New to SW and thinking i am having too much!

[zoe302]

Well done Missus, I am so impressed with yopur motivation, I really need to take a leaf from your book!!! I am still too cream crackered plus I have only just got home from a twilight inset to discover my red day is screwed as husband though BNS chips meant beans & chips, so dinner is beans and chips... lol.

Are you joking you are my complete inspiration Shrimpy!!

Ah sure the rest of your day wasnt to bad-even if you were planning a red-I am sure you got it OK for an Xtra easy day.

I can only manage the exercise because I am working part time so I am very lucky-but regardless I know what I am like and coming home at 4/5 is still gonna wreck me!

Shucks! :hug99: I don't know what to say, I don't feel much like one particularly today!

I'm okay for an EE day, though dinner was green, LOL.

I'm so KNACKERED at the mo, am just hoping that this week will be the end of utterly sleepy week.

 

[zoe302]

Well you are so tough luck

I just stuffed my face with syns even though I was full oops.

So I just had a treat size crunchie-4 syns, a peguin-5 syns, and I will be having 2 czech lagers-2 syns. So with my pasta n sauce earlier (0.5) that is a total of 11.5 syns.


I only had them because I almost feel like I have to have them if you know what I mean-but maybe I should stop that! Because generally when I start I eat all 15 lol

[Shrimpy]

LOL,they are there to be eaten though!

 

[zoe302]

So today is a green day-I really didnt fancy fruit this morning .
So instead I had a cup of coffee (milk 1/2 hexA)
with...a peppered steak sandwich-2 syns for brown sauce, 1 hex B for bread.
Lunch was an alpen light(1/2 2nd hexB) with 2 oranges, an apple, and a nectarine.
Snack-coffee with 2nd alpen light.

Dinner-Rissotto with onions, peppers, quorn chicken, stock, spices, quark and some BNS cubes. Topped with 21g of light cheddar (2nd 1/2 of hexA)

I am now stuffed and have some 'beer' in the fridge, so I will have those later to bring today to 4 syns.

May have something chocolatey later, but \I am so so so so tired today I may be asleep at 10-well after I watch Claire Richards tonight. Watching it because she reminds me of me-emotional eater who yo-yos. Granted I never get down to 10 stone (well I will this time) because I always stop early-reward myself and pile it back on!


Anyway that is all chicks

I watched Claire's programme last week. That girl has got issues! You gotta learn to love yourself ... or at least work with what you've got! That's my philosophy anyway

Have you dieted before then hun?

This is my first serious diet in 20 years! I've been to SW twice before but only stuck 5 weeks. This time (the last time ) deffo feels like more of a lifestyle change - I've been on it since January! I did start to get a wee bit disheartened in July when I was at a standstill but I know the alternative would be much worse, ie, going back to my old eating habits.

I've always lost weight 4 an event or girlie night out & always put it all back on & more 2! I've got a night out on the 14th oct so am trying 2 get as much as poss off by then. I'd be happy 2 lose another 4 or 5lbs. I weighed in 2day at the gym & i lost a lb. I really thought it was gonna be more & felt a bit peeved! Silly really isn't it cuz a loss is a loss & better than a gain. Im not expecting anything off next wk as my monthly will be due that wkend. Maybe I'll have a big loss the wk after )

[monkeychops1819]

All sounding good Zoe, oh, and just love Shrimpy's comment re the "hot pants" ha ha - although we won't be laughing when they burn off the fat eh?!! Way to go girl.

Well I stayed the same this week, and am late checking in because been a big busy old weekend, hubby had a pre-40th party where I was sooooo good you wouldn't believe it; no party food or alcohol just a cupcake! Very impressed with myself overall, but I didnt write down during the week for several reasons, so think that is maybe where I went wrong. Would love to get down to 11 stone which is my next goal so trying harder this week.

Good luck with WI tonight Zoe & good luck all for a good week!

 

[zoe302]

Hey all

I lost 1 pound, and should be very happy but I feel very disheartened and I dont know why. COnsultant mentioned that our losses recently havent been good and it has somehow made me feel bad even though I know it isnt aimed at me!

Sigh dont know whats wrong. Next week would like a solid 2 lbs
