Although I've stuck to my points this week and can feel I'm losing weight I'm not eating very healthily! I'm blaming the fact that its the school holidays and plan on doing much better next week! No breakfast today Lunch 6pp Wrap (3), el philly (1), ham (1), cheese snack (1) Tea 17pp...

Yeah feeling loads better today thanks! I've been car shopping today, and then out for tea and ice-cream! Breakfast 6pp Yoghurty bran flakes and skimmed milk Lunch 4pp Wrap (3) with el philly (1) Tea Chicken melt baguette so chicken, bbq sauce and cheese. I'm going to say 15pp...

Hi inmydreams! Urgh I hate finishing night shifts always feel a bit rubbish and hungover. Consequently I haven't had anything to eat today yet as I've spent most of the day lying around. Going to have pizza and garlic bread for tea and some Easter egg later on. 1/2 pizza express margherita...

Hi Sinead! It was nice Daisy, I took the skin off the sausages and broke them up so it looked more like mince than sausage really. Lovely shift last night, very busy but lovely! Food for yesterday: Breakfast - but at 5pm - 6pp Yoghurty bran flakes and skimmed milk At work...

They are so yummy!! And there's loads still in my house, in fact there's loads of chocolate in general in my house, hundreds of points worth! So my diary for yesterday did end up changing a bit because I decided to go to bed for a couple of hours on the afternoon! Lunch 7pp Ww pitta (3), EL...

Well I didn't make the cupcakes last night because when I worked out the points for them using ww recipe builder they're going to be about 10pp each :eek: so I thought the less time I have them hanging around the house the better! Will make them this afternoon instead. So last night ended up...

Thanks for the encouragement bulldogdaisy! How long have you been doing weightwatchers, and how is it going? I did walk to school yesterday so pleased with that. I didn't feel very hungry for tea so ended up having a wrap (3) with chocolate philly (2) and banana - yum! Then 2x digestive...

Well I've woken up feeling a bit slimmer this morning, so who knows what the scales will say tomorrow. I've done some more of my exercise DVD this morning, worked my butt off for the cardio bit but couldn't manage all of the abdo section today - too sore! The sun is shining today though so...

Oh dear! I feel a little bit like my life is conspiring against me being slim this week! I went to my Auntie's for tea last night. We had chicken and broccoli bake with new potatoes and veg, which wasn't too bad, I only had 2 potatoes and plenty of veg. But then dessert! Which was basically...

Well done that's great! You've pretty much gone from the size I am, to the size I want to be. So hopefully in 4-5 months I'll be in the same place you are now!

That's fantastic! What size jeans were you wearing when you started? I've noticed you eat a lot of quorn/veggie food and that it seems to be low in points, think I'll have a closer look next time I'm in the supermarket.

Thanks QueenOmi! A stone in 6 weeks definitely seems to be fairly average to start off with from looking at other people's signatures. I just can't wait to be under 14stone, I reckon its been a good 5 years since my weight has been 13st something! The people who I see in my day to day life now...

Wow you're doing so well!! Your diary is really good to read, it reminds me that I can eat 'normal food' rather than 'diet food', including treats, as long as I don't completely pig out, and still lose weight! :) Keep it up, you're definitely going to be skinny for that wedding in May!

Thanks bulldogdaisy, I definitely am! :) I did 40 minutes of Hannah Waterman's dvd, its quite good actually - for someone like me who never does any proper exercise! I always have to really motivate myself to do it but once I do I feel so much better afterwards, I even enjoy the achey feeling...

I've decided I need a new diary to go with my fresh start on WW. Before Christmas I lost a stone, fairly easily, in about 6 weeks. Since then I fell totally off the wagon and when I weighed in last Monday I was back up 14st 11lb and feeling very diasappointed with myself. :cry: :( I...

I'm back! :sigh: I'm really annoyed and disappointed with myself, my weight has crept back up to 14st 11lb. I put on 4lbs over Christmas, which was no big deal, I could have lost it again over the following couple of weeks, but since then I've eaten A LOT! I've had odd weeks where I've been...

Hmm I'm not doing too well with this food diary am I! To be honest I've been so busy I'm not doing very well with tracking either, just sticking to foods I know are low propoints. Weigh in on Friday and I was 14st 2.5lb :D I'm still really happy with how it is going and a few people are...

Thanks Brona! Well done on your recent losses! I'm still tracking and sticking to the plan, just been very busy so not been on here for a while. My Friday weigh in just gone I was 14st 4.5lb :-) I was 14st 4lb on the Thursday morning, but Thursday was a cake filled day, made some...

14st 7lb this morning :D Very happy with that, 1.5lb loss and I definitely haven't been on a diet this week! The scales briefly flashed to 14st 6, and I think if it hadn't been for the massive meal I had at Frankie and Benny's last night I might have had a 6 in my weight, but I'm not...

Morning, I haven't had time to come on here for the past couple of days. I ate loads on my nightshifts this week! As a consequence I have only 6 weekly propoints left! Today I am going shopping with my Auntie for birthday and Christmas presents for me, my Dad works abroad and has given her...

Aw sounds like you're having fun with your family! How are you finding the porridge?

I've just been to the supermarket and I was thinking at the till how obviously weightwatchers my trolley is! It included: Warburton's square wraps Extra light Philladelphia Curly Wurlys 2 good for you ready meals (to take to work) Fat free greek yoghurt Salt and vinegar snack a jacks Lots of...

So back to a normal-ish eating pattern today, although I'm back on nights tomorrow and Tuesday! No breakfast Lunch: Warburton's thin with philadelphia 4pp, banana, curly wurly 3pp Mid afternoon: small piece of mam's homemade lemon drizzle cake ?6pp Tea: fishcakes 9pp, mashed potato made...

