Hey diary,
Its been a very hectic week. Went down to London on Tuesday for a work related course. Then had INSET night on Wednesday so couldnt make WI. Admittedly I was off plan for two days. But im back on it now. I have stuffed myself stupid over the days i was off. Completely went ott. Found i was eating just coz i could and wasn't even hungry.
Update on the hair.. tried the egg treatment at the weekend. Seems to have helped a little bit. Continuing to take sea kelp. Havent managed to find the time to visit pharmacy but I will make a trip down in the morning. I ordered a bottle of protien conditioner which arrived on Wednesday and im going to give that a bash tonihgt.
I think my hair is just damaged (hopefully)so it should grow back nice and healthy. I havent used any heat on it for 2 and half weeks now. I have brought a very expensive heat defenser to use when i eventually have the guts to straighten it again. I know alot of you will say just dont bother but my hair is so wavy and fly away it just gets knotty if i leave it and its a nightmare to brush out meaning more hair falls out. I am having to wear it up in plates for work and i look like one of the school kids. lol.
Anyway, must check on tea. Pork chops and SW chippies with greens. Back afterwards xx

Morning,
Well I did the protein shampoo last night. It seems to have dried my hair out so I put a coniditoning treatment on afterwards which has helped. I really want to blow dry it or straighten it afterwards. But i know its best if i shouldnt.
Last night I drank half a bottle of red wine and ate a bag of crisps. Forgetting I had a bag of hula hoops on the way home from work OOPS!!
So I reckon I consumed about 35 syns yesterday. PMSL!!!
Today im going to try much better,
Breakfast- weetabix, 3 boiled eggs and tom sauce (2 syns)
Lunch- speedy soup, yoghurt
Snack- apple
Dinner- meant to be going out but if not I shall have homemade chilli and rice.

Hi Niknaks
well done on your latest loss :happy036:
your hair sound like mine.... mine looks lovely when its first brushed and then I step outside and "vhoomph" its all over the place
. I have a drier and straighteners but I think I have probably used the straighteners once and have only used a drier about 12 times in my 38 years 
my hair is in need of cutting -it is below my bra strap now -but I don't like the German hairdressers -so I guess it will be staying as it is until I visit home.
The kelp is good for your hair and also it is supposed to help speed up your metabolic rate too *bonus*:happy036:
Do you think reducing the fat in your diet might be a factor too? Thats why I still use olive oil (not spray stuff) and eat oily fish a couple of times a week... I know that I used to get dry skin when I did really low fat diets.... oohh and when you tie it up you don't pull it too tight do you? that can weaken it too...
oohh that turned into an essay....
Hope you have a lovely weekend..

Aww thanks Capricorn. You know what I havent thought about the reducing fat thing. But i am still eating crisps with my syns so I am consuming fat but just not my 'normal' amount lol. I have and will continue to up my oily fish in take. In the summer i wa eating tuna nearly every day but now the weather has changed ive just been living off veg soups.
I think its just straightening and colouring damage to be honest. I shall just have to be patient and let it grow out. Hopefully it will grow back to its thicker normal self.
It's been confirmed that I AM off out tonight for dinner with friends.
I don't know if any of you are from the north-west but my friend had her baby prematurely in America in August and it was on northwest tonight a couple of times. Well we are going to wet the babies head tonight. She flew back early September and it was two weeks ago the baby came out of hospital. She is bloody goregous!!!! Can't get enough of her.
So not too sure what i shall be eating. But im not drinking-purposefully!
Tomorrow is race day. Must get out some weight watchers bread to take with me for my bacon sarnie off the van man and boil up some rice or something. Oh and tuna and might peel the rest of the carrots i brought for my soup to munch on.
Onwards and downwards folks

Zumba was absolutely FANTASTIC!! I recommend anyone to go ahead and try this. I am doing it again tomorrow night. Cannot wait!
Yesterday was a god forsaken awful day on plan.
Woke up and immediately went to the crisp cupboard!!! Ate a pack of wotsits 4.5 syns. Was good then up until the evening. We went to a wedding reception drank too many syns worth of vodka, and did shots too! Also ate a small piece of wedding cake, a pack of quavers AND a kitkat chunky!:whoopass:I did however dance the night away and got a sweat on!
Hopefully by reducing my syns to 5 a day until weigh in plus my zumba class I should be ok. JUST!
Good night though HAHA!
Tried that chicken curry reciepe out of this months mag last night- nom nom nom got some portions in freezer too.
Todays menu- EE
Breakfast- Joes sausage, bacon, beans, tomato and 3 weight watchers toasts. (HEB)
Lunch- Batchelors pasta and broccoli
Dinner-Gammon, SW chips, fried onions, tomato and peas
Lots of food for me today- hungover!!!
