Bridesmaid blitz dairy

[bridesmaidblitz]

Hi everyone! I do have a diary but I think posting one here will be better!

So, a little about me.

My name is Laura and I am honoured to be my friend's bridesmaid for her wedding in October. I am really looking forward to it and want to make sure the dress still fits. I tried it on at around ten and a half stone, so I have put on half a stone, and to be honest, it would have looked perfect at about ten stone! My ultimate goal is to get to nine and a half stone, but I would like to be at least ten and a half stone by the wedding!

I am doing Slimming World online, so if you have any suggestions then please do let me know!

Breakfast: coco pops with milk (5 syns). No fruit at boyfriends house!

Lunch: Cous cous with roasted sweet potato, onion and courgettes with pan fried salmon (in fry light).

Dinner: Chargrilled spiced chicken breast with seasoned chips and salad of rocket, spring onion, tomato and olive oil.

Snack: Fruit sherbut. (3 syns)

Oh, weighed myself this morning as I won't be able to weigh in on Monday. I have lost 0.8 of a pound. I am very pleased with this! I graduated from university this week so I haven't been very strict with food really! I was expecting to stay the same, but I haven't!

*happy dance*

So I went shopping with the girls yesterday. I have to confess though, Emma had a voucher for 3 course meal for 13 pounds. I have added the syns and its a wopping 49 syns!!!! not worth it at all!!!!

So given that I only had eight syns on Friday and Saturday I have worked out that I can have ten syns until Friday. That should even it all out!!!

Extra easy

Breakfast: Slimming world fry up with two scrambled eggs, 3 quorn sausages, some beans, and cherry tomatoes on wholemeal HEXB bread.

Lunch: Garlic dough balls, goats cheese pizza with salad, and chocolate cake.

Dinner: Muller light vanilla yogurt.

Tomorrow will be better!!!!

[bridesmaidblitz]

Got some bad news today. My grandmother informed me that my granddad has suspected Prostate cancer. He has not told me yet though, and she told me to pretend that I know nothing about it at all. Awkward situation to be in really, I suppose he'll tell me himself when he is ready.

So, both my grandparents (my paternal granddad and my maternal grandmother) have cancer. Suspected prostate and confirmed bowel cancer. Nana Rita was diagnosed last week, and granddad is waiting for a blood test to come back to look at levels of a raised protein in his blood which will indicate how bad it is. My life is a bit shitty at the moment.

My diet has remained intact though, which is good!

Thank you!

I've been AWOL for the weekend (and I admit, too much food not at all on plan and alcohol). It was, err, interesting! I will weigh in tomorrow because I got up too late today. Hopefully, I have not undone all my hard work!
