Morning all, I've decided to accept that I'm going to be pretty hungry all the time and at nearly 19 weeks pregnant, I shouldn't be so worried about my figure as its changing :) So today has been : Breakfast : hex b cereal, hex a milk, blueberries Snack : banana bread Lunch : tuna...

Hummus is made with chickpeas, so healthy no? If you kept a log, you can either syn it or move on. I say move on! If you enjoyed your smoothies and got better losses then that works for you so I'd go with it!

So I ended on 18 syns yesterday, which is crap tbh! I feel like someone needs to sew my mouth shut - I'm constantly hungry! Apparently the second trimester is when you put on most of your weight and when you get an increased appetite - I can vouch for that anyways. Today is a nice lazy day at...

Was off plan yesterday (planned) but today I'm so sick! Threw up my toast this morning so there is nothing in my stomach. Almost afraid to eat again. It was horrible :( No idea what food I'll have today but I'll update if I get anything

Well done everyone. If you haven't done it before I would suggest maybe going to one or two meetings to get the gist of it - I know I didn't understand it all just by looking at the books. I'm doing SW during pregnancy - helping me not to pile on too many pounds!

So it's 12 o clock here and I'm already munching! Won't be totally on plan today, heading to a housewarming later so I'm sure there will be some goodies! Breakfast : kiwi, yoghurt, hex b toast and baked beans Snack : grapes, flake 4.5 syns Lunch : haven't decided yet but kinda needs to have...

Foods! The most important bit :) Breakfast : crunchy bran, milk and banana (hexs) Snack 3.5 syns Lunch : tuna salad pasta (4 syns), flake 4 syns Kiwi, yoghurt Dinner : SW chicken curry with rice

Hehe Marybobs - I'll try. We've found one we like but it's not free until March and I'm unsure when we can view it! Hopefully we could view it in a week or two and it seems to be in our price range so we will definitely be taking a look. In a good mood this morning and the sun is shining...

Something same size perhaps! They are jacking up our rent and I don't fancy paying it! Esp with a baby on the way - that's expensive enough!

Morning all! It's cold here this morning - and I don't say that often! Had a nice sleep in and just had my brekkie. Plan to do an hours housework (there isn't that much to do) and then get to it with finding a new place to live! Breakfast : crunchy bran, milk (both hexs) and banana Snack : 3.5...

Hi Gemsta! I'm okay, some days I'm on plan, some days I'm not. I'll go forward using one extra of each hex as I know that's what people do when they are maintaining and that's my goal! Today, I've been pretty off plan. Had pancakes for breakfast at IHOP and then a wee MC D ice cream! I'll...

Thanks bubbles! Your allowed 2 extra hexs? I've only been having an extra hex a? So went to dinner last night and took one mouthful of the salmon - it was nasty. I had my baked potato and veggies and ended up having 2 slices of garlic bread to fill the void. So disappointed!

Your doing really well doll! Hope daddy is taking a baby aspirin every day! Helps thin the blood

Bubbles did you manage to stick to SW the whole time? That's impressive!! I couldn't in the first trimester - I just didn't want healthy foods. Last 2 weeks have been better but it's a struggle. I haven't gained that much yet (maybe 3/4 pounds at most) but my OB is very particular about weight...

Babes, if I was there I'd give you a big hug! Everyone is different and it's horrible that you have to go through same **** more than once a month.. Hopefully it'll get better with time (although I have heard that babies makes it better, it could be a lie though)

Hey Gail, I was in the same boat! Lost 2 stone for my wedding and coupled with treatment for PCOS (metaformin) I'm now 14 weeks pregnant. I will say it's a struggle and some days it's really hard but just remember it's all for a good cause!

Delighted for you bubbles!! Well done on the loss.. Your food is looking amazing, could you come and cook for me? :)

Hubby came home with these for me last night, think he's treating me since I'm in my second trimester now and he knows I'm feeling a lil down about my changing figure. It can be really difficult to put on weight when you've been working so hard to get it off, can make you feel a little lost...

I used a sharwoods jar ;) only 4 syns per 100g so really good value syn wise. It was mega lush, threw in lots veggies with chicken, sauce and served with rice. Would have added some wedges if I had potatoes in :p

Apologies Gemsta, I've reattached so hopefully you can see it now.

Today's food! Yesterday was good but I did treat myself to a Rhubarb yoghurt after dinner :oops: suppose the only benefit is added calcium... Breakfast : hex b toast, scrambled eggs and fried tomatoes Rest of day : been half on plan, half not. I had a SW dinner but then a push pop! Lol

Stayed within my syns yesterday, I've just forgot to write it all down! However - I did make oat muffins and I have no idea why but they made my tummy turn and hurt all night, I will definitely not be making them again. Got lots to do today, heading to my local SW meetup (just a group of...

Just for you Gemsta, here's the blanket I made, I've started another but no doubt it'll take me a while to finish as I need to get new wool

So much food this morning for breakfast - I was so hungry when I woke up :eek: Breakfast : hex b toast, baked beans, 2 hard boiled eggs and 4 syns orange juice. I also had made some oaty cookies but I'm going to leave these til later... No idea if they will be nice, I've never made them...

