The cake is stunning x very very classy and beautiful, and an amazing price!!!! Gutting about your weigh in, so frustrating when you know you have been 100%, it has to be water weight Hun, impossible to be anything else. I bet you see the results this week from the hard work you have put in x

Ah Hun days like that suck!! I am an emotional eater also, and I mean every emotion, sad, lonely, happy etc etc. I hope you are feeling a slightly bit better x

4 pints should be fine, but Susie is right about feeling unwell if not eating but drinking to much, it dilutes your natural salts, like potassium, sodium etc and could lead to collapse, but if you are getting the 1200 calories a day you will be just fine. It's more dangerous for people doing...

Courgette boats sound divine! Have you had before?? May use that recipe I am doing weight watchers but think it could be low in points. Well done on the ecig I have used for ages and really found it useful in giving up, mind I am buying the liquid that taste of varying desserts! At the mo using...

Have a lovely meal. And what an amazing present!!!! Lucky girl x

I thought it was your starter!! I was waiting for the pic of the main course!! X

It was homemade so used the recipe builder in the weight watcher site. I guess it's kinda like a tikka masala. Used my own spices with fresh coriander, ginger and garlic with low fat natural yogurt used 1/2 a pack of sainsburys brown basmati micro rice. It was really filling and so little points.

Well tried to listen again this afternoon and dropped back off to sleep!!! Maybe my insomnia is linked to not relaxing enough. Mind I still think all the night shifts I work has an effect. So anyway after my nana nap that ended at 3pm I decided to make a curry, I had used no points at this...

Wow just wow!!! Congratulations it's amazing when you are rewarded for the effort you put into weight loss so pleased for you. And so listening to Paul again!!!

I think you should have it Hun, you are doing weight watchers as no food is not allowed, as long as you point it's not a failure. You have said you will make sensible choices so crack on. Xx and enjoy

Ah bless these men are really super large children! My son will be 17 next month, yesterday I asked him to help peel potatoes, he did not a problem but he had no clue!! I realise it's my fault I have never asked him before! I guess it's a mother with her boys thing, I have to sort it out now, or...

Finally got to sleep, become a minimins stalker last night, reading lots of diaries etc etc, I come across a women who had the Paul McKenna gastric band hypnosis app, so I downloaded it!!!! I was sleeping within 5 mins so don't think it will have fully worked!! But going to give it a shot x if...

Thought I would say hi. Last night I was not able to sleep so was reading through your diary, want to say well done first you have been doing so well!! Anyway I read about the hypnotic gastric band and decided to give it a go. So at 5 this morning I cwtched in and listened, to be honest I was...

Ah Hun keep your chin up, you are so so young and the moisturising will have helped I promise. Now is the time to look online at before and afters, get some inspiration from others who's journey has completed. The human body is amazing. It's horrid looking at ones physical self, it's a shame...

Eek it's the other way around with me!! Jon is borderline OCD with keeping the house tidy, where as I am the messy one!! I have had the are you really leaving that there look more than once! Luckily he is easy going but it's early days still!

Can't sleep missing Jon already. He called to say he was in Istanbul waiting for his flight to Iraq then texted to say he has landed safely, will relax when I know he is back in the rig and safe!!!! Here goes another 4 weeks of bloody worrying!! Food today Breakfast nothing felt to upset but...

Ah scarlet I would be the same with the mask I know I could not use. It's an odd sensation it's like as if my airway for a second or so collapses, it's worse if lying on my back and it's eases if push my head back and extend my neck, I am not worried as such mainly because I have an idea of...

Well today is super sad I said goodbye to Jon for 4 weeks!! I normally book to work the day he goes back and the next few days after to keep my mind of it. But I have annual leave this week. Feel determined to do the best I can in the next 4 weeks, I would ideally like to be a stone lighter, I...

I obsessively weigh every day when on weight watchers!! It's insane as when I am not I refuse to get on the scales my mind thinks if I can't see weight gain it's not happening x The korma sounds lush, do you make yourself??? Want a curry now.

Wine sounds amazing right now!!!! Watching my son plays 5 a side in this pouring rain is no fun!!!! Freezing cold wet and miserable!! This is part of the stop sitting on the sofa all night action plan! I might enjoy it in the summer x even the dog is looking miserable x

Think you are right! I was within my points, and have decided to just focus on that, not worry about what I eat at the moment. I am classed as morbidly obese, so getting any amount of weight off will help my health. If I stop losing I will then readdress what food make up my points x x

I have tried to get it out of my head but it's there, don't think we will be good friends. Sat here now watching a film drinking wine and eating the last Xmas left overs. Talking about future plans I have to pinch myself sometimes as can't believe how lucky I have been!! Going to be gutted on...

