Slim for Summer Diary!!!

[sarahg123]

Hmmm big push didnt happen. Had a busy week and indulged at my friends wedding. Buffet is my downfall fact, and how much does your resolve waver after a few glasses of wine! Not to worry - I still lost a pound To be honest, in the last few weeks I have been a little more relaxed and used up all my syns some days and im still losing so maybe I can relax and enjoy the journey a bit more now!

 

[sarahg123]

oh dear me, do i have bad food cravings or what! Just having a little read on here to remind me not to do it. Its just the sun is shining and all I can think is wouldnt it be lovely to hit the beer garden after work for a few ciders/wine and then have a chinese for tea - chips, chicken balls and all! Must remained focused i know but sometimes its difficult isnt it. Why oh why cant I be one of these people that just eat what they want when they want!

Reminder to self : I am 19lbs down, only 18 to go! Not worth ruining it this stage is it...

 

[sarahg123]

I did not remain focused! I think the sunshine makes me a bit reckless or something. Had three glasses of wine and a massive chinese on friday and guess tried to pull it back for the rest of the weekend so was good for the remainder atleast! Still me thinks the damage is done

No weigh in tomorrow as im going to alton towers for the day so wont make it back in time. Im not going to weigh in at home as dont trust the scales at my house, if you move them slightly around the room you can gain or lose 3 pounds lol!

Must get off my bum and do some exercise and also give up smoking to help with the excercise! Wonder if the no smoking will play havoc with my eating plan!

 

[sarahg123]

oh dear, was completely off plan yesterday - had KFC at Alton Towers, resisted sweets and chocs but still disapointing. I seem to have slipped up more over the last week or 2 so back on it completely today. I am lucky so far as have not gained but I feel bloated and a bit yuk (TOTM doesnt help i guess) so really need to concentrate and stick to the plan else weigh in next week will not be pleasant!

I havent done a food diary for over a month now as I have got complacent a little so going to treat today as a new start.

Im going to start logging my food in here, think its the best way to stick to it!

Hello Sarah

Hope you don't mind me popping into your diary.

How many syns do you have a day? If you calculated those by the whole week and took away the ones you had yest, you'd still have some left for the rest of the week, so all is not undone, just adapt your other day's syns .

Have a good day. xx

 

[sarahg123]

Hello,

Thanks for popping in

You are right! I will do just that and should be easily able to stay within 70. I have used 50 so far includuing my 1.5 today so that leaves me with 20 for sat, sun and mon which should be easy as really I generally dont have more than 5 a day anyway. Just annoyed with myself as was determined to be 100% but guess even with last night can still be within syns
