Thank you!! Feeling really proud of myself this week It's definitely the best week I've had in a long time and I can happily say I've been 100% on plan. I'm trying not to focus too much on the numbers this week, as I don't want to be disappointed when I step on the scales like I was a few weeks back. I'm just really happy to have gotten the control back!

Krispy Kreme's are lush!! Had them years ago when we were in America, but they've kinda taken the UK by storm now! Some of them are really high, but there are quite a few you can get which are 15 Syns or less, so you could have one and still be within your Syns for the day. Love the idea of getting one for Christmas Eve - I might have to do the same. They do a really cute snowman doughnut that I've been dying to try - it comes up as 280 calories on My Fitness Pal, so I'm guessing it's 14 Syns. Not too bad at all really! xx

14 syns is good!! They're a nice size so you're getting a bargain really lol yeh I'm not following plan on xmas eve and xmas day, so one for a treat on xmas eve will be lovely I could have one on weigh in night as I always go upto 15 on weigh in, but it would be hard to get to tesco on that day as I'm always at work on wednesdays lol a girl at my group said she bought a box of 12 the other week but the kids didn't like them!! So she ended up binging on about 5 lol bless her things like this are so irresistable xx

Good morning diary. Slightly depressed at the fact it's Monday again already, AND we have snow boohoo. Don't get me wrong, I love snow when I'm in the house all comfy cosy and don't have to go anywhere, but it's just an inconvenience when I've got to travel to work in it. Bleurghh. Thankfully there's not too much, so if it doesn't snow again it should be gone before long.

Anyway, enough negativity! This week has been such a good week - it's definitely the best I've had in a long while. I'm really pleased that I managed to stick to my guns and stop in this weekend, and actually I really enjoyed it. It's been great getting the control back this week, and it will be interesting to see what the scales say tomorrow. I'd love 2lb off - the 1.5lb I gained last week and an extra half lb to get me that little bit closer to my Christmas Wish. But we will see!

I'm having another Green day today...

Morning Stevie!

Grrrrr to snow I hate hate hate driving in the snow and ice - even skidded on the way to work this morning, nothing severe, but scary nonetheless!

I see you got the caramel coffee too! Have you tried it yet? I got the vanilla one yesterday too but a real disappointment wil try it again and hope maybe I just didnt make it well?

Anyway, have a happy Monday! xx

 

[xJoanneJJx]

Well done on your good weekend! xx

Morning hun! You be careful driving, it's really awful out there. I got the bus this morning as I really hate driving in it.

I LOVE the caramel coffee, even more so than the hazelnut! It's definitely my new favourite - my mam managed to get it in Asda at the weekend, I think it was half price. I'm not going to bother trying the vanilla one. I'm not too keen on the sound of it, it sounds too sickly to me. But I will be making the caramel and hazelnut flavours a regular thing. Made up with milk they taste so naughty, like a proper latte from Starbucks or Nero's! Yummy

Hope your WI goes well later today. Looking forward to seeing how you've done xx

Morning diary. Tuesday today, so you know what that means...Weigh day!! For me, this week was all about getting the control back, which I have done. So what the scales say tonight is not too important. That being said, I would love to lose 2lb just to get rid of last weeks gain plus a little extra. But we will see. No matter what, I am really proud of myself this week, and I intend to be on form again next week and right up until Christmas. I will get my wish, even if it kills me :giggle:

Anyway, I'll be back on later tonight to report my result. Good luck for everyone else getting weighed today xx

 

[Mrs.S.]

Good luck lovely xx am sure you'll do fine xx

 

[Princess_Stevie]

Good luck lovely xx am sure you'll do fine xx

Thank you hun. This has been my best week for quite a while. I've felt so much healthier and just generally back in control, so a loss tonight would just be a bonus! The icing on the (SW!) cake shall we say

Hope you're feeling much better soon. There is a nasty bug going around at the moment which I suspect you have caught. Big hugs xx

 

[xJoanneJJx]

Good luck tonight, fingers crossed! xx

 

[Princess_Stevie]

Good luck tonight, fingers crossed! xx
