Course we've all been there it's hard because you still need to have a life! I was really bad last week for a few days my gran came to visit so we ended up out for coffee and cake then went out for her fave fish and chips, can't take my own salad and tbh I didn't want to you have to let go and...

Good luck fingers crossed for fab loss

On reflection I really have behaved badly recently on this plan not so much bad foods but wanting to eat so many Hebs for some reason, I've been craving weetabix and muesli recently and that's kinda what I've been bingeing on. I'm going to change things and have little or no syns from now on and...

Course your eating like a normal person, who do you think buys cheesecakes! Normal people. I'm a sucker for cheesecake so don't worry and don't beat your self up your back on track already just stick to low syns and increase your SUPERFREE before weigh in

Thanks Hun

Gained 2lbs blaaahhhh annoying but it was to be expected after all my eating haha

Success express basically goes like this: meals are 2/3 SF and 1/3 free so reverse from a normal day. Snack on SF only and you can have 1 or 2 of your HE's. Any syns must be taken to have the highest syn value for example if you have low fat super noodles you have to take highest value which is...

Haha my determination didn't last long this morning...feeling so fed up I had a hot cross bun extra cereal a hot chocolate then shared a bowl of chips whilst out with family. My gran arriving has just totally blown me off track because it's the first time I've seen family in months and I'm so...

Thanks Hun. Had a word with myself and I've realised that nothing tastes as good as getting to target will feel plus nothing ever tastes as good to make my ibs hangover from chocolate worth it the next day. Grim headaches and stomach pains so back on it today!! EE BREAKFAST apple, yogurt...

I struggle to lose or maintain without having to constantly be watching....I can look at a cake and gain 4lbs. I've realised that since going on the pill in my late teens when at college my appetite increased and so did my weight. I've been on it long enough now, time for a break so just...

Five years and numerous hosp visits and doctors and specialists and milk was the culprit for me

Magnum ice cream down the hatch, I need a talking to

Ahh that's good using your syns in a variety of things so you don't feel deprived :) I try not to eat much dairy except choc as it does my ibs no good so I often skip HEA don't worry! Looks good, good luck to you :) I do mainly do EE too and green red is a little harder for me I like my carbs haha

Yeh I agree, go and then you will get re focused for this week x

How you feeling today Hun?

Awww honey I just wana give you a big hug, don't worry about being behind a little bit now for your target you've still ages plus even if your out by like 2lbs when it does come round the thing to celebrate is how close you are instead of what weight you were last birthday so don't get yourself...

Bluuuerrrgghhh star week is looming and I just want to eat everything in sight!! Just had 2 big bowls of muesli for no reason....but I guess it's better than bingeing on worse foods JUST SO HUNGRY

LOL good luck sounds like torture. But that's why I like gym classes, when I'm in the gym I'm like sod it I give up whereas in a class you can't walk out so you work harder

Hi there, how you doing? Do you go to group or at doing it alone? Here re to sub to your diary :)

Was a lb off when I weighed before my island trip this weekend. However I have synned so will probs gain next weekend when I get weighed. Tried to be good but then the cheese came out, no alcohol tho, then it was ice cream and steak sandwich today woooops. I've burnt 650cal do 22km bike ride...

1lb off pleaseeee thanks

7lbs please :)

Are you doing it from home or at group? If you have access to online look it up I know some are less than ten syns for 350g serves!

I'd have the steak with jacket pot no butter salad no dressing and just syn like 2 or 3 for any potential oil used and make sure you trim the fat

Where's the feb challenge at, I get weighed tomorrow so not in this months challenge I'll declare it on the new forum tomorrow :)

Yeh a few people have been caught out by things it's so bad isn't it! Especially if it's Tesco finest it will be loaded with sugar! I check the syns in everything I'm obsessed haha

Busy day in work then cooking all afternoon ready for our camping island trip. Determined to be on plan were leaving so early so got a massive banana fort he boat ride and tuna pasta salad for lunch then massive BBQ feast but all SW friendly....wholemeal roll, SW burger, chicken, potato salad...

Have you synned it up...might not even be bad some things at the Chinese are reasonably synned!

