Morning diary! Feeling wide awake and full of energy this morning, must be all the healthy food doing me good 
Plan for today is green. I am off out to an Italian for tea tonight so will be saving one of each healthy extras and all of my syns for that!
(B): 60g wholemeal toast (hex b 1), banana
(L): jacket potato, beans, salad
(S): tangerines, banana, small latte (hex a 1)
(D): thinking one of these two dishes:
- Fusilli pasta tossed in olive oil, garlic, chilli, sun dried tomatoes and fresh asparagus, topped with rocket and parmesan cheese OR
- Spaghetti aglio e olio with dried chilli flakes, parsley, olive oil, chopped garlic, seasoning and grated Parmesan cheese
Which do you think will be better? As I said I will be saving all of my syns for today and a hex a and a hex b, do you think that should cover it?

ooohhh both sounds lush! I'd probably go for the first one as to me it sounds more filling.
I'm back on it like a rocket today after saturday night!
That's what I thought too - and more superfree!
While I'm feeling positive and in the zone today I thought I would break my goals down so I always have something to work towards!
Goal 1 - get into the 9's (5lbs loss - 9st 13lbs)
Goal 2 - get 1/2 stone award (7lbs loss - 9st 11lbs)
Goal 3 - lose 10lbs (10lb loss - 9st 8lbs)
Goal 4 - get club 10 and 1 stone award - (14lbs loss - 9st 4lbs)
Goal 5 - get into the 8's (19lbs loss - 8st 13lbs)
Goal 6 - TARGET! (20lbs loss - 8st 12lbs)
I can't wait to weigh in on Wednesday and see how close I am to reaching my first goal!

Ooh good luck
hopefully you'll still lose something but if * week is mean to you then you'll have a great loss next week! xxMorning! Weigh day today and feeling a tad bit disheartened as only lost 1lb. I know its in the right direction but when I have done SW in the past I have always had bigger losses in my first week. Star week is due to begin tomorrow though so I'm hoping that has had a bit of a knock on effect. I have lost inches though so I am pleased about that! 1.5 inches off my waist, 1.5 inches off my hips and half an inch off each of my thighs and arms - I think that must have been all of the body magic Still feeling determined even though I have got a few things that will take me off plan this week - a wedding on Saturday and a meal out to a tapas restaurant on Monday evening. However I am gonna stick to plan the rest of the week and maybe even throw in a fast day on Tuesday to get rid of any post-naughtiness bloat! Going to try a few red days this week too as I have been relying on carbs quite a bit for lunch.
Plan for today:
RED
(B): 60g wholemeal toast with marmite (hex b 1), coffee with dash of milk (1/2 hex a 1), banana
(L): subway chicken salad with sweet onion sauce (2), jalapenos, carrots, onion, tomatoes and peppers
(D): steak, halloumi, fried veg, salad
(S): tangerines, cheese curls (3), Special K chewy bar (hex b)
Total syns = 5

Hi there I am also slimming for New York as my husband is taking me there for my 40th.
I have never been before so I am so excited. Have you been before ?
Technically I am maintaining but I would love to be at the lowest end of my target when I go.
Your starting weight is lower then my target weight and we are the same height !!

Hello! That's exciting when are you going? I am lucky enough to have been twice before - once with my family when I was younger and me and my bf went in December last year. We absolutely LOVED it so are going back for my birthday this year
it's definitely a good weight loss goal as there are ao many yummy doughnuts and burgers there that I would be bulging out of my jeans otherwise!
