FernXx- Starting All Over Again.

[juicygooseface]

hi fern hope u dont mind me noseying around your diary! i love your attitude towards weight gain and you seem to know your priorities and not stress yourself out when you have a little blip which is great i put on a ridiculous amount whilst pregnant (about 4stone??) lol and it got to the stage that my daughter was 3 and i thought right theres no excuse now! unfortunately i left it too late and now have saggy belly! (c-section doesnt help!) but you are doing brilliantly so keep up the good work, hope u dont mind if i subscribe xxx

 

[Littleslimmingbee]

Yeah, stick around *waves*


So ladies, i went back to class this morning. Im feeling, odd. It was really nice to be back. My C had obviously missed me and the morning class was a completley different bunch to my evening group. Lots of new mummies and most of which who were now at target or very close, so that was really inspirational to see. My C was really good and im excited to go back next week.

Il be having my treat night with my bestie this evening and then im straight back on track tomorrow.

am feeling positive!


So my starting weight is official: 12stone 12 lbs exactly.. so we'v agreed there will be no setting weekly targets, just seeing how it goes so theres 9weeks till the big day, and baby is of course plumping up between now and then, so we'l just see. Im hoping il loose weight from elsewhere, but im not sure if the scales will reflect that. So we'l see how we go!

xx

 

[juicygooseface]

yay! *waves back* lol
good to hear your feeling positive about slimming world groups again, bet the new mums with babies made u feel all broody!
hope u have a great treat night with your bff, we all have 2 have our treats they make the being good much easier lol xxxx

Atleast now i can get back to sw online too, cos not having that access made finding syn values hard! .. iv decided to reset all my progress on there too. So iv set my start date as last week, and put my starting weight at 13st as thats what i guess is what i weighed last week, so Im taking it as a 2lb loss this week being that i weighed in at 12.12 today. so thats a good start!

Im knackered after group this morning. All that nattering has tired me out!!

 

[juicygooseface]

aww bless you! get your sleep in while u can lovey lol xx

Dont worry hun! We are all sticking behind you! Treat yourself once in a while. Thats what its there for!!!

I treated myself last night to 6 1.2 syns worth of chips with T! Oven cooked but extremely bad! hahaha! Didnt realised... how bad... but after i stopped myself munching on 2 slices of Pepperoni pizza at work which my whole department was eating for free i felt i deserved it!

So let it go girl!
Hope you and the bump are well X

So, i decided to try ASDA for my food shop this week. I usually shop at morrisons and average about £66 a week.. and we are in dier need of food when the week is up. The past 2 weeks iv been to Lidls in an attempt to save. I was very sceptical at first as i hate Lidl, the store, the food.. lol always clastraphobic, unorganised and generally full of weirdos and rude staff who practically throw your food at you. The first week i still spent 50quid, and the second week i did it for 34quid which i was pleased with, but due to having unexpected guests still spent a futher 28quid at tescos mid week :sigh: so i'v been fighting a loosing battle, saying that it's now thursday and i did that shop last monday/tuesday, so it has lasted just over a week but still.

Anyways, iv just bought the following for £41.10 including delivery (between 10-12 tomo) and im quite impressed. It was based on my original menu & shopping list above, but i got some extras based on deals so i can change it up a bit! As its being delivered tomo also, todays menu will have to changed based on whatever i have left in my cupboards lol which could be god knows what lol

so heres this weeks shopping list for anyone who is interested, thought it worth me keeping track of here as i never keep my recipts long enough to look back and know where im really saving my money!
1 A Bartlett Red Rooster Potatoes £1.00 1 Andrex Natural Rolls £1.97 1 ASDA Baking Potatoes £0.70 1 ASDA British sausages - beef 8s £1.50 1 ASDA Chicken Breast Fillets £3.33 1 ASDA Conference Pears £1.47 1 ASDA Extra Juicy Oranges £1.97 1 ASDA Farmhouse Sliced £0.70 1 ASDA Gala Apples £1.00 2 ASDA Lean Beef Mince £6.67 1 ASDA Mixed Peppers £1.00 1 ASDA Orangeade (Sugar Free) £0.47 1 ASDA Organic Onions - red £0.94 1 ASDA Salad Tomatoes £0.95 1 ASDA Smartprice British Carrots £0.76 1 ASDA Smartprice Passata £0.25 1 ASDA Spring onions £0.64 2 ASDA Strawberries £2.00 1 ASDA Tuna Chunks Brine £0.88 1 ASDA Whole Cucumber £0.80 3 Cadbury Highlights Milk Chocolate £1.00 1 I can't believe it's not butter Light Spread £1.00 1 KTC Red kidney beans - chilli £0.28 4 Light Fat Free Yogurt Orange Sprinkled with Dark Chocolate £2.44 1 Pom Bear Cheese & Onion £1.00 1 Total Greek Yogurt Fat Free 0% Strained £0.88

So nice to see you back, I used to read your old diary and think you sound nice and focused now and going back to group was such a smart thing to do. If you find the pressure of weighing in weekly you can always ask your consultant to keep your book.

Your menus look great. Keep up the good work.

Teresa

 

[Littleslimmingbee]

Aw thanks It is nice to be back in the swing of things properly. I feel like im in the right frame of mind now. I considered using my old diary on here, but i need to let go of my attachment to my old 'target' it just makes me feel guilty, so felt it better to start a whole new diary. Stick with me so you can keep an eye on me hey xox