Pudding rice should be free

You can have 4 slices of 400g for two hex b if your on a red green day so it's not too much but if you had your weetabix too it would be synned. Do you have online access? Make sure you check out all yogurts am d things as some fat free ones can still be high in syns x

Yeh free foods are pasta, rice potatoes, lean meats, eggs, beans etc and then SUPERFREE is fruit and veg minus tinned fruit and minus starchy veg such as sweetcorn peas and beans. You musty fill a third of your plate with SUPERFREE at each meal to stop you from over loading on free foods. For...

Yum thanks for the pic shall look out for it

Loveeeee muesli with fruit and yog. Yum breakfast

Hi menu looks good but I do have a few tips....use all of your HEB as it's intended to provide you with enough fibre to boost your weightloss and it's part of the plan. Wholemeal pitta can be used but I think only the ww ones I'm not sure. Also only tuna in brine or spring water is free and tuna...

Looks good so far the only thing I don't know is the Tesco slim bar for HEB as far as I know it's only alpen lights, them aldi bars, chewy delights and the SW hifi bars that make the list for HEB so check that out

I've done some red days, tuna on a wholemeal roll because you have two B's if you have cereal for breakfast you can still use this one, chicken salad, tuna salad, soups are fine for red days too if you leave the beans and potato out. For tea, I've started doing carrot chips, a tip from someone...

Well done Hun you're doing well. You finding it easy to stick to still and enjoying your food? Good luck for another week

I don't have this issue as my mum was always on ww and my boyfriend eats what I make. But well done you for doing your own thing and sticking to this plan. Ignore the comments and think of how great it will be when you can say 'I'm at target now' to him while he eats his cheese and white bread...

Thanks, you enjoy your trip too :) so hard isn't it to avoid the restaurants when your away!

Haha enjoy your epic food day Stevie, and well done for staying on plan when things went abit wrong this morning, just shows that SW is a healthy life style change, can still grab on the go without losing your hard work! I know what it's like trying to avoid the pan au chocs haha! Well done on...

Hi, diary looks good. I'm a law graduate, welcome to the club. Hope you're last year is going well and hope it's not too challenging slimming as a student! I did this previously and lost 1.5stone but it's bloody hard when at uni so well done you. Look forward to reading your diary

I seriously doubt you will have it Hun as the weeing with diabetes comes from excessive thirst and only having 1.5l clearly doesn't show excessive thirst! Don't worry about it, it seems quite common due to high water foods!

Yeh it's just so frustrating because my losses will brill in the uk! Can't wait to get back in June to normality haha! Aussie day today so clearly off plan. Syns galore. Right back to it tomorrow :)

Yes it is a symptom for diabetes but among others....I've had loads of tests nothing showed up and people make jokes about how much I pee. Don't worry but if it does continues see the doc

Hmmm sounds like me but I tend to drink 3l plus a few green teAs but then again I live in 30c plus. I have to stop drinking any form of fluids atleast an hour before bed

Ok I've dusted myself off, long day in work in the heat didn't reach for a single bad item. Will be having tomorrow off as it's Australia Day going for breakfast In the morning then picnic on the beach and fireworks at night so completely off plan day! Then im raring to go come Monday morning...

I'm blaming being in a hot country, surely this is why it's no longer working. Just had a mini binge, only on 2 extra weetabix hahaha I was mad Ands till felt hungry so had second bowl. As far as binges go it's quite amusing, green day today anyway so it can be my second HEB

Yeh I write everything down! I'm living in a hot country at the moment I'm blaming the heat haha

STS devastated!! 2nd time this month for NO reason :(

I've STS and I'm absolutely gutted. Just short of crying my eyes out. Ive been good, I've been having syns, I've been planning things out, I've wrote everything down, I've been snacking on SUPERFREE, I've drank loads!! I wouldn't mind if I had been off plan for a few cheeky meals but I haven't...

Why don't you make them with HEB porridge allowance instead. Smash is a tweak but if not done often it should be fine

Ahh it's rubbish isn't when it's down to mother natures fault. It like you said it's a STS not a gain so it will show a good loss on the scales next week :) have a good weekend

Yeh the headache left but left me bloated instead wahhhh going to drink lots of water today! Thanks Hun hope you're well x

My fave thing on a buffet hahaha takes me back to my childhood!

Never made it but all sounds free as long as your synning/using milk from your HEA. Enjoy

Well how are you making it? Don't be alarmed Hun there are lots of things free on SW are yummy

The 500ml ones are like 15 syns

Hey there food diary..... Feeling in a good mood but bloated like hell, the fairy needs to come before wi tomorrow. hope everyone has had a good weekend and looking forward to the weekend, I certainly am. No gym today but was working 8-4 running around. friday is delivery day at my work and...

