Hey everyone!!

Well I weighed in on Wednesday and lost 0.5 lbs. So the last four weeks at class has been:

WK 1: -1.5lbs
WK 2: -1lbs
WK 3:- 2.5lbs
WK 4: -0.5lbs

So thats 5.5lbs in 4 weeks, which is ok, slow and sure! I'm having a bit of a bad week this week. I am going to Newcastle on Wednesday for 3 days so not weighing in this week, so been finding it really hard to stay on track!

So I made the decision to have a bit of a break this week, I think it will do me good as I have been getting very stressed about things! I keep cheating little bits and I am not fully committed at the moment. So the plan is, to have this week off until next Monday and then I am fully back on track. I am not going off plan completely, still going to try and make good decisions and watch what I eat, but not going to worry too much about going over syns etc.

I think the break will give me the motivation to get back on track 100%, I then have 5 weeks until holiday and hope I can get 10lbs off by then.

It might be a bit of a mistake, but I can't fully commit this week and all I am going to do is end up getting myself all upset because I can't do it! So weeks break and then 200% on track.

I will still try and put on what I eat so I can monitor how much I am having over syns etc.

Breakfast
Bacon
2 sausage- (5 syn)
2 hash brown (4 syns)
beans
scrambled eggs
2 warbutons toast (HEB + 2syn)

Snack
Small amount of left over chinese- 4 syn

Tea
Beef Stroganoff-( 4 syn)
Rice

Total syns: 19

have a lovely break in Newcastle honey xxx

 

[Freshstartnewme!]

Hey ellebear

Thanks my lovely. We relocated from Newcastle in March due to my boyfriend being made redundant. I had been there 7 years and Ben is from Newcastle so it was a big decision, but Ben got a good job here so we had to really!

My sister is still up there and its the first time I have been back since i left so looking forward to it!!

Well I just did a good exercise. Went through all my wardrobe and pulled out all the clothes that don't fit me. I put them all on a rail in the spare room. There is in excess of 30 items on there jeans, dresses and some holiday clothes I bought.

So on one side of the rail are clothes I can nearly get into that I want to take on holiday- 6 weeks. So every week I am going to go in after weigh in and try then on. It made me quite sad, but I think its done my good to do it. Also it means when I go to my normal wardrobe I don't now have to wade through all the clothes I can't wear which always makes me upset!!

So 6 weeks- 1 kind of week of goal: Get in all those size 16's.

WI on wednesday, when I got back from Newcastle, I was showing about a 4 lb gain, back down to nearly what I was now before I went now, so hoping for a STS or a little loss would be great.

4 weeks today until holiday so my mini plan for 4 weeks is 8-10lbs loss:

To exercise at least 1/2 per week. I know this isn't a lot but at the moment I am not doing anything, so its better than nothing.

• To try and get as much fruit and veg in as possible
• To stay under 15 syns per day
• To stay away from bread as much as possible!!

So to start I am going to try and ride my bike to work tomorrow!
