Brilliant - Well doneDay 34
My brother is home today for the first time in about a year, so my mum went into full-on-feeder mode
Breakfast: Lemon Pancakes
Lunch: nothing - was saving myself for the mega feed
Dinner: Three courses of Mum mum’s finest cooking. MFP says 1500 cals but that sounds underestimated!
Back on track tomorrow.
Preparing myself for a very hungry day :-(
NSV my dad made some big comments about how much weight I’ve lost and how well I’m looking.
Also, I had to cut a new hole in my belt because it’s too big.

Day 36
Hmm ... struggled a bit today. I seem to be going to extreme lengths to avoid the soups
I had my fave Cherries & Berries shake for breakfast but missed lunch by being “too busy” and was then starving by the time I got home, which was all the excuse I needed to have real food - turkey bacon, mushroom, broccoli and asparagus omelette for 440 calories.
I’m still hungry and going to bed in a minute or I’m likely to start raiding cupboards! I may have a bar and call today Man Plan ish!
1.5lb off this week, bringing my total weight loss to 1st 12lb in 5 weeks, which is more than half a pound every day and that’s not bad at all!

Week 6 Weigh In = -1.75lb
A frustrating 0.25lb off 2st altogether!
It took me 3 months to lose that much last time I did Slimming World!
Day 43 - stressy one at work today, but I hit the Diet Coke instead of crisps/choc.
Breakfast: Cherries & Berries Shake
Lunch: Indian Daal Pot
Dinner: Indian Curry with added mushrooms and broccoli (+80 calories)
No enough water today, off to fill my gerbil bottle

So, days 44 - 46 were mainly off plan, due to my office Christmas do and night out with the girls.
Just about crawled back onto the wagon yesterday, although I am struggling with serious takeaway cravings this evening!
Hope everyone else is doing well x

End of Week 7
I resisted temptation last night and didn’t order takeaway
Today was a good TS day
Breakfast: Strawberry Shake
Lunch: Beef & Black Bean Pot
Dinner: Shepherds Pie
I was very sceptical about the shepherds pie, but it was absolutely fine with a bit of Worcestershire sauce thrown in. Will order a few more in the new year!

I can’t believe that I forgot to post yesterday! Great news, I lost over 2lbs - not quite sure how given all the food and alcohol last week!
Still on TS, no slips despite the office being filled with chocolates and sweets.

Thursday and Friday went pretty well - calling them manplan-ish as I added some low carb extras to my dinner on Thursday and then succumbed to a calorie counted piece of ginger cake at the office on Friday. Both days finished around 730 calories.
I was disappointed with myself yesterday. I had a huge sandwich at my mum’s house for lunch. Some days your mum just needs to feed you! I said no to crisps so I felt pretty much in control. I was planning a food day anyway as I had a steak and some veggies planned for dinner. If I had left it at that the day would have been ok. But then whilst wrapping presents in the afternoon I managed to “accidentally” eat some chocolates, a hot chocolate drink and an amaretto & Coke. Then as I was all carbed up I decided it would be safe to drink a glass of wine with dinner, which turned into 3!!
I had a terrible night’s sleep and woke up really dehydrated and feeling very fat! Total waste of calories! Back on it today with lemon pancakes for breakfast.

Days 55 & 56
Back on track after Saturday’s misbehaviour
Pancakes, Indian Curry and Stollen bar on Sunday then Cherries & Berries Shake, Daal Pot & Ham-mushroom-pasta Soup today.
Will weigh in tomorrow, then attempt to stay on track until Friday with a few “planned” treats at work (basically I can’t get out of various team lunches etc!). Then I’m going to a farmer’s market on Saturday, it’s my birthday on Sunday, then Christmas!
There will be a gain but I’ll get right back on exante on Jan 2nd.

Hi Exantians, I’m back!
So I had almost two weeks off to enjoy my birthday and the Christmas festivities and I gained ...
...
...
...
...
... a whopping 2lb
I think it helped that I was ill between Christmas and New Year
which meant I didn’t eat as much junk as usual! I’m really happy with it and I got straight back on track on Wednesday. My new delivery arrived today so I’m all set. Three weeks until a family holiday so hopefully I can lose half a stone by then.
Good luck to all the people making fresh starts this week xx