Becky, I have private health insurance so I've had 3 scans at this stage :D pretty amazing! Honestly for the first 12 weeks I would just listen to your body, I was very lucky and didn't have morning sickness but ate copious amounts of crackers and ginger nut biscuits to keep the nausea at bay...

Oh Gemsta - I flipping love potatoes! I'd have a love affair with them if I could ;) but I prefer the potatoes in Ireland, so I don't eat them as often out here

Gemsta, hope you don't mind but I've stolen your Mexican bake recipe, it looks amazing! Well done on the shop, I'd love to have Asda and aldi here! :( but I'll make do with the shops I have, least they have cheap spices.

Image by tatabubbly posted 17 January 2016 at 9:31 AM Good morning everyone! Must make a better effort to put my pics up of my food. Got up early today, I've cleaned kitchen, done laundry and cleaned my door and steps. Been a productive morning. Yesterday I finished a baby blanket I had been...

Food looks lush Bobs! I'm such a greedy eater at the mo, I always forget to take pics!

Congrats Becky! I'm nearly 13 weeks and for first trimester I found it really difficult to stick to SW. This week I've found it a bit easier and I'm hoping getting weighted every week will help motivate me to eat healthier!

Take your time bubbles, it's a marathon not a sprint xx

Thanks Gemsta! We are really chuffed as we have been broody for ages. I was off plan yesterday but taking it in my stride and back on plan today! OH has a nice unexpected day off so we are spending it together, he wants to go out for lunch so will make sensible choices. Breakfast : hex b...

Thanks bubbles! I'm 12 weeks, nearly finished with this first trimester! Can't believe it myself some days! Feeling good though. The doctors here have given me a "target weight gain" of 2.3kg between now and 20 weeks, I'd be so lucky. They really push their own agenda here so I'll be putting...

Feeling much better today! Also, I'm pregnant so this diary is probably gonna be a whole lot more about trying not to gain too much than the loses! Had my scan and all was well. Doctor is *trying* her hardest to put me on a low carb diet - like carbs are the cause of all evil in the world. I'm...

So had a takeaway last night and this morning my tummy was in bits! So sore! Feel so horrid and sick this morning. Currently sitting in visa office trying to process my visa here for an extension to my OH gets it sorted - so much effort!

Hehe Steph it's such a curse! I've put on 5lbs since I found out about my little bean so I'm hoping that will be all for a while. My Obgyn did say not to try and get too bogged down with weight loss - that you should never aim to loss weight in your first trimester. I applaud those doing it...

Doing well - I'm back on track today 100% since Christmas! Well I plan to have a 100% day, I missed healthy foods over Xmas :) Emmab, they recommend only weighing once a week, mainly as your body will fluctuate everyday. I tend to WI once a week as it keeps me on track

Generally a size 12! But as my mum says if you don't like the label, just cut it out!

Well I've slept for 12 hours straight and I'm hoping I've gotten over my jet lag from traveling! Back properly today! Asked OH what he wants for dinners this week - no help whatsoever.. Men :D Trying to do out a food plan. Came home to a house with the power off meaning everything in our fridge...

Hey all! I'm about 10 and half weeks at the moment - and I've been gaining already! I'd say Christmas was slightly to blame as well though so I've went back to basics and hopefully will be able to stick to it! First day back on plan here! Wish me luck!

If you have Sw curries, how about making courgette noodles or cauliflower rice? On SP days you have Speedy fruit and veg and certain fruits like bananas aren't speedy! That's as best as I can describe it!

Andrea, the books have changed quite a bit, if you can afford to go to class and get the books, I would! Oh Paris! It's incredible! I'm so stiff after gym session, hope to see some results tomorrow morning!! Although I am heading to Nandos but I'll be getting all the SW friendly foods! :D

Hi flasharry, having a much better day! Thanks xxxxx Sometimes you need to vent!

You can eat lots of P. I'm just saying if you are doing very intense workouts that a protein shake does aid muscle recovery faster than trying to eat the equivalent in chicken breasts

Well done Gemsta!! My amazing OH hasn't let me near the chocolate aisle.. Hard to believe a few years ago I ate like 6 big Easter eggs over a weekend :O

Whao!! Not worth the syns but they are amazing!

No you can, and that's fine but I did find when I synned one or two that my muscles recovered a lot quicker the next day

My trainer told me to have some protein shakes as well to aid muscle recovery, basically cos you can get higher grams of protein this way.. I haven't yet cos I'm doing SW but may need to start incorporating 1 or 2 a week as I exercise 4-5 times a week

Yeah Gemsta, the heat is much nicer to live with than cold.. Feeling like a little bit of a weirdo, someone cracked an Easter egg and left it on the shelf of the shop, and yup, I had a good smell of that Easter egg!! A smell! Good job OH was with me pullin me away from the Easter eggs or I...

It's lovely here at the moment but then soon the weather will turn and it will be too hot to do anything!! Just bought our luggage last night for our trip home/our honeymoon - it's so exciting! 5 months tomorrow!
