Hi everyone,
Well yesterday was a day from hell. It started off ok with a really good brekkie and healthy snacks but then I went to work and on the way lost my purse, the lead to 2 hours of stress panic and finally I got in touch with the tram office and it had been handed in there.
I had to go all the way to the tram depot and finally got my purse back, at this stage I was stressed, hungry and late for work, I ended up eating from Gregg's
I then had a shift from hell at work and everything went from bad to worse, I was 2 hours late, the restaurant was rammed and I was feeling crap after eating the Greggs.

I finally got home at 9.30pm and let my BF talk me into a Chinese to cheer me up at I had already blown the day

So This is what I ate

Sunday
Brekkie - Bowl of Fruit Salad
Lunch - Greggs Sausage Roll (18) and Greggs Cheese and Bacon Wrap (pulled all fat off bacon) (HXA & 10 Syns) with Grapes and Carrot Batons.
Tea - Duck and Pancakes (14 1/2) Prawn Toast (14) 1/2 Sweet and Sour Chicken (4) Chips (17 1/2)

Total = 78 Syns

Thanks, it was a hell of a day
I'm sticking to as few syns as possible until weigh-in None if possible, today I'm on 3
Will update what I've eaten soon

Sorry you had a tough day, you have got back on plan though and that's something to be proud. Drink lots of water, do a bit extra exercise and you may be surprised to see you havn't done much damage if any!

I'm trying to just think of it as a blip. I got up today and rather than let it get me down I would use it to motivate me
I went and joined the Gym and paid for 3 month membership to make sure I keep going, it is literally across the street so I have no excuse.

Today was a busy day but I stayed on plan and kept my Syns low, my boyfriend took me to Toby Carvery and then to the cinema

Monday
Brekkie - Apple
Lunch - Toby Cavery - Roast Pork and Roast Beef, 1/3 plate of Carrots, Peas, New Pots 1 Roast Pot (1 1/2 syns), Gravy (1 syn) and Mint Sauce (1/2 syn)
Tea - 2 Wholemeal Toast (HXB) with 3 Cheese Triangles on top (HXA) Mixed Fruit Salad.

Total 3 Syns

I will claw back this week

Just remembered that I hadn't updated you on my exercise plan
Tomorrow I have my induction to my new gym, its at 11 and I plan to use the gym for a hour after that
My new target will be to go to the gym or the pool 4 times a week for a hour at a time
They also run classes so I'm hoping to maybe join one of them and really kick this weigh loss up a gear until xmas.

Xmas is a really big thing for my family, my parents are divorced and have been since before I can remember so I have always almost had 2 xmas's and now with my OH family get together I have 3
but the thing is on my dads side everyone is really skinny and my cousins who I am always compared with are really beautiful. I come from a big family but there are 3 of us all similar ages.
Gemma is 23, beautiful a size 6/8, a professional footballer in America and the golden girl of the family
Sami is 21 same as me and has long blonde hair and is really sweet and innocent looking and a size 8/10.
and I'm always compared to them, my nana, bless her, she loves me to pieces but I don't think she understands what she says some times she has always said from me being about 8 that Gemma was beautiful and talented, Sami was beautiful and sweet and I was smart and had a bubbly personality. I know she was trying to be nice but you can see how that made me feel, I have always been told I was the brains of the family and my family are always telling me i need to loss weigh in not so subtle ways, like my aunty buying my zumba for xmas last year and my nana always mentioning that if you wait too long to lose weight you end up with lose skin

Anyways enough of me ranting, basically I want everyone to notice me for good reasons this year

Hi Everyone,
Thank to everyone that's popping in, commenting and subscribing

Today I've had a strange day, I haven't felt right since I got up this morning :/
Anyways, I had my induction to the gym and then did a extra 30 mins on top of that, breaking my self in slowly
I then had food as I didn't want a full stomach at the gym
I then had a nap and ended up sleeping for ages, had to get up, get ready and go to some training in town then went to the supermarket and came home, had tea and now I'm watching TV

What I ate today -
Wednesday
Brekkie - Cup of Tea 2 sweetener (Dash of milk as 1/3 of HXA)
Lunch - Cold Sandwich Beef, SW Chips, Mushy Peas, Cherry Tomatos, Red Peppers and 2 slice of wholemeal bread (HXB)
Tea - Stir fry containing King Prawns, loads of Veg and noodles. 2 Tablespoon of Sweet chilli Dip mixed in (2 Syns)
Snack - 2 Babybell Light (2/3 of HXA)

Tomorrows weigh-in and I feel crap about it, I feel like I went wrong on Sunday and it has affected the rest of the week
I just felt weird all week, I can't wait for tomorrow so I can draw a line in the sand, get my weigh-in and know where I stand ether way, then move on, I've felt like I can't move on until weigh-in because I don't know what damage I did

Hi Amy, I know exactly what you mean about moving on, I used to get so impatient for weigh in day when I'd been a bit naughty just so I could have a new syns total to work back from! Good on you for counting your syns on your bad day, I wouldn't have been brave enough to do that, I would have just wrote it off and probably kidded myself that it hadn't been as much! I am subscribing to your diary, your posts are entertaining I have my own diary - confessions of a food-a-holic, feel free to share any tips you have with me as well, I'd really appreciate it! Good luck chick xx
