    19 stone to 18?

    i find this a problem too, i suffer from IBS/anxiety in the mornings/daytime and dont eat. If i can i just try to eat something as plain as possible; sliced meat, bread, and certainly no spices or hot food :(

    19 stone to 18?

    i know i shouldn't weigh myself on a non weigh day but i did, and today i have lost the 4lb or so i put on in 2 days. :( So i'm guessing it was just water retention! i think i would be a little more saner if my weight didn't shoot up and down like it does.

    Emowyn's food diary

    Here goes, mainly for me to keep track. I've put on 5lbs in a week... hmm. hoping it's water but hopefully if it goes bad again I may be able to see why. Exercised quite a bit last week, but i know it's not muscle gain :) Following Extra Easy plan, I cook for the whole family.

    Common SW misconceptions put right.

    Re heating/mashing fruit, i was told that if you limit it to one piece (ie a serving you would eat raw) then you are ok. But I guess if you do this and gain, then stop :)

    Sunday Weighers... or is it only me?

    Booo I put back on the 3lbs I lost last week . I have stuck to the plan when I ate but was so ill most of the week I didn't eat during the days. I was doing exercise on my bike too, so I did hope for better. Oh well. Back to normal hopefully this week.

    Sunday Weighers... or is it only me?

    Grats Gail. Hope year two is fab. I'm off on holiday at the end of October to New Orleans. Where everything seems to be fried in butter and dipped in cream !!! Think I will be majorly off plan. Eek. I'll try to be good but I expect a bit of a gain when I get back.

    Interesting article on Emotional eating

    I can't get my head around this... If natural hunger comes on gradually but you are already feeling the effects of emotional hunger and are ignoring it how do you know when you are really hungry? I probably still be waiting when I passed out?

    I'm just starting my weight loss properly and I currently weight 19st 4 lb. I thought an ideal/dream weight for me would be 13 stone, over a 6 stone drop but at 13st I would still be obese. Not a happy moment. I should according to the chart aim for 10st.... that seems so crazy. I can't even...

    How to lose 7lb in 7 days

    If it's just a bit you need to get down and it's around your waist area you could try a back support wrap, like an ankle bandage/support you can find them in the sport injury sections at places like boots and superdrug. I have used this before and 'appeared' to have a flat area. Just don't do it...

    Good Snacks to eat with little syns?

    My weakness is crisps, Tonight I sliced a potato and laid them out on a silicone lined baking tray then dusted with salt. Hey presto 'cheat crisps'. Not bad and I assumed no sins, I didn't even use fry-light.

    Whats for tea tonight?

    I don't sorry but if you mix a beef oxo, hot water and a little instant mash to thicken it. It's free on EE (i' ve heard). Tried it on Sunday and it did the job. Just thought I'd share for next time.