You get healthy extras....so 2 slices of nimble of other 400g loaf would be or one slice wholemeal from an 800g or a 60g wholemeal roll or you could have 2 alpen light bars as a HEB or cereal. For HEA Option you can pick milk or cheese, one of HEB and one HEA per day. Bananas area free, in fact...

Yeh brill time! I love going to wen key so sad I'm missing such a good season, 8 hours ahead here too so I've Been able to watch 2 games all season when they KO at 12.45 at home, otherwise it's sitting up til 3am haha! I'm back in June so will be raring to go for next season, has seriously...

Using jars often won't be easy on SW as they are high in syns unfortunately. But for something like a curry of chilli you just turn a tin of chopped toms upside down in your pan add your chilli powder or curry powder and hey presto it's free, just as quick as opening a jar and cheaper as...

I don't fill my plate with a third when I'm making curry as I add so much onion peppers and tinned tomatoes that I feel it's enough

I would have to guess that to preserve it for so long as cans do have long shelf life they will have a hell of a lot more sugar than fresh fruit. Just a guess

I'm not sure I've never been a smoker so can't advise on that. Try and get some SUPERFREE in than them beg packs try a bowl of fruit for variety and just eat plenty, don't go hungry and I'm sure it will even out. The gains can't go on forever if it is down to quitting smoking so I'm sure it will...

Looking from your diary I'd say try and mix things up abit, as your body can get complacent and sometimes needs new food to shock into burning quicker. For example switch round your breakfasts why not try beans and omlette one day, and your lunches too try something different each day for a week...

Tea was delish, all mixed up together with soy sauce, felt like I'd come home from the Chinese takeway! Can't beat a good fakeaway when your feeling rubbish. Hoping this migraine vacates soon, in work tomorrow in the heat and I don't fancy feeling like this. Really nervous for Saturday morning...

Hi, you're in the food diary section so are you going to post your food diary so we can have a look and advise? Sometimes writing it all down including every single mouthful helps as you may have slipped a few things in or forgot to count a couple of things. Exercise may causes you to retain...

30 day shred, gets very repetitive with the background music but you could add your own. She scares me too, feel like she's watching me. Also, I used to do the weather girl of GMtV claire nasir I think she's called, lost like 3 inches on my waist in one week from hers and only did the first...

Still got the munchies, got a migraine rumbling and for some reason I feel like I have low blood sugars and can pass out when I get them, probs a silent diabetic or something :/ reached for the free yogurt with some cinnamon swirled in but was naughty and added some muesli which isn't on the HEB...

It's a personal choice you just have to find out what works for you

I've been adding lemon juice freshly squeezed over and it's been delish! You can just have the lightest mayo only half syn isn't it

Yeh I should try that. I froze a muller once, what a disaster

Haha I always dump things that are naughty before I got to the till. Nothing tastes as good as slimming world food haha

Well done Hun! I can relate to this today.....boyfriend wanted an ice cream and for us to go to this Italian ice cream shop down in the marina, it's bloody amazing! I said yeh we could go so I started packing a fruit salad into a Tupperware box, got there....he had his ice cream I had my fruit...

Oh Frankie and bennies wow, you did well to avoid the fries they are heavenly in there!

It's great! Making a nice SW curry now for team just looked forward to that and realised I do t need the taste of iced ream when I have yummy curry to look forward to. also, I have a dairy allergy so should start acting like it which is another reason I needed to say no haha! I'm not violently...

Hi, hope work hasn't been too grim! Nice to sit down and have a good catch up with everyone's diaries isn't it, always on the look out for motivation and peoples recipes haha

Bloody Mother Nature, she's been annoying everyone this week! Hopefully your weigh in will still be good :) enjoy your London trip

Subway salad chicken or turkey without dressing are free or head to the pub earlier and choose a jacket potato. Sandwiches are always full of mayo and the bread is usually granary not wholemeal so high in syns!

I'm sure it's fine! Half a bag is a lot so I doubt anyone is going to say you need to use a whole bag each time! It's all about controlling your free food so you don't overfill your plate, so even if the spinach has wilted just don't overfill the plate still and it's fine

Do to drink too much water it weighs a lot when it's in our bodies, I weighed myself once first thing and then had a pint of water and I was like 3lb heavier within ten mins! Love how you've got all them syns solely for choc, you sound just like me haha! Enjoy you deserve it especially when...

