So... I rejoined SW last week after getting to target 3 years ago.
I've had type 1 diabetes for half my life, but the baby thing is almost brand new (my little girl is 10 months now).
I never used to understand how easy it was to eat a childs food, or grab a drive through mcdonalds because she's asleep in her car seat and I'm hungry lol.
I gained 5 stone with pregnancy, I rejoined with 48lbs to lose (about 3.5 stone?)
Just had my first weigh in and I'm a bit gutted!
I followed plan 100% for 5 days. Messed up a touch one day, and had a blow out on new years eve where I ate everything in sight.
The trouble I've had is that in my 100% days I've had low blood sugar everyday which has meant I've had to have sugar (which had consisted of biscuits, crisps, white bread and lucozade this week)
(Note to self, reduce insulin to prevent hypos and the inevitable cupboard raid lol)
Back to my weigh in... I gained 2 lbs. I've been a member twice before and never gained in week 1 .
I started a food diary (spreadsheet style) on Monday which has really helped me to stay on track, I've even included my hypo (low blood sugar) syns this week.
Seeing I bought a 12 week countdown I can't quit now, and I won't. Food shop has been done, meals have been planned and I'm excited for a double whammy loss next week.
I'll update with my progress and let's see if I get the results I want.
50lbs to go xxxx
