Hi Guys
Many apologies I haven't been SW friendly due to illness but I am back on it this week I just haven't had a second to come on here and update things. First update I have left group, I am returning to it but atm I just can't justify spending the money on SW group as I am struggling to pay my bills and that £20 a month could be used on something else so currently doing it at home on my own and I am soooo missing the app I miss quickly looking up syn values but I have the book from group and Minimins to help me. Also due to finances I am really struggling to buy SW friendly food not including this past Friday the 3 previous Fridays my shopping list has been milk, bread, potatoes and pet food. I have been making meals out of my not SW friendly freezer running it down to restock it with SW food. I did do a good shop this last week which is why I feel like I can be on SW this week because I have the right ingredients (literally lol) to stay on track. I have however just calculated my syns for this week and I have gone over by 18 oops lol also I dared to step on the scales yesterday...wish I hadn't I am disgusted in myself I swore I would never return to the 20s but I was weighing in at 20st 4lbs yesterday...I am not taking this too seriously as I haven't eaten well last few weeks and also its star week. I just can't wait to get back on track 100% (being naughty with water and green teas) but once the weight starts dropping off I think I will become more determined its just been a while since I've seen a loss. I go on holiday to Butlins May 18th and I'm hoping by May 15th (weigh in before I go) to have lost a stone.
Oh btw I'm back to weighing in on Fridays

Try not to worry too much, you will get there in the end. When things look a bit better try your local market, you will get some great bargains that with a bit of work/prep will have you fill your freezer. I actually used the last bag of white cabbage Sunday from a football sized bargain I got a few months ago for 50p! Also, if you have a Aldi near you look out for the money off coupons/vouchers that come in the Daily Mirror occasionally, Morrisons have some good buys on veg at times too 50p items if you have one of those. Don't forget to check the reduced section too, you can buy and freeze that day you can save money that way too. These are all things I've done myself to save money