Hey glad you are back in the wagon its a blinking bumpy road!!! I am being a typical starting Monday person and trying to ram the last goodies down before they are thrown!!! X

Well done on giving up the cigs. I quit using an ecig they where fantastic. Still use it daily but a lot less. The only advice I was given was start high on the nicotine strength so you give yourself every chance of quitting. Having a puff on a rather nice blueberry flavour as I type. X

Hey Claire I have decided to give it a proper shot this time!! Glad to see you are doing so well!! Hope all good with you will be stealing some of your recipe ideas again x

He just said the hairy bikers one looks good!!!! Will have to go looking tomorrow. I am so happy with my ex husband when I mentioned dieting he would roll his eyes and tell me he was eating rabbit food as he was not fat, now I know what it's like to feel supported and encouraged. Another little...

It's time to get back into weight loss!!! I have truly fallen off the wagon (was only on it for 3 weeks the shame) I got caught up in going on dates and eating out. Well Christmas Day my boyfriend of only 6 months (3 of those he has worked away) proposed!!!! I know it sounds crazy and insane but...

Well done on being 100% for so long!! Hoping you are rewarded on the scales later. X

Ahhhhhh welsh cakes, I know 100% if I cooked them I would eat them! And they look bloody brilliant x nothing like a hot one of the bake stone x

I dry fry mushrooms slowly add garlic clove crushed when they are cooked I add 4pp worth of weight watchers cream and crumble in a oxo vegetable stock cube, let the cream thicken. It's super tasty. I love it with steak as it feels like a super naughty sauce. X Tonight I am staying over his...

Again food sounding amazing!!!! If my head was not totally into weight watchers I would be so tempted by slimming world with your menus x

Well done on another 100% day. It sounds sad but I am getting a smug satisfaction every time I get a 100% day, long may it continue x

I can't remember the last time I bought something just because I like it, I pick a top to hide all the wobbly bits! And bottoms that don't dig in the flabby bits! I also can't wait for new clothes! Mind I think I have every size from 18-26 in my wardrobe. X

Another 100% day for me. Breakfast crumpets x 2 5pp Lurpak 4pp I can't eat crumpets with anything other than butter, I know they where 9pp but they where worth every point. Lunch Quorn 4pp Couscous 4 pp Peppers 0pp Feta 2pp Dinner another date night. I cooked this time, Sirloin steak 7pp...

Well done on your 3lbs!!!!! How can she say your portion sizes are to big??? You are losing and sticking to the points weight watcher recommends!!! The silly bint is basically saying the plan she is suppose to be an advocate for, and charging you good money for is wrong if your portion sizes are...

Ha no it was a extremely small boat, very very small. It was extremely busy down the bay, there was a four hour Que. to get on that massive ship! And it took forever to get out of the car park when coming home, I have never seen Cardiff bay so busy!! He is welsh, from Llandrindod Wells x but so...

No ask away! I had the most amazing time. He took me sailing!!! We drove to Cardiff bay he picked up a friends boat. We then went to penarth and had lunch. We then went around flat holm island. It was amazing. Something I would never ever do. We then went back to his house where he cooked...

I feel your pain with the seat belt extender, the last flight I had I just about managed to get the belt on! But it was so so tight, not only was it painful but when they come around to check I had to lift my belly up to prove it was on! I was then afraid to take it off I have never felt so...

Hope you are feeling much better today , and you are rewarded for sticking to plan. I also have pcos and have been warned that weight loss may be slower, I guess the only thing to get comfort from the more you lose the improved it gets. Or at least that's what my pcos nurse tells me in my early...

Well today was weigh in and I am 2 lb down!!! I am so pleased with that, I have hit my weekly points almost daily a cheeky 3 over one day and I have used every single weekly!!! Was hoping for a sts but did the weight loss dance instead!!!!

I had a wonderful evening. He was truly a gentleman. Nice funny witty conversation, just the right amount of things in common but a few differences to keep it interesting. We are meeting this afternoon, he said he has a surprise planned. He then offered to cook dinner this evening . So I...

Food looking great, your menus always sound amazing!!! Will try pro pointed a few of them x

Will pop a packet in my next shop. I also love cheese with mine!! But am liking pastrami and pickled cucumber slices with mustard. I used to always have cheese but have laid off recently. Mind I love cheese with everything! X

It's all new and rather exciting, he is lovely, I love the fact we talk about anything and everything for hours, there is no awkwardness it's great. So I have had my hair cut and styled. I have some new shoes, and lots of pro points to use tonight. Food for today Breakfast smoothie 2pp...