It's the heat on holiday that stops me from wanting alcohol, saying that I did get drunk often on my last AI holiday and spent a few nights throwing up wooopsie hahaahahaa

Kopparburg a were not worth it, been knocked for six today, ibs had massive flare up. Think I need to face facts that I'm turning into my mother (who can no longer tolerate a sip of wine) alcohol is is banned, hopefully this may aid the weight loss haha wanted to do a red day today but my...

It can be hard when you're eating out and you don't want to miss out, does the chippie do Chinese as instead you could have ordered boiled rice with a lower syn dish such as chicken with mushroom , or a black bean dish which are less than 10 syns I think and boiled rice would be free. Anyway...

I lost 2lb after a STS in my second week. Star week too so really pleased. Let's keep at it :)

Don't worry just draw a line under it and cut back for the next few days on syns. Start using left overs or prepare your lunch in advance so you don't use so many syns

Everyone's different I only have 1 but some people have like 3. One person I know had 6 and kept gaining so it's what works for you. Remember there is a difference between free and syn free, try to snack on free and SUPERFREE more than syn free products if poss. Hope this helps x

So I had 3 kopparburg what's that..like what 45syns wooooopsie but... on the way home cousin gets maccies I have weetabix yey

Starving Marvin today!! Usually I. Scared of snacking on syn free instead of SUPERFREE but after munching through 2 carrots the fat free super noodles had to come out!! Still thinking about my tea though, can't wait for a good carb sesh!! Must sts have been my gym session this morning was...

Woohoooo fab loss after a blow out maybe the wine secretly helps and should be free on SW haha

2lbs off please

2lbs off wanted more as I STS. Last week but considering it's been star week plus I was naughty at football and had a few wedges and two diet cokes which bloated me. I'll be happy with that :) woke ken up feeling dreadful was a late night and I'm up early to run around in 38c heat :( think it...

It was lovely, love a good tuna pasta thanks!! On another note, I've been converting my weight from kg into stones and lbs because my scales only show kg but I've been converting it wrong so I actually don't know how much I weigh hahaha going to sort it out before weigh in tomorrow to see...

Ahh good! No you've synned them or using free ones so shouldn't be affecting your losses just some ideas to mix it up abit or try taking pasta salads or something! I tend to lose more if I change things every day so have different breakfast every couple days to keep my metabolism guessing haha...

Fabulous gym session if I do say so, feeling the burn. Came home and made a huge tuna pasta salad, so satisfied! Looking forward to making my curry now, love cooking at the moment

Don't cry Hun I know how you feel!! Are you drinking enough water? And there are little tweaks you can make to ensure a good loss next week. Try the butterfly chicken at nandos instead as someone has suggested, make sure you have a third SUPERFREE, double check the onion yogurt as only the...

Oooh I've never frozen them before might give that a go! Helps feeling more students having your oven chips and ready meals to pop in the microwave haha. Hope it's going well for you :)

What's mix2max never heard of it? Take it they call it something else now is it the same as SE?

excited for today's menu. It includes PASTA wooohoooo. I eat it all the time, but since trying out red days and making my quiche and soup this week I haven't had it once, I'm feeling better for it as it is a bloater but isn't it just fab when you can have pasta on a plan like SW. Loving it...

Haha I'm always hungry looking through everyone's diaries on here!! On another note...do not know what sk broccoli means stupid auto correct

Hi Hun had a look through, all looks good but just checking are you synning everything? Think your butter in your mash would be a few syns! Your plan looks good for your long day at college today so stick with it and think how good you'll feel on the scales if you power through :) good luck

Hi Hun popping over to say hi, hope it's going well!! I weigh in once a week on a Saturday morning (so I can have a naughty sat night) I'm a self confessed syn saver, not all of them but probes save about 40 for My sat wine and treats it keeps me sane. I try not to weigh in more because I...

Exactly so wouldn't worry loads of people drink it and it wouldn't be on the free list otherwise, but I guess it might be fizzy drinks that bloat you so just see how it makes you feel after you have it next time :)

Ahhhh Stevie that's you're a star for that idea thanks Hun will give that a go! Hi hi there pix, welcome and good luck on your journey! Do you have a diary? If so I shall pop over and say hello! Doing mini goals are such a good idea more likely to stay on track than aiming for huge goals...

