Hi
I thought i would start a diary / blogg on my weight losses and gains, something to fill the time instead of snacking on naughty foods, going over my points etc.
OK so my name is Becci, yes it is a odd way to spell it but when i was at school, having a girl also called becky who's birthday was the day before mine we decided to make our names different.....Mine which i have stuck with is Becci and hers Becki.....Yes i know not much different but when your 13, it makes all the differance lol
I am a 29 woman just in case you were wondering, i live in a sleepy village in North wales call Rhuddlan just outside (and i stress to everyone OUTSIDE Rhyl) i live there with my better half, Darren, 2 Goldfish Elvis and Cliff and extra cute Hamster called "On Bong"
I have done slimming world last year and dropped 3.5stone, but then xmas came and i found it really hard to get back on track, so much so i gained the 3.5stone and some more...... Ive been getting more and more down about it and fed up, as well as me putting on weight Darren has also gained a lot of weight since we have been together 2.5 years ...... He too is fed up and wants to lose the weight. A friend of our has been doing WW for a while now and is doing really well, i cant believe how well.....So i thought i would give WW a go.
The last time i did WW was when i was 20, it was the old points system then which was ok but i didnt stick at it for long..... So this time i am going to give it my all!
So i have been doing this for nearly 2 weeks now, i missed last weeks weigh in as i was coming back from Devon early that morning, i could of made it in time but i stopped in mac d's on the way for breakfast and ate like a pig!!! i made sure i added it all to my food log. I am looking forward to this week to see how i have done. Also i have make a planner for the fridge so we both know what is on the menu from day to day as i am fed up of having to ask Darren what does he want for tea / lunch / breakfast, also i hope that if he beats me home he might stick the ready meal in the oven to help out....haha thats wishfull thinking!
One thing that has been on my mind this week is PASTA
Do you weigh out the pasta uncooked and point or do you cook then weight and point....... i weighed out 500g of uncooked pasta last night for our lunches this week then weighed once cooked and drained, it now weighs a massive 1.285kg lol We only use 125g of cooked pasta each a day of having pasta salad.....i think i have enough for a month
I am just off into a meeting ....have a good day all..