Friday night is def the night for some treats. What are the weight watcher bagels like??? I am a bagel addict yet 6pp can be steep before they are filled. And as my points go down it may be something to think about x

Loving the pics of your food! I am so so nosey it's nice to actually see what others are eating!! Glad you are feeling better after a kip, and well done on resisting the pub, I can't seem to not automatically get a glass of wine in one x

Tomorrow I have a date!!! It's only date no 3 even though it has been 2 months. He works away and is home tonight. Feeling super nervous which is a good sign yes!!!! It's the first time I have dated since my ex left, and we where together for 20 years! So I am mega rusty. Mind we have been...

Hey Hun the only other thing I have made is a chicken pie!! It was amazing. I love cooking but working nights and a weekend of socialising means me and my kitchen are not close at present! Mind it is sparkling x Your food again sounds great x well done on another good day x

God no I would have been the one who even if I felt full I would have hated to see plates go back with food on!!! I would have cleaned every plate then mopped the oil up with bread! I know it's not been my best day, but I am mega pleased with myself. I have a busy weekend planned mainly eating...

I have had a lovely day, went out with friends for lunch, went to a tapas bar. I tried my best to guess what the best dishes where but to be honest I am sure it was all cooked in oil. It was yummy and I also had 2 large glasses of white wine. I am bit going to attempt to point the meal, I would...

Glad you are feeling better, but if only feeling better after food you obviously needed to eat something, maybe try a little and often. It does sound like your blood sugars are low. Can't think of anything else that would make you feel better after food x x lots of rest I think

Today has been a funny old day, so tired and so hungry! But it's not hunger it's just the need to eat. Breakfast bowl of oats so simple 6pp this was 7am I then slept till 11.30, 2nd breakfast toast 5pp Lurpak 3pp Lunch at 3pm Bagel x 2!!! 12pp Pastrami 3pp Mayo 3pp Gherkin 0pp Mustard 0pp...

Good luck with weigh in tonight, and again the food sounds yummy. I will be checking out the pro-points of the magi bags, I have never used but they sound lovely. X

Checked out Leslie samsone that looks so do able!!! I will do the aqua aerobics but as I live in the middle of no where it's a trek to the pool, so that's not an option daily. I also hate wearing a swimsuit in public, but I am hoping that I am the heaviest anyone will see now. So it can only get...

Your last few days off sounds bliss!! Makes me want to head to the beach, mind not sure if my skip if the car will give the same feeling as relaxing in a camper x Good luck with getting online, I think we beat ourselves up way to hard about how we eat . Give ourselves strict timescales, feel...

Hey subscribing to your dairy, your food is looking yummy, I did the chicken fajitas last week, I used low fat sour cream, low low cheese and iceberg leaves for wraps, was stunned at how much I could have for a small amount of calories! It is def on my to do again list. Well done on your loss...

Hi just been reading through your diary , well done on the weight loss and all the cooking!! X food sounds great

I think we all become inpatient, I know since I started weight watchers, all of one week ago! I have tried to calculate how long it will take me to reach a weight where I would be happy . Then it depressed me thinking if how long it will take. I think I forget each pound I lose I will be happier...

Just home from my 5th night shift. I was suppose to be in for another today but it was overtime that has been cancelled. So a long weekend off. Looking forward to doing some cooking. I have been thinking of exercise. I have not partaken of any since I left school and gym was not compulsory. I...

Lunch was lovely. I had the chicken breast with rice, peas and sour cream. I did have a small amount of salad dressing with 0pp salad from the cart. I have worked it out to 18pp but going to count 20 just to be safe. I phoned weight watchers they where unsure what was going on, they state I...

I know after the first few weeks the weight loss slows down, but 3lb is great, I think we sometimes forget how heavy 3lb is. I may get a block of lard to keep in my fridge to remind me just how much. X

That's fantastic!!! Just checked and all the pro points where there! Even the salad bar so I can be safe in the knowledge that the scoop of honey mustard dressing can be counted.... I know I keep thinking I have put something down wrong!! God imagine the diet where the more weight you lose the...

Ah my son is back today, his first day in sixth form. It will be nice after these night shifts to clean and have a tidy house for a few hours a day!! Food looking good! Steak always a nice dinner x

I was on 49 a day, popped in my new weight it is now 51!!!!! Thought the iPhone app was playing up so checked online, still 51pp. I have checked I put the correct weights in etc. I know my points would have not gone up so should I drop by 1 or 2 pp?? Might give them a ring later. Looked on the...

