Morning
My OH has got a severe case of man flu and is hole up in bed. He's the sort of person that drags himself into work (as a mechanic) with a broken hand so it took a lot of persuasion for him not to go in today. He feels dizzy every time he stands up, can't really sleep properly, has sinus pain and is generally a man down. Poorly boy.
I'm finding walking a challenge this morning thanks to kettlebells lol! I hope work this afternoon is quiet and involves no running!
Breakfast
Cinnamon couscous and cherries (1syn)
Lunch
Pasta n sauce (HEX A) with extra veg and 2 mandarins
Tea
Spaghetti bolognaise and some melon
Snacks
Fruit salad of pineapple, apple, grapes and strawberries
2 ryvita and low low spread (HEX B)
Not sure on syns I've been at the high end all week and its first weigh in tomorrow so might keep it low with an alpen light for 3 and 1 for breakfast

Weigh in tomorrow and I'm really nervous. I an hand on heart say I've been 100% on plan, within syns every day with about 20 for the week spare. But TOTM has arrived and I don't know how that will affect my weigh in. First one fully back on and I NEED a good loss or I can imagine me becoming really demotivated and saying 'sod it' again. If I had a TOTM weigh in a few weeks in it would be easier to manage but for the first one I wanted a fair crack at it.
Oh well will let you know how I get on xx

Well I lost 3.5lbs. I'm pleased as I'm back to what i was before I went off track. Only thing was the C forgot me during IT. I didn't feel confident enough to speak up and say 'hey what about me!' As its a massive group with people that are friends and really close. As much as I find the clapping a bit embarrassing I wanted some recognition for my first week on plan and my loss. Oh well. I think this group will be difficult to fit into but I'll persevere.
I've got 34 syns left for the week so we're having a curry instead of fish. Chicken rogan josh with no oil, boiled rice and a chapati. I'm counting it as 20 syns (7.5 for chapati and 13 for the curry as they tend to be double the standard portion size as what SW syns things at!)

Thank you! Yes I'm pleased with the loss especially given the TOTM issue lol.
I'm just a bit disappointed about being missed. I know it sounds pathetic but it sort of undermined what I've achieved. My lack of confidence meant that I might as well have paid the £5 and gone home than sit there and feel like an outsider at a social event. Ugh I need to shake this feeling off so I can keep focused.
I've just done meal plans for the the next week and I'm looking forward to some of the meals
the OH has requested burgers one night and fajitas another so I've incorporated them into it.
New week, aiming for another 3.5lbs to get my half stone award x

i know what you mean about the class thing...and it's not pathetic at all. it's hard enough going to a class but you'll find your feet eventually. don't let it stop you in any way....the 3.5 off is for you and although you might not have gotten the recognition in class....you can have it from me:
:happy096: lol
not the same...but the thought's there x

Happy Friday!!
Last day in work after a 6 day stretch...back on Sunday but I am so looking forward to my day off!
I'm feeling pleased with my curry night last night, stayed within weekly syns and it was bloody gorgeous! Never had rogan josh before. I asked for no oil and it was much nicer than my OH's his was swimming in the stuff.
Depending on how he's feeling we might be going to the cinema tonight to watch Dark Skies but I will be avoiding the pick and mix!
Breakfast
Choc orange shreddies, and some cherries (HEX B)
Lunch
5 spice chicken breast, pasta and salad
Fruit salad of apple, melon, pineapple and strawberries
Tea
Soy sauce and chilli cod, rice and broccoli
Syns/ snacks
Creme egg cornetto for 8 syns and a small glass of wine = 14 syns

Damn the evil pizza companies lol. Managed to resist and have the cod which was quite nice. Fish is never gonna be my favourite but I'm trying to incorporate into my diet more as its a super speed food.
Didn't have the wine or creme egg cornetto instead I had some vimto sweets (6syn) and some rum and raisin ice cream (5 syns)

Breakfast
3 skinny lizzies, bacon, beans, omelette (1.5yns)
Lunch
Mugshot and mandarins
Tea
5 spice sticky chicken and noodles
Snacks
Ryvita and low low cheese (HEX A&B)
