1lb off!!!
Really chuffed with that! It's defo incthe right direction.
I had a chat with my consultant explaining what I've ate this week, and she said because I haven't had two HExB's one the days I've had no carbs, my body isn't getting enough fibre. So, I'm going to try and stick to Extra Easy days this week with maybe a red day or two thrown in
in.
Oh and I managed to get 25 lengths in at swimming, we only swam for half an hour so that's not too bad.
Here's to another good week

Good morning everyone, this week is flying in. Happy hump day - Friday is now in sight
I'm still feeling very positive about my loss last night - I'd prefer to just lose 1lb every week until I feel totally comfortable. Slow and ready wins the race
Last night I worked out that I've got 18 weeks until my holiday to Majorca, so technically that could be another 18lbs lost, which is just over a stone and that would mean I would be in the 10's. I don't think I've ever been in the 10's before but I'm sure it would be awesome! Haha. I still don't know what my goal weight is yet, but I know I'm not happy with myself yet so I'm just going to keep plodding along
Anju - It's very nice to see you, thanks for stopping by and the kind words
Here's todays foods....
Breakfast:
Raspberries & strawberries covered in coconut & vanilla greek yogurt topped with a microwaved Aldi Harvest Morn bebefit bar (HExB)
Mid-morning snack:
Green tea, apple & tangerine
Dinner:
Homemade vegetable soup (Potatoes, leeks, carrots, turnip, lentils, onion & stock)
Afternoon snack:
Melon & strawberries covered in vanilla Muller yogurt
Tea:
200g McCain Rustic chips (2syns), 2x LM Red Onion & Rosemary sausages, cheesy baked beans (HExA) & grilled tomatoes
Evening snacks:
Hot Chocolate (2syns)
Flump (2syns)
2x Mikado (1syn)
Small mint chocolate (3syns)
1x Benefit bar (HExB)
HExA - 30g Cheese
HExB - 2x Benefit bars

The yogurts are amazing! I had the lemon yesterday which is lovely too but not quite upto coconut and vanilla levels of amazingness!
Well done on your loss. At this stage it's amazing you're still getting a pound a week, and I'm sure you feel fantastic so slower results are a lot easier to take.
Someone asked about cupshotz, I had one yesterday a sweet and sour one and it was nice No idea from a SW point of view though.
Enjoy the rest of your week Emma! x

Good morning everyone, wahooo we're nearly at the weekend, Friday tomorrow!
So last night I went to a wedding fayre with 3 of my friends as Carly is getting married in December and I'm a bridesmaid. There was so many lovely things on show, it made me think about if/when I get married one day, I actually think I would be brideszilla, haha! I would want every perfect, as many brides do obviously. I mean it is your big day, but it also made me realise how expensive it can be, just for celebrating one day. Hopefully though I'll only ever get married once so it'll be worth it
There was a catwalk show with a range of brides, bridesmaid & Mother of the Bride dresses, and some of the brides dresses were amazingly beautiful. It made me want to go and try some on, :giggle:
Tonight I'm going to Kettlebells class and I'm looking forward to it. I'm getting back into my exercise routine finally. I think I'll take my measurements again tonight if I remember and compare them to the ones I done in November last year.
Mrs G - Have a great week too. I'm in love with the coconut & vanilla ones, before I tried them the lemon were my fav's but the coconut ones are now. I can't get enough of them, and they're so reasonably priced. I love Aldi. I'm going to try the cupshotz at the weekend see how different they are to the Mugshots

Good morning everyone, it's finally Friday! Woohoooo!!! The weekend is upon us. Roll on 4pm so that I can forget about work for 2 days and just chill out and relax.
So last night I went to Kettlebells class and I really enjoyed it. It's not as intense as Kettlecise, (You get a 15 second rest in between each exercise) but it's definitely good for toning, so I've booked onto that for next week
Must admit though, my back and legs are mega stiff this morning, but I'm sure half a day in a spa / treatment will be able to help that.arty0049:
Yep, that's right For my birthday in December, Liam bought me Half Day Spa day & 1x 45 minute treatment session at the Armathwaite Hall in Keswick and I've got it booked from 10am - 2pm tomorrow. I'm having a back, neck & shoulder massage with hot stones, and I cannot wait. I've been looking forward to it for 2 months now, woohooo!
So onto the SW related things, I really enjoyed my Red day yesterday, so I'm going to have another one today. I found myself not as hungry and I think it was due to the 2x HExB's. Going to have a green day tomorrow as I'm missing the carbs but so far I've had a great week, just hope the scales show that on Tuesday, haha. Listen me wishing my life away, it's only Friday FGS!
