*+*Lets Do This*+*

Hi my name is Sarah
Been on and off mini mins for a few years or more now!
Told myself id lose weight for my holiday last year...and my wedding which was this june the 28th and it didnt happen.
For the last couple of years ive been playing around with about half a stone...lose it then put it back on.
I have 4 stone to lose and I need to lose it.
I go on my honeymoon on the 6th sept so only got just over 2 weeks...im off to thailand so hoping I wont be too naughty and stick to veg and rice (haha we all know that wont happen!)
I aim to be 100% untill I go and get straight back on it when I return home on the 20th sept.
We are wanting to try for a baby next year and I dont want to be carrying extra weight, I want to be a fit mummy that has a healthy pregnancy.
Im going to be doing it from home as I cant afford the classes at the moment and I have all the books and help from this fantastic site.
Im going to be trying the green plan with the extra easy occasionally as I lost 2 stone doing the green plan a few years back and I cant always do the 1/3 superfree.
I hope I will get support with the journey...no matter how long it takes...ill get there!
Wil be a saturday weigher so dont actually know my current weight. A week ago I were 14st 9. Eek!!
So here goes to a new me <3

Soo i have a term time job and I think tbh its daytime boredness thats made me crave food!
Ive wrote a list of snacks and a list of meals put on my fridge along with a pic of me at my smallest ever of 10st 10.
Very happy in the picture
Had a bit of a weird day today not ate much really and trying to use everything we have in the house before going shopping for more as im officially a poorper atm with paying the honeymoon off! So today is an extra easy day:
Brunch:
low fat sausage x 2..3syns
3 rashers of bacon
2 eggs
Frylight
Hexb wholemeal pitter
Ketchup 1syn
Was very yummy! But no superfree :/ oops!

Tea: having vegetable and quorn cottage pie! Mmmmm
maybe with ketchup too 2syns

Snacks:
A random bit of butter icing 5syns
Skinny cappuccino 2.5syns

Will update if it changes xx

Just to add to the diary I've tried syn free pancakes for the first time and wow they are amazing!! Mmm deffo be having them when I have a sweet tooth x

Hiya, I've just started again too. I've found frozen bananas amazing when I need something sweet. Plus, if you coat them in a melted freddo, it's like a mega treat!

Hiya Oooo sounds yummy! How many syns is a freddo? Have you done sw before? X

feeling motivated this morning! Just on my way to aqua aerobics and then a swim may also have a chill out session in the sauna and steam room...to de stress as feeling a little low and stressed at the moment. Xx

Tbh to me it looks like your lunch isnt substantial enough as theres no carbs.
It takes alot of time sometimes to get your head around and your body to adjust.
I done extra easy 100% and only lost like 3lbs but when I done the green plan I lost 2 stone so personally for me ee doesn't work as well.
My typical day when I done the green plan were:
Weetabix and skimmed milk hex a and b
Cous cous with chicken hexb
Jacket potato or pasta
Snacks ff yog, fruit, alpen lights, ryvitas, quark and hot choc.
The 1/3 superfree isn't as important with red or green plan as your having to weigh and count either your meat or carbs.

Thanks so much for your h3lp - my dinner was as stated before but minus tomatoes but plus pasta and hard boiled egg - no space raiders (just didnt fancy them) had syn free yogurt and apple and grapes - will continue with ee for the rest of the week - if no results I will switch to green :thumbup:
Thanks again x
