard and i found it pretty hard to deal with in the first few weeks, i now have counselling sessions every week.
Still with Ryan and very happy too, we've been discussing our future together a lot recently (marriage, children, moving out etc) so it's all very exciting! He is off to Canada for 2 weeks to see his relatives who live over there on Monday, be the longest time we've spent apart since 2009 so that sucks a little... be back in no time though
So back to SW, i am now 13st12 which i'm very happy about seeing as looking at my statistics i was 14st3 last time i posted on here
I have also changed my target weight to 12st11 now... I will see how I feel when I get there, if i don't feel happy I will lower it again.
Anyway, enough rambling on.. I'm back now! xxxx
