Hmmm, well I've only had 68 syns for the whole week (one day I only had 2.5 and another day 5.5) haven't used HEXs some days (not good, and certainly not intentional, but does save syns) and had 2 really long walks (8-10 miles each). And also I had such little of the cake in work I intentionally overestimated the syns to be safe! I did kick myself for having it, but then again we are allowed syns last time I checked!! So I actually feel that I've been completely on track this week and will actually be really disappointed if I don't lose tonight!! :break_diet:XXX

Soooo guys, I lost 1/2lb! It's in the right direction, so I'm not DISpleased, but I do feel that the effort I've put in has deserved a bigger loss!! And I feel like I've lost weight by my clothes etc!! Maybe it was the piece of cake afterall, but I'm genuinely convinced it's more to do with fluid retention after my night shifts! I weighed on my home scales today and they were showing 3lb up from friday before my nights, and nights always do it to me! Every cloud though.. having a small loss will keep me on my toes this week! I know how my mind works- if I'd had a big loss I would probably have relaxed a bit too much! This will keep me mega-focused for a good loss next week!! I'm feeling positive and in the zone!! XXX

You'll do itI go home in the mornings from nights and my tummy doubles in size and I get sock marks around my ankles from all the fluid. Nights just aren't natural at all. When you have a day off next go for another long walk and flush it all out

Thanks Ali!! Nice to have someone around who understands! Sometimes I feel like I'm making excuses for myself but nights really do cause retention!! Good advice too about walks etc XXXX

Trying - very!
Well done Heather. A half off is a good loss after night shifts! So don't be too disappointed. At least it's in the right direction - unlike me. I feel even heavier today - still really bloated and I drank loads of water yesterday and had lots of melon. Oh well, back to basics today methinks.

Thanks Bev! Oh well don't let it get you down! You had a good time and this week lots of water, melon, superfree/superspeed and walking/swimming will reduce the bloat and get you a loss next week! I'm so focused right now it's unreal! My goal for next week is 2lb which will make me my lowest yet! X

Week 95- Day 1 (Tues)- Extra Easy.
Breakfast- 28g Shredded Wheat Bitesize (HEXb) with 150ml skimmed milk (3/7 HEXa) and a sliced banana.
Lunch- Went to local pub- Cajun spiced hake fillet with jacket potato and roasted vegetables (allowing 10 syns for this as I think there was oil involved in the cooking).
Snack before choir- 1/2 tin baked beans with some brown sauce (1 syn). A few cherry tomatoes. 2 small plums and a small apple (all from neighbour's garden- not the baked beans though lol!)
After choir- Small helping of beef (rolled chuck) freshly cooked in slow-cooker with a small portion of SW chips cooked in Actifry with a little garlic-infused olive oil (1.5 syns- used 1 tbspn oil but ate 1/4 of the chips). Emphasis on small portion here as not that hungry after a big pub lunch! Some strawberries and a vanilla/choc sprinkles Mullerlight.
Semi-skimmed milk in 3 cups of tea (part HEXa).
Total syns 12.5.