I love this thread! :clap: A couple of compliments for me this week: My friend yesterday said my skin looked lovely, this is a big deal for me because I've struggled a lot with bad skin during the past few years, I was post nightshift and pre-menstrual as well so eating well seems to be...

How did your weigh in go Jay? I'm a midwife so I must be equally as mad! Thanks kagome75 I counted anything that I ate before sleeping as that days points, it seemed to work and I didn't go over my allowance so will stick with it for now. Back on nights Monday and Tuesday!

Food diary from Friday: Tea: Sausages and mushrooms in creamy mustard sauce with boiled rice 15pp This was very tasty and filling. Although I think I've eaten more sausages since strting ww than ever before! Middle of the night: Snack-a-jacks 3pp, banana, pasta ready meal 10pp, curly...

So some lovely men are looking after my poor little car - they even gave me a lift to work last night, how kind! And I've got a nice new C1 to drive for a few days, which is some sort of weird coincidence as I had been looking at getting one but wasn't sure about the engine size, I think the...

I think it worked out okay top_stuff, although my planned meals went out of the window yesterday because of some car issues! I ended up having breakfast and then not eating again until mid afternoon when I had 2 bagels and phildelphia, and then overnight I had another bagel and philadelphia (...

Omg I've had a horrible day :cry: Went to take my daughter to school this morning to find that overnight someone had scratched all of my car and punctured the tyres :mad: I'm really upset. So have spent most of my day on the phone and trying to work out what's the best thing to wrt insurance...

So night shift tonight, I've decided that everything I eat between now and going to bed tomorrow morning is going to be counted in todays points, and then from getting up tomorrow tea-time to going to bed on Saturday morning will be Friday's points. Then Saturday's points will start when I get...

I've been so bad today :break_diet: I've ate 18/49 weekly pp and around 30pp in total on crap food! I'm so disappointed in myself, I had been doing really well with just eating good, nutritious food. I already didn't feel like I'd have much of a loss this week as well :sigh: Breakfast...

Aww how lovely! Congratulations on your engagement :flowers: You look gorgeous in your pic! I'm the same height as you and I'd like to be a size 12 again, I'm currently a 16 and it seems so far away! I've set my goal weight at 12st 5lb as I was a comfy size 12 last time I was that weight...

Hello! Just been reading your diary, you're do so well to stay so motivated after not losing for a couple of weeks! I'm sure you will start to se results on the scales soon. xx

I was really hungry last night so had a Warburtons square wrap with tomato sauce, 25g light mozzarella and 1tbsp extra light philadelphia 6pp So the total for yesterday was 34pp + 4pp from my weeklies. I've just been to Sainsbury's to get some bacon medallions fo lunch and I stupidly bought...

Thanks for the encouraging words. Love the quotes in your signature marthamydear! Meals today :eating: Breakfast: frosted wheats with skimmed milk 6pp Dinner: Turkey salad sandwich 7pp and a banana Tea: Roast chicken and veggies 16pp Tea was so yummy but I will try and make it lower...

Who else works night shifts? How do you find it affects your weightloss and your eating? I'm working Thursday and Friday nights this week, I feel like I eat more when I am on nights, especially the first night (I only usually do 2 together) as I don't sleep during the day leading up to it so...

I bet the majority of us have a goal we want to reach by Christmas? Well I do anyway, I'm aiming to be under 14st. But what will you be doing food wise over Christmas? Will you think just not bother counting points for a day/few days/week? Or do you intend to stick to it? My weigh in day is...

Good morning. Well after spending a good five minutes examining myself in the mirror this morning (vain much!?) I am convinced I haven't lost anymore weight since Friday, in fact apart from my bum being a little smaller I look as fat as ever! However I have resisted the call of the scales...

You're doing really well! Its great to read what other people eat and get ideas. I'm a midwife so I know what you mean about work getting in the way of eating well sometimes. I work 12 hours shifts and quite often we're so busy I can go the whole shift without eating (I never have...

Thankyou for the welcome Bróna. :thankyou: Do you think you will acheive your goal of 11lbs by Christmas? I think it is realistic if we stick to it! I am feeling very determined I'm glad someone agrees with me on the porridge! My Mam loves it, I keep thinking I must be doing something wrong...

:wavey: Hello, welcome to my self indulgent diary! :sign0144: About me: I am 25 years old. I'm single and I have a daughter who is 8 years old. I work as midwife in the North East of England. I'm a bit of a foodie, I have shelves of recipe books and love to cook and eat! However I'm also a...

We're going to try these for the first time tonight. I told my daughter this morning (pizza is a treat in this house!) and she wants to put cheese, cheese and more cheese on hers, and maybe a bit of ham! I think I will have some pesto, chicken and mushrooms on mine. Bet they're out of stock...

Do you like beans? I love mixed bean chilli, I make a chilli sauce first (because I like it to cook for a while) and then add the beans and cook for about 15 minutes. I usually make a big pan of this with 3 types of beans. This probably costs about £3-4 and does me at least four meals (I...

Ooh I dunno but it sounds lovely! I wouldn't have thought it would be more than your weekly propoints though.

I reckon 2pp for the mashed potato, chicken 1-2pp, 2pp roast, 1pp ham So that 6-7pp not including the stuffing because it would depend what kind of stuffing it was. 0 for the veges as long as the are just steamed/boiled with no butter/oil.

Thankyou little miss helpful and babypat!

Hello, I'm new to the forum. I've had my first official weigh in today although its been 10 days since I started counting points. I started at 15st2lb, was 15st 0.5lb last friday and 14st 10.75lb today. So a loss of 5.25lbs so far :) I'm on 34 points although have mostly been a few under...
