Tinyshoes diary - countdown to wedding dress fitting!

[tinyshoes]

Saturday 21st March - not a GREAT day diet-wise but have had worse!! Although I did buy a few things for our honeymoon already! Some shoes I can wear in the sea when paddling and some nice smart flip flops for evening wear (restaurants/bars are all sand floors so can't wear heels!), ooh and some size 12 linen trousers which i thought would be too tight to wear yet but would slim into them and they fit perfectly now so that was great!! Was aiming for less than 23 points...

Breakfast:
Oatsosimple raspberry 2

Lunch:
Homemade oven chips 2
Mini bacon and cheese pastry lattice 3
6 tbsp baked beans 2

Snack:
Tiniest of tiny pieces of choc cake (my mum's mother's day cake, had to have some) 3?

Dinner (leftover chinese and fancied a bit of pizza too! Strange combination but I love mixed meals with a bit of everything!):
1/2 WW chicken fajita pizza 2.5
4 homemade oven chips 0.5
1/4 portion fried rice 2
1/4 portion plain chow mein 1
1/2 portion bali chicken 2.5

Snack:
Bag of maltesers 3.5
Lg Glass Lambrini light 1

Total points used today: 25! Ok so it could have been better but could have been worse - was meant to be going out for lunch but didn't so would have had ALOT more points if I had! 25 would be my 'maintenance plan' points so hopefully not too much damage done!

Sunday 22nd March - not a bad day, felt a bit tired, no exercise done again! Naughty!

Breakfast:
3 x 50/50 crustless bread 2
2 x medium poached eggs 3

Lunch (not really very hungry):

Snack (should have had a proper lunch!):
WW cheese bites 1
WW choc biscuits 1.5

Dinner:
WW sweet chilli chicken ready meal 4.5
15g prawn crackers 1.5
Dessert: WW vanilla and belgian choc mousse 2

Total points used today: 19/19!! Pleased with that as wasn't really hungry at lunch then had a snack attack later on but luckily managed to stop at 2 things both of which were WW products so that was good!

It doesn't harm having a time out from exercise, anyhow if you sts it'll make you work harder for next week. Good luck for WI tom xx

 

[tinyshoes]

Friday 27th March - sts this week :sigh: but I didn't feel like I had lost any and I have done NO exercise this week, also I think I maybe need to change what I am eating a little bit (get over my Oatsosimple addiction would be the first step!) so I will try and vary my food a bit more, and how many points I am using for each meal as they tend to be the same each day, maybe my body is getting used to it now....ah well just hope I can be fairly good over the weekend now, there is nothing like a sts when you haven't been REALLY naughty to knock the motivation out of you!

20g Tesco value muesli 1

Snack:
WW black forest bar 1.5

Lunch:

Dinner:

Snack:

None - went out to see a friend and ended up staying for a few hours, but on the plus side that meant I stuck to my points and didn't sit in and eat!!

Drink:
3 x decaf coffee
3 x NAS squash
1 x tea

Total points used today: 19/19 not upping my points allowance today like I normally do on a Friday

Oh, sorry you STS this week. I think it is good idea to do some changes. Tracey been advised by leader to change breakfast and add variety to her meals and after a week the scale was moving back down again! Hope this week is going be better for you!

I need to tackle my oatsosimple addiction as well! xx

 

[tinyshoes]

Yeah I agree I think I need to make some changes, will be hard trying to wean myself off the Oatsosimple though! Haha! Thanks for the encouragement, I just need to make sure I don't fall off the wagon this weekend in rebellion! How do you manage at weekends to be good?

Weekend wasn't too bad, found out my wedding dress is coming first week in May so will be having first fitting shortly after that so I REALLY need to get the scales moving again this week! Would love to lose another half a stone before then that would take me down to the lowest weight I got to when I last did WW 4 years ago. But I have got a week off work during April so I won't lose any that week but will try and aim for a sts so I don't have to repair any damage the following week! Here's my weekend's diary:

Thanks I just hope I'm not imagining that I feel as if I've lost a bit this week! Had a sneaky peek on the scales today and they are lower than last Fri but I know that doesn't mean anything until 'WI' day! 'See you' on Friday!