I am extremely happy . I have list 7lbs!!!!!!!! Did a little dance after getting off the scales! The only issue is i typed the results into my weight watcher app and my points have gone up to 51????? Very confused so I checked on my laptop and it says 51 there also. I thought points went down...

Work has been rather busy and my food has been all over the place, boo to working nights, the only positive I have kept within my points. Weight in day is tomorrow. Excited to see if I have lost any!!!

I had to google cauliflower rice, it's a genius way to save a fair few points. Food for the next 6 days will be odd, I am working 6 night shifts . I norm eat lots of cakes, crisps, chocolate, pasties, pizza slices any thing that's bad for you really! Will be interesting to see how it goes. I...

Ah Hun how many points are bacon buttys ?? Can you not have with your daily allowance . I love the thought of having a cooked breakfast on weekends I am not working, I thought I worked it out to be lowish in points? I guess that's the joy of the 49 weeklies , you enjoyed chocolate and you are...

That looks amazing, I need some new recipe books! Is the hairy bikers one good?? X

I had noticed throughout your post the level of support is amazing. I decided on weight watchers, due to shift work I needed to have convenience. I needed strict guidelines and rules on the amount and a line I know I can't cross. I am doing it online at the mo again due to crazy hours at work...

Yay to the willpower waiting till the weekend for your bacon butty. I am only 3 days in but stunned at how flexible weight watchers seems. X

Well done on an 100% day! X

Today's food so far. Breakfast 2 poached eggs 4pp Mushrooms dry fried 0pp 2 slices brown bread 5pp I don't normally do breakfast, but pushed myself this morning, the biggest thing I noticed i felt more hungry at lunch time, guessing that makes sense as it got my metabolism going. Lunch...

A friend if mine is doing herbal life, she also posted a whopping 17lb weight loss in her first week!! I was also tempted especially as she is not a distributer, but I have such am unhealthy relationship with food as it is, I eat when happy as a treat , when sad I eat for comfort , I felt I...

Hi just read through your diary, as someone with a lot if wright to loss it's nice to know there are others out there with the same issues. One thing I picked up in how resilient you are, all the things you have had to deal with yet you carry on with determination. The before and after pics are...

I guess everyone is different, and like you said 3st8 is a lot of weight, god if someone said they could take that amount away now I would be jumping for joy.

Will have to check the low wine options out! I am going to Belgium the end of sept, will no doubt be bringing a few bottles home with me. I am partial to a gin and tonic also, mind my serving size is so not like the recommended for 2pp! I love you can have Chinese food with this plan, it seems...

It's crazy I have flirted with diets before but never really got stuck in. I think getting bank in the bandwagon is something I neglect to do, so well done you! I do think it would be nice not having to think about what to eat, cook etc. I started on Tuesday and it's all I can think about!

I am not sure how much weight to expect to lose weekly. A well meaning but tactless friend suggested as I was so big i would lose loads!! But after reading loads on this site 1-3lbs a week seems about the norm?? I have come to the conclusion I have a long journey ahead, I have not given myself a...

That's why I picked weight watchers, when at home not working I love to cook, bit always great results but I enjoy. When working I am so lazy in the kitchen I need convince all the way, weight watchers seems ideal. The best of both worlds! I don't blame you if you can't have cake on a birthday...

Think you Kayleigh, I have a feeling support will be required rather soon! I feel determined now but I imagine there will be many bumps on my journey x

Thanks scarlet, I guessed you should eat all of your points daily. Norm would have no issues or I would not be this size, but I did a classic of throwing all food out, doing a massive low fat food shop and now things I may have enjoyed before are a low fat version and a lot less points. Also I...

Wow fair play to you I really don't think I could do it! I did think about doing slim fast as I have just under half my body weight to shift!! But I think my will power would not hold up! X

A fantastic achievement well done x

Hi hope you don't mind me subscribing, I have been getting lots of yummy ideas from your diary. Hope all is well x

Thought I would say hi, I have read through your diary with interest, I also have a lot of daily pp and it was good to get some ideas on what I could eat. Sorry you are not feeling to good, but the hot squash sounds like it is doing the trick. I am with you an how great Wales is! Being a fellow...

So my journey started Tuesday, did the typical I will start after the bank holiday! I have a mammoth 49 points a day! Thought that was what everyone had until I looked here I saw some had 26! I am guessing my points go down with weight loss?? Tuesday Breakfast nothing bad and I will address...

So I have finally decided to address the elephant in the room (sadly to true to be funny) my weight. I have always been what kind people would refer to as curvy, the not so kind well less said the better. Last year my husband left to start a new life with another woman, and instead of being...
