Thanks Zoe, it was gorgeous but there was so much of it!!
Food diary for yesterday was:
Breakfast - banana
Lunch - wholemeal pitta bread (HEb) with ham, lettuce, cucumber and spring onion with mayo (1 syn) skips (4 syns)
Snack - Orange
Tea - i attempted a cheesey gammon, mushroom and leek bake which turned out ok but it was a bit weird! It had in it gammon, smoked bacon (fat removed) mushrooms, leeks, sweetcorn, 2 eggs, light choices cottage cheese with onion and chives, light cheese (HEa) and breadcrumbs on top (2 slices of WW wholemeal bread so 3 syns for my half). We had it with potato salad, coleslaw and salad (4 syns for mayo)
Syns for Tuesday - 12
Food Diary for Wednesday -
Breakfast - Pear
Snack - Apple
Lunch - WM pitta (HEb) with ham, salad and mayo (1 syn) and a greek mullar light (0.5 syns)
Snack - Grapes
8.5
Tea - Chicken (fat and skin removed) with leeks, peppers and smoked baco (fat removed) with a jacket potato and light cheese (HEa) with salad and light garlic bread (6 syns) and i will have some bbq sauce (1 syn)
That would make it 8.5 syns for the day but my friend has just text me to say he has bought millies cookies for dessert...noooo! After looking on here it seems theyre about 9.5 syns each so im gonna treat myself to one and have a syn free day tomorrow

You're all totally right, 9.5 isnt that bad at all! But...i ended up eating 2 of them warmed up with 1 scoop of vanilla ice cream and way more garlic bread with tea than intended! Im annoyed with myself, really struggling to find willpower after having a week off. So yesterday ended up being 34 syns on top of the 8.5 already so 42.5 syns eeekkk!! Today my only syn will be 0.5 for a greek mullar light if i decide to have it.
Breakfast - pear
Snack - orange
Lunch - WM pitta (HEb) with dairylea light (HEa) chicken and sweetcorn
Snack - apple, greek mullar light (0.5 syns)
Tea - syn free chilli with jacket potato
Tomorrow will be a low syn day too so hopefully i will still be within my weekley syns xx

Food diary for Friday -
Breakfast - pear
Snack - banana
Lunch - 4 x ryvita (heb) with light lc cheese (hea) and chicken

I've just not had time to post on here this week at all! Good news is i've stuck to plan 100% this week, after another STS on Monday i'm determined to try harder and get some willpower back. After looking back through my diary, my biggest losses seem to be when i've had my daily syns (between 10 and 15, sometimes more which makes NO sense!) every day and my HE's and just stuck loadsa superfree in there as well. So, thats what i'm aiming for. I've also decided to lower my target, as i think trying to lose 1 stone 10lb in 14 weeks is very ambitious and i dont want to get stuck on the '10 stone' figure. I always said 10 stone because that would make me 'Healthy' according to my BMI, but to be honest after looking at pictures of me when i was 10 stone after losing a lot of weight a few years ago (and also listening to many, many of my friends) i think i did look a bit too thin. I had no boobs and you could see my bones, and i dont think i looked particularly attractive like that. I think i suit having *some* curves.
So, i'm changing my target to 11 stone for when i go 'official' dress shopping on July 30th in Manchester. Then, i'm going to decide if i want to lose any more, and how much more i want to lose if any.
I feel a bit like i'm backing down, but i dont want to feel pressure to be in a healthy BMI if i feel healthier and more myself being slightly heavier, even if i am classed as 'Overweight'.
So, i've changed my target and my mini goals and hopefully i will reach it.
Hope everyone enjoys their weekend!! xxx

Hi! Good job sticking to plan! Yeah my consultant is on a mission making everyone use their syns as u really do get a better result using them up!
Don't feel like ur backing down at all, everyone is different and I def think u can look too thin, my mum has said to me I can't go below what I was at Uni cos I was too thin then even tho according to SW I was allowed to lose another stone! It's madness I think the lower limits r way too low! I think every guy I know wants girls to have some curves. It isn't even about the number is it, it's about how u feel and like u say if u feel healthier and happier then that's ur perfect weight.
Wedding dress shopping has seemed to come round so quickly! Exciting! Have a good weekend xx

2lb off woohoo! Feeling much better after a STS for the past few weeks. Cutting out alcohol definitely makes a big difference, i find even if i save up my syns to use on alcohol i still either STS or Gain!
Good luck to all the other Monday weighers xx

Another 2lb lost this week woo
I hardly ever update my food diary on here anymore, think its because SW has become second nature now and i dont need to write down my syns to remember how many ive had, plus im so busy at work and out of work i hardly have the time!
This weekend its my OHs birthday, so its a very indulgent weekend for me so i am expecting a gain. Friday we're going to Scarborough for the day for fish n chips and ice cream, then back home for a takeaway and a few drinks with his family. Saturday we're having a BBQ/Eurovision party where everyone has to dress up and bring some food from a country in the Eurovision Song Contest! Im going as Greece and making a meze board and chicken souvlaki, all SW friendly but i will be drinking and no doubt sampling other peoples dishes! Sunday we're going to an All You Can Eat buffet in leeds! So, definitely a gain for me but its a special occasion and i'm really looking forward to it
Hope everyone had a good weekend and good luck to any other Monday weighers xx

Back again!
So, i managed to reach my Target of 11 stone in June 2012. After this point i stopped using Minimins and although i still roughly followed the SW plan, i became less and less strict and have gained 11lbs in 5 months.
My wedding is getting closer (July 2013) and i would love to be 10st 10lbs for the day. I've decided to start back on SW now, even though i'm sure it will be very difficult over Christmas - plus my birthday is December too! So i'm giving myself quite a long time to lose just over a stone. I think it's going to be much harder than last time, because i have a lot of weddings next year which means a lot of Hen parties, and a lot of drinking! I don't want to deny myself of a good time on special occasions, so i'm going to try and find a healthy balance and lose the wait slowly and sensibly. I'm going to try and increase the amount i exercise, to tone up and become fitter and healthier too. All starts tonight with my first Zumba class!
Wish me luck xx
