So this evening, instead of binging on rubbish (which I normally do when the other half is out), I have made a big batch of vegetable soup to take to work for lunch this week. My main problem is failing to prepare so this should keep me on track!

It helps to eat your whole syn allowence sometimes. People who eat 1-5 syns for the day often find a slower weight loss and sometimes binge eat or give up because their body feels deprived. Don't feel guilty about using all your syns

 

[NotsolittleEm]

You are correct about the binge eating I've been really busy at work as well as star week and a chest infection and I have managed to put on half the weight I lost, in a week!! I now feel really annoyed at myself but I am determined to get it off next week. From tomorrow I am on a mission, SP days only! Wish me luck, I need to loose the 4 1/2 lb that I gained!!

Good luck