I'm feeling better this afternoon I've had a red day and iim not bloated anymore at all so feeling good!! Enjoyed my my red day but thank god for extra HEB or I would have starved. I feel like it's similar to success express a little bit, as your obviously not having any carbs at meals so I'm...

Well Mother Nature arrived for me too, migraine and bloat I've drank 3l of water today plus 3 green teas and surprisingly have been able to go to the loo so when people say drink more they obviously mean it!! No choc cravings yet and I'm not going to have any in my syns as that's when I get a...

Massive well done girls!! Glad you've posted this thread as there are so many critics around at the moment who are sacking the plan off without giving it a proper go!!

I was a student and I graduated in July last year....library tips from me - tuna pasta salad or chicken pasta salad - fruit salad and yogurt - punnet of grapes to pick at whilst studying - curly wurly bar (6syns) as an afternoon pick me up when sugars were low and I hit my afternoon revision...

I get migraines, bloat, terrible painful constipation and stomach cramps. The chocolate cravings I can cope with these days but all I want to do is lie in bed in a darkened room! Can't even think about the gym!! I hate it, no winder I take my pill back to back some months to avoid this situation!

See, my star week brain has already began!! Didn't even know what date it was put Tuesday 13th on my diary!!!

Star week has reared it's ugly head!! Possibly means a lot less exercise because I always feel so grim! Going to the gym today though for a good session before the bloat and migraines turn up! Monday 12H JANUARY 2014 RED DAY BREAKFAST 2 weetabix (HEB) soy milk (HEA) apple strawberries...

Diet coke on a sat night isn't going to affect your weight loss unless your having loads of it every day!! If it helps you keep on track when your out at the pub then do it, I drink diet coke when I'm out like once or twice a week and it's fine. It will just be natural fluctuations so just take...

Yeh I. Only having one HEA but having two HEB as if I have milk and cheese I won't lose, it's just the way I am sadly booo haha

Agreed!

Last time I was on holiday I just had loads of fresh fruit in morning salads and meats and stuff for lunch loads of watermelon then just enjoyed myself each evening and tried to swim in the pool loads! Then you can enjoy each evening but try to be good in the day x

Honestly would not weigh yourself morning after a takeway! That won't be a real gain at all, it will be gone tomorrow happens every time I have an Indian or alcohol it's just bloat x

Frozen berries, frozen veg, batch cook, I get cheap dried pasta in big packs and use tinned toms with garlic and herbs to make own sauces quick easy and cheap

Well done!! What at made you think differently and eat more on plan this weekend? Such a good step well done Hun

6 weeks could be a stone though, just take little steps don't put too much pressure on yourself to lose loads by your holiday, I always do and it gets me nowhere. Just think half at a time. Well done on not over doing the syns on curry night!!

Yeh I'm enjoying the double HE today on my green day.....who doesn't love a wholemeal roll warmed up with soup! Wont be be able to do many red days though I'm a carb monster I love pasta and rice with my spag bols chillis curry etc etc couldn't be one of these people who has curry with a side...

May be a big breaki but it's allowed on SW! Good luck

Crisis averted I have a blender!! Soooo this weeks plan is to do green today red tomorrow couple of EE days then possibly red and green again for end of the week. Just going to mix it up and see what happens. I couldn't do red permenantly as my love for pasta far far far outweighs any desire for...

Well the soup went out the window, smells and tastes great just can't bloody blend it as it's broke!! Hoping to borrow my aunties haha

Yes you really should try to have a third with everything, after all SW is about healthy eating and just a packet super noodles or pasta n sauce isn't exactly nutritional on they're own, but combined with a third of veggies of salad it as a hea thy balance meal and free on plan x

Very random soup, bing it all in was my method of choice... tomatoes, broccoli, spinach, carrot, red pepper, onion, coriander, basil, black pepper shall see how it turns out haha quiche ingredients..... ham, onion, tomatoes, red pepper, mushrooms, cottage cheese 3x eggs topped with more tomatoes

Last night was nice, wasn't too synful and I enjoyed myself. Back to it today, no time to mope on the STS this week I need to crack on and use my motivation to fuel the weight loss. Up early..... Batch of soup simmering away had no stock cubes though so used loads so seasoning and hoping for the...

