Marie's big fat food diary :)

[MarieDK]

I think this could be really useful - get me looking properly at what I have been eating and then popping what I lost each week down. Hope it might help someone else too

I have been doing SW for 10 weeks, lost 2st 1lb so far. Hoping to be somewhere near 11st for Christmas and nearer 10st for my birthday June 2015.

I weigh in on a Wednesday so my week runs Weds to Weds - will also pop my syns and any body magic in there
