1lb a week challenge

[Tibbs]

Although Kay doesn't run the soup challenge anymore here's how it works. I followed this a couple of times myself last year and got really good losses..worth a try

Also, here's the menu planners I use..I'd been on here months without knowing these existed. These help me loads if I stick one on the fridge..reminds me to choose wisely.
I need to start putting them back on again

Thanks Tibbs!! xx

I almost forgot, Tastefully Vikki is good too, especially for soup, did you buy a soup maker then? X

Oh thanks for those Kazz. Yes, Santa brought me a soup maker last year it's my fave gadget. I tend to stick to the same soup though as have not that long been off an elimination diet..know what's ok to eat now though
There's a few people saying Tastefully Vikki is good, I'd already been on her site via a blog I follow but must admit it was for a DIY Hotel Chocolat style slab I need to check out her full site X

Hi All,

I was on plan all day, including making a syn-free lasage for tea. It was all going well, but then I seemed to shout 'bugger it' in my own mind and drank wine & eat chocolate. Must have been about 40 syns. So fed up with myself. I think it's because I have been so well on plan but not losing much, especially compared to others. Any advice how to keep my head in the game over the longer term please? How can I keep motivated and try to avoid doing the same again and sabotaging myself? Help please

Hi Denise, if it were me I’d class it as a blip and move on, but just keep in mind why you’re on this trip give yourself a pat on the back for all you’ve achieved so far and keep plugging away at it! We’re all human after all and all prone to the same inner demons and temptations. Just learn from it and move on xx

[DinoDana]

Half a lb on for me this week. Could have been worse so I'm not complaining

 

[Denise116]

Gain of 0.5 lbs for me this week please. Shouldn't have had all those syns...

 

[Kate54]

1 lb off this week!!! Considering it’s star week, I’m happy with that!!

 

[DinoDana]

2lbs on today, but these past couple of weeks have been awful food wise as you know. Now back on it, so hopefully I'll be saying goodbye to that 2lbs plus more very soon. Get me back in the 9's

 

[Jenny_b]

Hi, 1lb off for me today, I'm so pleased as I was expecting a gain x x