Fab loss well done! Yeh hard floor is best I once weighed myself on carpet and I'd lost four stone in 5 mins hahaha

I saw that thread and it made me LOL but I agree we get too complacent. However this week I STS and I had been back to basics so upset but going to keep at it as I'm blaming the new gym regime haha! I'm making a. Batch of soup and quiche for this weeks lunches but other than that I have no...

Ooh and enjoy your curry! Can't beat a good curry!

I know I'm the same with alcohol these days. My mum can sniff red wine and be in bed with a migraine for days never mind sip it and she used to be like me when she was a student but ever since I've graduated I seem to no longer be able to handle it. I'm fine on the night but now even one glass...

So after giving myself a talking to I'm no longer in a mood and hope that the scales will show great things next week. I'm out tonight for boyfriends birthday, probably won't drink as even one drink gives me hellish hangovers now. Will be having meal though but it's one night and I haven't used...

STS for me. Absolutely gutted :(

STS WHAAAATTTT?????? im so angry I almost cried on the scales, I've worked so hard this week and I've done SO MUCH exercise! Literally makes me want to sack this plan off and be miserable on atkins or something! But I'm going to stick to it because I know it works but I just don't understand.

Well done on being so planned out for your evening! Nothing worse than someone wafting takeway scents in your direction when you're hungry!! Have a nice evening Hun x

There's a syn sub forum Hun if you go there someone will be able to help you! As a rule 20 cal = 1 syn unless it has a free food allowance. Do you have online access as you can look up syns there

Shouldn't be encouraging you but they are such a fab use of syns plus it's good to mix things up haha

Going to buy some hot cross buns? Enjoy ;)

I've just bought some mini ones they were half price and froze them oooops having one tomorrow after I am weighed! Not too high in syns for a mini one so I'm very excited! Ahhh yes yes salt, and exercise makes me retain water so bad it's not fair. I've walked so much this week in the heat I'm...

Walked to work 1.5miles this morning. Will not be doing this tomorrow as forecast 44c. work was interesting this morning, new cake line came in so tasters were everywhere. I had one teaspoon of a chocolate cake and it was divine, butt hen I felt gross so I made myself a pot of green tea, one to...

Work out the syns in them none of them will be free by the sounds of it. If you have access to life online type on the product and it will tell you or alternatively use the calculator x

Meh star week is almost upon me, which is when I get 'grouchy and hungry' according to the boyfriend haha! I've just come back from the gym and I'm starving seriously don't know why! Can't be bothered to cook so it's a cod fillet from the freezer with a side of veg and baked beans :/ ...

We'll done fab result!!

Oh I've heard the new paranormal is really good!

Thanks :)

Yeh I eat the spag Bol with the wooden spoon as it simmers

Hi here to sub! Well done on your weight loss so far you've done fab. Enjoy the nandos it's my fave! Love how the sauces are so low in syns

Good luck x

Must admit tea was amazing!! Pots went well I love garlic. just nipped out for milk....hot cross bun season is upon us. I did chant 'MUST NOT BUY HOT CROSS BUNS' to myself round the shop

May make this next week looks good

Lol at eating cold out the dish before bed hahaha you make me laugh!!

So tired today working in this heat is so draining, so is the fact that I decided to walk there and back!! Almost 3 mile round trip in 34c but it was along the beach path so I must not complain, before I know the only place I'll be walking is back in the north west UK in the rain. Waitressing...

Yeh just the evening couple of drinks and tea out I don't go crazy and have like 2 bottles of wine Chocolate plus takeway or anything! I go gym Sunday mornings and draw a line under it so I'm ready for week ahead. Just my way of having syns I know some people like to have them daily others...

Im like this I think well I've ruined it already so might as well carry on but now I look forward to having planned when I'm going to flexible syn. You can also look up recipes like the fakeaways, I love SW chips with steak sandwich on my HEB loads of fried onions, curries etc etc. some people...

20lbs for me

I love them all, they're like a little family. Love the banter between Penelope and Morgan

Criminal minds addict I've watched every season twice haha

I wouldn't worry about the weetabix as your using your Heathy extras so that's already portion controlled so not a massive need for you to have SUPERFREE but you had banana anyway so that's good. The rest looks fine but yeh I agree with switching to a lighter mayo x

I can't function on weekends without treat night I'm afraid so usually have Saturday night off plan but I don't use many syns during the week, not advising you to do this as SW do say to use syns daily but it works for me x

behaving like a bottomless pit today I think!! Feel like I've eaten loads but it's all on plan. Gym was a lazy effort though, 30mins of cardio but not much else wooopsie Tuesday 7th January 2014 EE BREAKFAST wholemeal bread (HEB) cheese and mushroom omelette made with 2 eggs mushrooms and RF...

