Embarking on a fresh attempt to lose my weight - here we go

[DOWNTOWNTOTTY]

I subscribed to online slimming world in April 2013 - gold package - which gives the books, the magazines and the online support. I have not been very successful - in fact I've lost sod all - cant afford to continue with the subscriptions nor can I get to a group.

I have decided to use what I have and start again!!!!

My goal is to lose 3 stones in weight - my starting weight today is 13st and 7lb - enough is enough!!!!!

I can do this - so I will be posting my food diary every day - please feel free to comment at my choices. I will return the support and encouragement you provide - and if i'm being a pig - I promise I will declare so that you can jest with me!!!!!

Hi
Well done you for persevering, especially as you didn't lose weight up until now.
I can't see any meat or fish - are you a veggie? Today's plan looked green, if it is you can have two healthy a's and two healthy b's
Don't deprive yourself too much of syns, you are allowed 5 - 15
Keep posting your diary, so we can help if help is needed. So far it looks good

I'm not strictly veggie - I will eat some fish such as salmon and tuna hence the easy option choices - thanks for the feedback - I'm so determined to succeed and cannot for the life of me understand what I did wrong before .... maybe portion sizes - so my mission is to concentrate on the size of the meals I'm eating xxx
