[Roziee]

Up your sins if you need too. Alot of people have told me to have more syns in the beginning as I'd have to reduce them later on in my weight loss journey. Try it for a week.. X

 

[hjanea]

Thanks hun, I'll give it a try!

Aww what a lovely feeling it must be.. I'm home at mums for the weekend and my dad said he had noticed I'd lost some weight.. Which was lovely

 

[hjanea]

Thats great Roziee-it feels so good doesn't it!!!

Friday 6th May.
B-coffee-hexA and 1 syn. Pineapple juice-6 syns!!!
S-apple.
L-mugshot, grapes, mullerlight.
S-mugshot-not sure I should've had 2 in a day but I was hungry-probably because I haven't had a 'proper' meal today. Will rectify that at teatime with SW quiche, new potatoes and salad. Must make sure in future that I have proper meals not snacks as I'm not good at snacking on fruit!!

 

[hjanea]

Rest of friday.
S-apple.
T-SW quiche, new potatoes, big sala-took up 2/3 of the plate to make up for my poor intake earlier. Salad cream-1.5 syns.
Total so far of 9.5 syns. Still have alpen light to have with a cuppa after DD has gone to bed, though I don't think I'll be far behind her. I can hardly keep my eyes open! Don't know if its the diet or my medication-probably the meds! Hope they'll be worth it in the end this time.
Friend that I saw last week and today said she could see I'd lost weight!!

Sunday 8th May.

Coffee-hexA and 1 syn.

Breakfast at work-mullerlight, alpen bar, 2 clemetines,apple.

L-mugshot.

S-2 slices lean ham, clementine.

T-lean roast pork, frylighted potatoes, carrots and parsnips. Leek, cauliflower and brocoli. Meat juices gravy-4 syns, crab apple jelly-1 syn, 25g pork crackling-7 syns and worth every one of them!!
Mullerlight.

Total so far of 13 syns. Total for the week-78/105. Thats not too bad. In fact I'm a bit tempted to have a cream egg. But I'm not sure. I had a sneaky peek at work today and have only lost a pound. I was so hoping for more as I feel and look slimmer. I also thought that if I had a decent loss then I would count todays weight as my WI so I didn't have to trail into work tomorrow.
Hmm not sure whether to have the creme egg or not. I'll be disappointed tomorrow if that pound is back on!!!

Monday 9th May
Well I've been to get weighed and I'm 13st 4.7lbs. A loss of 1 and 3/4 lbs which I'm fairly happy with. it would've been good to be more as I am sticking to this so well but I am aware that the medication I'm on my be affecting my loss. And to think that I am 10.5lbs less than I was 4 weeks ago is great. My back is less fat and I really hate having a fat back!! Trying to think that a stone loss is only 3.5lbs away and If I stick to plan I might make it in a couple of weeks-how good will that feel?!!
Right todays plan-
B-coffee (not as much milk as usual as ran out so just)HexA.
Alpen light.
Need to have some fruit before I go shopping-melon probably.

L-ham salad with potato salad (1 syn for the mayo), might have a boiled egg too. Salad cream-1.5.

T-quorn chilli (made with the leftover quorn bolognese) with rice.

S-mullerlight, another alpen bar, ???.

 

[Roziee]

Right rest of monday.

S-banana.

D-ham, potatoes, big salad of leaves, grated carrot, cucumber, tomato, beetroot onion (2/3 superfree). Light salad cream-1.5. Mayo-1.

T-quorn chilli-quorn, onion, mushroom, courgette, passata, tom puree(1.5 per serving)garlic, chilli powder, coriander leaves, kidney beans with rice, cucumber and ff fromage frais. What a yummy plateful!

So 4 syns so far and still an alpen bar to have. Might have it now for my pudding to finish of my tea. I'm tired so may have an early night-if not I have plenty of syns for a snack later.
