Thread: Diary of Dreamings

I have the same problem with finding low point snacks! Grapes & cherries & tyrells popcorn or medcalfes skinny topcorn (both 3pp a bag) - they are my nibbles for now... am always on the hunt for alternatives!
Good luck with the move hun, do you have to move far?

This diet costs an absolute FORTUNE! Whoever said healthy eating comes cheap was lying :P I need soooo much fruit and it's so pricey! Wonder what the damage of pretzel sticks is? Can't be *too* bad surely?

It's pretty far yeah, 260 miles I think :/ I'm used to moving around though having been at uni + done a year in Germany. I just REALLY hope that the decision to change my diet and start career as a teacher can be combined and one won't suffer at the hands of the other...

Ooooooh i knowww! I dread to think how much i've spent on cherries this month!! Cheepy apples & bananas just don't float my boat!

Aw i hope the move goes well & you enjoy your new job path - i'm a major stress eater so can't really give any advice! However if it's a positive environment you go into it may actually help your eating routine so fingers crossed!

Hi Dreamings

Your diary is lovely, good luck with all you have on your plate at the mo!!

Great loss and very inspirational

Thanks guys

Hmm, mixed day today, found some tops i loved but are now too big for me in smaller sizes in the sale at Peacocks, so that was pretty good. I now own a size 14 top that fits me! It's baggy as I have it in a 16 now but it doesn't look tight or anything.

Bad news is definitely food, had an estimating day:

Breakfast:
Toasted teacake from cafe (definitely spread not butter on it but quite a lot), was quite big so am thinking 10?

Lunch:
BK chilli chicken wrap (7?)
BK med fries (10? Although I gave my sister a good handful would rather overpoint)
Random WW tomato biscuit thing: 1

Dinner:
Tesco light choices chicken curry (10- could be slightly less but dont keep boxes so I do 10 each)
Skinless small jerk chicken drumstick (3?)
Finger roll + spread (6?)

Pud:
2x meringue (3)
Ww yog (1)

So thats an estimate of all dailies (36) and 15 weeklies :/ I was going to use less weeklies this week as used them all last week so need to keep to no more than another 15...

Glad I've admitted the food though.

Glad you feel better for writing on here what you ate
Think that's a big step for a lot of us - just being honest about our food thinking of starting one myself

Well its not a real 14! Still working on being a proper size 16 yet but still its all in the right direction I guess... x

Need to add 2pp to total still, never snack late (usually asleep!) but had ww crackers + spread about half an hour ago. Hmpf. Still, the crackers are awesome.

Quick update from me on my phone, will probably write a longer post on the computer at some point!

Went to drayton manor today, overate a bit of course. But I think (hope) the excess was possibly countered by the walking from the train station, and in the park. Hmm.

Saw my nan this evening for the first time since christmas, and she said she noticed how much weight I'd lost! Very happy as she hadn't seen me for a while before I turned up to see her at my heaviest, and I can tell she was REALLY biting her tongue not to say anything!!

Miraculously I've lost 2lb... even factoring in the 1lb difference between weighing in pyjamas and nothing that's still a loss! How that happened I'll never know but I'm not complaining!

Well done

Congrats on your loss, 2lbs is great!

RIGHT, settled into my new place now (and loving it) so no excuses. Starting again in the morning. I shall return bright and early with my new starting weight.

Hope you have a good day! X
