Ugh hate school holidays....been shopping and kids were really well behaved so said id treat them to dinner, they chose mcdonalds....i caved and got a mcdonalds too...

So mad at myself, constantly failing recently, I just have no motivation to lose weight...id rather just eat what I want. Not a good idea though as I can pile the weight on quite quick.

Breakfast

Strawberries and muller light

Dinner

McChicken sandwich meal
Diet coke

Tea
Turkey mince chilli con carne

Im thinking I could do weekly syns and see if that helps me out more? Not eating anything else today that is it. Off to work out the damage of my dinner....
 
Hi Melissa, sorry you're struggling :-( weekly syns works really well for some people and not at all for others! I'd say give it a try and see how you get on?
Sometimes sw is so frustrating. It's ridiculously easy to stick to in theory but that urge to just eat what you want can be overwhelming- I am all too familiar with it haha xx
 
Im so close to target which surprisingly doesnt help...I just think "oh Ive still got another 10 weeks to lose 7lb, a cheat today wont matter" but it does! Need to snap out of it or the weight is gonna sneak back on! Been shopping and bought lots of healthy food, going to my friends tomorrow but going to take my veg soup with me, fruit and a muller light for dinner (y)

Good plan! Organisation is so the key with sw. That and a little willpower I suppose lol.
Know what you mean about target making you complacent. My initial target is about 2lb away though I think I'd like to carry on and see when my losses stop!
It does make you think beggar it though.
Have you tried Kay's soup challenge? It's fab for a boost and relatively easy lol xx
 
Yeah next week should be easier as kids are back at school and back to normality....gonna plan some soups and go shopping on Friday then have a big cooking marathon on Sunday!

No tea tonight as felt so bad from eating McDonald's....going to bed soon so I'm not tempted to snack.

Got friends coming over in the morning with their little boy, going to do a little teddy bears picnic for them, lots of low Syn treats though.
