Haha thanks Hun, I was pretty pleased with myself too! Feel like I'm doing so well today, have 4pp left for the day! About to have a sf jelly and hoping to hit the gym again tonight too with Chris :-) I've 7 weeklies left and 6 E/P - I don't plan on eating my exercise points at all but more...

Been much better on the diet coke front today, still a bit of a head ache but not dreadful! Have drank over 2l of water and been to a hardcore legs, bums and tums class at the gym which I think has helped!! Today's food has been good - B- giant pink lady apple L- homemade crustless quiche...

Thanks Hun :-) I've had a bit of a lightbulb moment and think it could be because I've had no diet coke today, think it's time to cut back on my usual 1-2 cans a day! I do make my quiche that way yes :-) bacon and red onion today! Going to take that to work for lunch tomorrow too!! X

Back to work after a week off today, majorly struggling and have had a mega headache all day. Since getting home I've realised I only had a couple of small cups of water all day, and so since coming home I've made up a 2l jug of sugar free diluted squash to drink throughout the night, hoping...

Today's food :-) B- porridge and skimmed milk, + an apple. L- jacket, baked beans, 40g 1/2 fat cheese (treat 1) D- roast pork (no fat) fry light roasted root veg and potatoes, 2tsp gravy (treat 2)

Just a wee update on today's food, not on plan specifically but made very good choices and so I'm feeling pleased! B- crumpets, butter (treat 1) bovril L-warb thin with Wafer thin chicken and a tbsp of extra light mayo (treat 2) S- spoonful of yesterday's pasta. D- grilled tandoori...

Wow - I cannot believe how much more filling wholemeal pasta is!! Had less than I normally would and am just as comfortably full 1 hour later! I'm going to make myself some popping corn with sweetener and salt on later on whilst catching up on BGT! Xx

Not patronising at all Hun, would rather have the help :-) I did remember to ask without butter too, and had a diet coke - feeling very pleased with myself!! Xxx

Yeah jacket is at the pub, thinking I may skip the cheese as could be a huge portion? I apologise for my poor grammar, that should have read veggies (ie tinned tomatoes, onions, peppers), bacon, and I've decided to have some chicken instead of mince :-) X

Ok so today's food:- B- porridge + skimmed milk L- jacket potato, beans, half fat cheese (treat 1) salad. D- whole wheat pasta, veggie bacon + extra lean mince bolognese bake, warburtons thins garlic bread w/ low fat cheese (treat 2) Does this look ok on simple start? :-) x

You may be onto something there Serena ;-) I had porridge oats and skimmed milk for breakfast, and am just about to take a look at the menu for the pub I'm heading to for lunch! X

This time last year I'd lost a little over 2 stone with slimming world and was feeling great - over the year I've put all but 5lbs back on (have lost about 6 more now ;-) ) and I really don't want to come to that again!! I'm hoping if I enjoy a few festive treats over Xmas whilst still fasting...

Have you heard of the insanity workouts? I am currently selling a brand new unopened full box set, as OH and I both bought it separately before moving in together and have of course only opened one. I did the first month a while back and dropped over a dress size whilst still eating quite...

I'm just outside the city centre Hun :-) I'd love to have lost a stone by Xmas, 9.5lbs to go, in around 7 weeks doesn't seem too unreasonable! My other half and I are dieting together and last night we went to the cinema. I don't think he is eating anywhere near enough cals on feast days...

It's just getting back into good habits isn't it, that's what I'm trying to do. My danger zone is letting a day (or even just one meal) off plan turn into days/weeks of destruction!! Xxx

Hi all - been totally off track for the last 4 weeks and instead of losing weight I have let my weight creep up by 7lbs!!!!! YUCK!!! SO - 17 weigh ins between now and Xmas - I am going to aim to be at the bottom end of 11stone. My problem is letting one bad day lead to bad weeks/months...
