Hello
Where to start......
My name is Clare and I am a Primary school teacher, I am 27 and have done WW & SW before. I found SW easier and lost well on it but fell of the wagon and have put the weight back on. This time I really want to stick to it and I want to look better for Christmas and good for next summer :)

So today is the first day of me getting back on the band wagon and starting the diet again.

It was not a good start to the morning as I got a phone call to say my uncle had died last night from a large heart attack. This as u can guess put a whole downer on the day and left me wanting junk food and chocolate but NO I stuck to my guns and managed to not eat junk all day.

Im very proud of myself for this.

So here we go day one…..

Breakfast: Weetabix HEXB with milk HEXA and water to save milk, small spoon of sweetner.

Dinner: low fat noodles

Tea: Rainbow trout with honey, lime and chilli glaze ( 1 Syn) with new pots, tomatoes, spring onions, peppers, light salad cream (3 Syns) leek, mushrooms and bacon (all fat removed)Pudding: Custard (3 Syns) sweet mincemeat ( 4 Syns)

Snacks: Diet drinks all day
Nectarine

Total Syns - 11
 
Found this and i like it so its being added to my diary

Another diet we're about to endure,
but this time we'll do it, of that we are sure.
We've tried all the others without much success,
but this is the one to get into THAT dress!


For years we've tried hard to lose excess weight,
and we now have the answer to looking just great.
For us no more 'chips' or 'Big Mac' on a whim,
we want to look good and we'd love to be slim.

We joined all the clubs where we'd regularly meet,
but when we read all the can't haves we'd go home and 'greet'


They said don't have this and they said don't have that,
so we'd paid all that money just for a chat!

We all have a wardrobe from size 12 up to 20,
and big, baggy jumpers of which there are plenty.
A drawer of small undies is a dream we all know,
so those big ugly knickers really must go!


With time passing quickly and teenage years gone,
we have no more excuses to rely upon,
The one about 'puppy fat' ran out long ago,
so this time it's business, let's give it a go!
