The really slow loss team!

So now I have really confused myself as I can't work out if Wednesday is my day one for syn counting and it is Wednesday through Tuesday or

If it is Tuesday through to Monday

I weigh in on a Tuesday so any ideas please ?

I take my syns from my WI day - so as I weigh on a Monday, syns go Mon-Sun. So with a WI day of Tuesday I'd take Tues - Mon.

Although some people take it from the day AFTER WI!!! So would use Weds-Tues.

Confused? Excellent - I love to do that to people :8855:

Sounds like my idea of fun. Possibly with a Baileys thrown into the Disaronno.

I have developed a real love of Baileys Biscotti..... but I am doing my best to resist it :eek:

I will confess to having a small bottle in my jeans pocket over the weekend - just as a medicinal "toot" for my cold you understand ;)

It's all coming out now, isn't it......... :break_diet:

Welcome Shelster - as Lou said 7 lbs in 8 weeks is good going for us tortoises

Over the whole 151 weeks it took me to get to target . . .
*** drum roll required here please ***

Tsch Tsch Lou - Naughty girl. :8855: 2nds aren't good for you. And strictly speaking you shouldn't do it as you can end up eating past the full stage!

yes, I am definately a slow loser, most i ever managed was 4lb ifirst week, I have been doing extra easy for almost a year now i have lost 2st 7lb but it has gone very slow and i gained 1lb last week, i am going to try alternating with the green days just to see if a change about in food may help as i do get in a bit of a routine with having the same foods all the time, on a positive note new muller greek yoghurts are lovely and only half a syn....

I know Lou finds greens agree with her, but I'm just the opposite! I have to do mostly red days and cut out as many carbs as possible. Otherwise I don't lose.
 
Lisa - sorry you have been struggling but good to see your mojo resurfacing.

I know you said writing it down doesn't help so try this.

Get you SW books out - or browse online - and go right back to absolute basics. If you want or need food treats - lots do but I somehow just take mine in alcohol :D - then start to plan them in.

Plan a whole weeks worth of meals keeping some days low in syns so that you can use them up at the weekend for nights out etc. I know SW say you shouldn't do this but loads of people do - I do - and although it might slow weight loss down a bit it doesn't stop it.

:hug99: chica. You can do this.
 
Ooh my head hurts. Red wine- damn you!

Went to a friends for tea but had a ridiculous amount of wine and was wrecked by 10. Don't remember getting home and am sporting a hangover to boot.

Pom- I didn't have seconds cos when I warmed it up it's stuck to the pan and burnt lol I never normally have seconds but with soup or stew I do cos I make it full of super free so it's just like having fruit as a snack really and I only have it of hungry x

Ah thank you Pom :) Todays the day I'm starting fresh & I'm feeling good already. I've got salad for lunch & lots of fruit to scack on.

Think I'll take you advice & read through all my SW magazines. About a year ago I ordered about 20 off someone on eBay, I love the success stories :)

Also feeling I want to get back into regular workouts, won't have time today but planning to tomorrow so will find time to fit some in x

Lol I think I passed out. I only drank a bottle of wine and with food I never get that drunk off 1 bottle so a bit confused today. I've been throwing up and have a massive headache it's put me right off

Ah no :( Maybe it was stronger than you thought? I have to be careful with wine, it's the only drink that gets to me. 3 glasses & I'll be sick, not nice.

When do you get married Hun? I do this thing when im not being 100% of looking up the syn value for something
Then convince myself that I didn't have the last crumb of it so can knock a couple of syns off ha ha, how silly lol. I lost almost 2 and a half stone in less than a year so I'm sure you can get to where you want to
Be for your wedding x

I keep my own food diary too. That way if I have a particularly good/bad week I can look over what I've eaten to see if I know what affected it.