I hate being bloated on WI day!! You'll probs have a good one on the scales next week keep at it!

I'm not sure on amounts to use, but remember to syn it as oxo cubes are free but gravy is not x

Haha made me laugh that you were whooping to yourself I get like this when I'm proud of myself too! I read somewhere in the daily mail last week that you should say things like 'sorry I don't eat that' because the person offering it you won't be alarmed whereas when you say 'sorry I'm on a diet'...

I do cardio with a lot weight training included too, at first I couldn't think of anything worse than venturing over to the 'mens' side of the gym where all the weights are and all the boys staring at themselves in the mirror haha but I went with boyfriend he showed me how to use them all and I...

I ended up binning some left over chocs as I knew I would just eat them! I've felt loads better since Christmas can't believe how much the plan just goes out the window. my boyfriend sat with crisps and dip last night and I'm pleased to report I had my curly wurly carrot sticks and diet coke...

You can see all the recipes on the SW website without being a member so have a look on there and then obviously there is this site. Frozen veg and frozen berries will be cheap and they always have a muller light offer on x

A lot will have changed such as the lists of healthy extras and syns. Also there is the extra easy plan now. I'd have a nosy round this site to help you

Tesco light choices is quite low

I have days like this where I feel like a bottomless pit haha I was like this last night and I just grabbed some carrot sticks and went to bed before I did any damage x

Looking good! Think wether spoons and nandos are the best for eating out on this plan! Good luck for your weigh in x

Haha I know I keep seeing it allover the news 'the UK braces for storms' I look forward to my return in June then!

I know it's madness isn't it!! Scares me how technically you could have one everyday haha obviously we wouldn't be very slim though. off out for a few drinks to watch the sunset on the beach for boyfriends birthday, he's taking beers crisps and dip, I'm taking diet coke and a curly wurly haha

Love your diary you have entertained me for ten mins while I had a read through haha! Fantastic results Hun x

I can't be trusted so I don't have them In but if you have them in for your kids why not have someone in the family hide them and get you one out per day or something and leave it on the side so you know your within your syns and can only have what they have got out for you. Sounds extreme I...

Good gym session today I always feel so much better after exercise! It's my boyfriends birthday today...since we had to go out for tea last night he doesn't want to do anything and requested spag Bol for dinner perfect!! Monday 6th January 2014 EE breakfast 2 weetabix (HEB) soy milk (HEA)...

I think it's finding what is right for you. They are there if you need them is what SW tell people. Some days I don't need them. For me if I bought a bag of treat size choc bars with the intent of eating one a day with my daily syns I'd eat them all there and then because I'm just like that. I...

Well done for staying on plan especially when your out with so many people it's easy to think oh sod it I'll just have what they're having! Nandos is brill isn't it can still enjoy it without it being a heavy greasy off plan meal! X

I know everyone says it but just try to not weigh yourself until your official day, get someone to hide the,. My boyfriend puts mine somewhere and gets them out every Saturday morning for me and then I know what my weight is once a week. Our body's fluctuate with water etc and it depends if you...

Most people have that first week big loss, I lost 8lbs one week, so one on here lost 10lbs this week I think it's just your body being shocked into healthy eating again espesh after the Christmas period. Don't question it just enjoy it, let it motivate you x

Well today started brilliantly, good gym session. Ended up being a semi bad day, could have been terrible but I did remain in control just annoyed that I had to go off plan. Had my menu all set, come home to Cook dinner and house mate has about 25 people over, couldn't even get to the fridge...

Thanks! Only a good Loss due to it being my Christmas weight coming back off haha!

I really wouldn't worry about it when your using your hex especially with weetabix the idea of a 1/3 SF is so that you don't over fill your plate with free food, with 2 weetabix you can't exactly do that can you so it's already portion controlled. But well done with the banana anyway

2 is fine Hun, someone at my old group used to have 6 and started sts so obviously she was advised to cut them down. It's just a about seeing what works for you. Yogurt is also supposed to be very good for weight loss anyway so it's better than having something naughty
