Hi all,
I'm feeling so motivated just now and i'm scared that feeling will go away over time. I obviously have a LOT to lose, but the amount I have to lose to get to my target of 9 and a half stone just seems to mammoth a task that i'm scared i'll fail like I have all the other times i've tried this. This is also the first time i've really done it on my own without going to a class, and I know i've got you girls to support me, and that really helps, but I hate not having syn values to hand, and being able to go online to look stuff up and that's where I think i'll fall down too.
I also really struggle if I have to go out for lunch and hate having to have baked potatoes and beans all the time. Can I ask what you all eat if you're going out for lunch? Last week when I was up the town, at the shopping centre there was the choice of kfc, burger king, mcdonalds, aulds (a bakers), a pizza place, a chinese and the sandwich type place I reluctantly went to. All my family were having mcdonalds or kfc and it took so much willpower to get the baked potato and it was horrible in the end, with hardly any topping and was overcooked. I just felt so hard done by but my mum and sis were very proud of me. Then after a day of shopping, and my mum and sis fighting (which resulted in my mum storming off and getting the bus home!!) that's when me, my sis and the kids ended up going to a chinese buffet!!!
I didn't have nearly as much as I'd normally have and even had fruit for dessert instead of the profiteroles and gateaux that i'd normally have but still, I shouldn't have went there! :break_diet:
I need to be able to deal with going out without feeling like i'm being punished (which probably sounds a bit dramatic but that's how I feel at times)
Anyway, enough waffling from me...i'm tired and cranky and just needed a moan, so forgive me.
