Thanks for all your support folks!!
I had a revelation today. I found my old slimming world log book from 2006 - the last time i 'seriously' dieted (not mucking about with faddy diets lol)
Back then it took me over 6 months to lose 13lbs! This time i did that in just over 2 weeks ....
That tells me that now i'm ready to change
Spot on, your headd is in the right place now Surzy

Jim - I thought that too - feels different this time. That i'm taking it seriously - that the only person who loses out if I cheat is me. I'm being far more open about it too. I'm not embarrassed to say no to things now.
I remember last time being at work and someone offering me a slice of cake - I said no and said I was on a diet and the response was so cutting - "It's a bit late for that - have some cake'' I don't think i ever dared mention it again. But i'm a more confident person now to stand up for myself.
Rosyro - they have a new plan called extra easy which is a combination of red and green - less restrictive and much more geared to healthy choices
nicky9 - wow 23lbs lost in January!!! Go you! That's fabulous I bet you are over the moon!!!
This weekend's challenge is - a weekend away in Cardiff!! For Rugby League - Rugby League matches not famous for their healthy food selections - unless you count pie as one of your 5 a day ... which I think they do in Wigan lol
So planning has been done - i'm taking my cooler box - it's full of fruit, HIfi bars, cherry tomatoes, celery sticks and light primula cheese.
I've also saved quite a lot of syns since tuesday - so i have a few extras to use if required.
I've looked at restaurants- tapas tonight (Big salads, meatballs and spanish omelettes) Indian on Saturday (Chicken shaslick and boiled rice - with daal) Sunday - Pub grub (jacket potato and chicken with salad) and Monday i'll probably cook at home to save syns!!
So hopefully i'm all prepared

A lovely weekend over with and didn't over spend on my syns either!!
Back to an evening weigh in this week so expect losses will be small or none-existent ... but no matter!!!
Tho I would love another shiny - a nice 1 and a half stone shiny!! hehe
But I know that this is a marathon not a sprint

Lost nothing this week.
But i'm fine with that
I've moved back to an evening group for starters.
Plus we ate out 4 times over the weekend and I'm happy with the good choices I made (the food was still gorgeous even if it wasn't as bad for me as usual!!)
Frightening though that had I not controlled my eating how much weight I would have put on!!!

A great wednesday - lovely home made soup for lunch and a tasty garlic chilli and ginger pork stir fry with lots of veg for tea.
Tomorrows tea is already in the slow cooker - my take on a Welsh Cawl using Gammon and Turkey as it's leaner than Lamb!! It smells lovely already.
Pasta Salad in fridge for taking to work
