What I do in the evening to stop me snacking is drink a can of zero fizzy pop through a straw, just by sipping it seems to help me!
I think your right you can feel if you've lost weight, so good luck for tom xx

 

[tinyshoes]

Thanks Ugg! I might try the can of pop thing when I feel the need to snack next ...

 

[tinyshoes]

Friday 3rd April - well I've lost 1 lb this week which I'm a little disappointed with tbh with staying the same last week and I 'feel' like I've lost weight this week, but it's only a lb! I know it's better than nothing but I've got a week off after Easter and the best I can hope for that week is a sts as I won't 100% stick to plan while I'm off work! Was hoping to lose a bit more before then IN CASE i have a small gain! Only 4/5 weeks til my wedding dress fitting now....but I'm going to have a high point day (sort of day off diet) today as I REALLY fancy proper pizza tonight it's my fave food ever and hopefully it will get the 'I want to eat naughty food syndrome' that I've had this week out of my system!! I'll stay in control though and not completely pig out but I won't know my total points used today...back on to it tomorrow!

Oatsosimple Apple & Blueberry (i've missed them!) 2
100ml ss milk 1

Congratulations on your loss, Do you take your measurements? You may have lost Inches! A lot of people relax on weigh day, me being one of them and as long as your back on it the day after. The siping pop really helps for me so give it a try.

Have a good day, and a yummy pizza!
Your doing really well the weight is going downwards. xx

Monday 6th April - Hmm, I'm not going to reflect too much on the weekend but it's probably the worst I've had diet-wise since I started WW! Fri night had planned a pizza and that's what I had, Saturday did well all day had a Chinese but I think I was still within my allowance, then had half a bag of Cadbury mini eggs!! Sunday had a small '99' ice cream then dinner out at MIL's so couldn't really point it then last night gave in to more Cadbury's Mini eggs! So not great but hey hopefully I can limit the damage by sticking to it the rest of the week!

Am going to do the 'maintenance plan' so will be aiming for 25 points a day max which is my normal daily allowance plus 6 points I think that's how the maintenance plan works! Have just got to remember to keep counting and make good choices while I am off work! Anyway back to this week, it's WI tomorrow and am just hoping for a sts this week due to my very bad weekend! Another low point day today so am aiming for just 16 points.

Good luck for WI tomorrow. Have a great time off work, will you be able to do more exercise? You may not need those extra points.
I'm allowing myself one medium sized egg over easter, If I eat it in one day so be it, if it lasts over several I'm not going to count point's for it. I'll also be hoping for a sts.
Pop in tomorrow see how WI goes, fingers crossed for you x

 

[nuneczka]

Good luck for tomorrow WI hun. 10 days off from work sounds fab, hope you have a nice rest and enjoy 25points allowance xx

Thanks! I will try not to eat 25 points every day but I thought it might help me stay in control of what I am eating a little bit rather than just stopping counting for a week! Will report on my WI tomorrow sometime when I get chance.

Thanks, yeah I should have more time to do some exercise whilst I'm off work so I will TRY and make myself do some every day, that might help to balance any naughty easter eggs that get the better of me!

Friday 10th April - well to my surprise I've actually lost 1.5lbs this week! So alternating my points between low and normal for the last few days has obviously cancelled out my naughty weekend! I've been very lucky! Aiming for a max of 25 points every day this week (normal allowance 19 points) as trying to do the maintenance plan while I am off work in order to make myself keep counting points and not completely go off the rails and not realise how much I'm eating. I might go over this a couple of days or under it even but 25 max is my aim.....

Breakfast:
2 x weetabix with 150ml ss milk 3

Lunch:
70g mackerel 3
2 baby new potatoes 0.5
2 tbsp light coleslaw 1

Snack:
Morrisons custard doughnut 3.5
3 x milk tray chocs 3
Hot cross bun with butter 4.5

Dinner:
1/3 small Morrisons spicy chicken pizza 9?

Total points used today: 28.5 - a little bit over but it's WI day, also the pizza points are estimated so might be more or less....and we did quite a lot of walking around shops....

Happy Easter to you too! Hopefully should be ok, it's just whether I can stick to maintenance points while I'm off work and with so many Easter Eggs......! Have had a good day today though and am slightly under my max points!
