rich tea biscuits are my absolute weakness - but same rules apply i can sit and eat the whole packet - i dunk them in sweet tea (well the old me did) ha ha
snack a jacks i love - and the popcorn too - last time i did ww i ate tonnes of those - im gonna try avoid the sweet stuff for a while.. i tend to binge horribly soon as i start eating "treat" type foods!! but will try add some in slowly when my loss kicks off!!
have a wicked weekend too hun xx

ok so the interview was a complete waste of time - so not the job or money they made it out to be!! ah well back to the drawing board.
on the upside i walked passes starbucks without buying a frapa and a muffin - my fave!! i gave myself a pat on the back!
instead when i got back home i made some chicken stock & broccoli soup with loadsa pepper - 0 points and yummy yummy!!!
just went to morrisons as well and all their fresh ww meals are half price so i stocked up on the fish pie and bangers n mash - love em.
Also packets of fresh mixed seafood (prawns, mussels & squid rings) half price too 1.50!! and only 1 point for half a pack - i love making seafood pasta dishes! mmmmm
its coming up to my horrible time of month too, so i bought a few flumps the 10p individually wrapped ones that will satisfy any sweet cravings for just 1 point... i walked passed the half prices reese's pieces and peanut butter cups - which for me was nothing short of a miracle - im right proud of myself!!
i think im getting ill so i have dosed myself up with cold and flu capsules and am curled up on the sofa - gonna have a few days off my exercise regime cos i think im coming down with a cold - not great on a weekend really!! looks like my weekend has become easily alchohol free which is a bonus and is usually my down fall for falling off any diet plans - i drink way too much then eat a kebab lol - i am gonna relax all weekend instead with my box set of "the wire" and try get better!
hope everyone has a great weekend xx

I am sorry the interview was a waste of time. Hope you get a job you like soon!
Well done for ignoring starbucks and having a 0 point soup instead! Yesterday at morissons I got pink and whites waffles which are 0.5 each and I recommend them for sugar cravings!
Enjoy your weekend!x

Hi, sorry for delayed greeting!
Just caught up with your diary - you're doing brilliantly, and varying your meals which is fab!
Just reading the words 'peanut butter' puts me into a craving - I don't allow it in the house, as, like you, it's all or nothing! mmmmmm Why does it have to be sooo damned high in points! lol
Good luck with finding a job - I know it's difficult but you can do it, just need to keep applying and realise that the right job is out there for you, you just need to find it
have a lovely weekend

thanks sharon ur a sweetie! i hope i find one soon, and in the mean time i can continue to focus on getting skinny lol
hope u have a fab weekend too and manage to stay good!! i know that scales gonna woosh for u next week!!! i love it when the numbers go down! i am praying they do!!
do you have a goal date for a particular weight or are you just generally trying to slim down? i feel like i need to ease off the pressure in my head a little - i think im expecting too much too fast!! im so impatient ha ha - wish i could go to bed and wake up a size 10 ha ha
yeah stay away from the peanut butter.. worst thing about me is though i will sit there with a spoon and eat the whole friggin jar - it doesnt even need to be on anything ha ha

DAY 4 (ha ha i feel like im in the big brother house)
OK so i woke up far too early for a saturday!!!! but hey im awake now so i just fixed myself some strawbs and yogurt cos i am going to the 11am Body Attack class at my gym .. actually my fave class - and i sweat so much in it that afterwards i know i have done good!!!
i think its about 4 or 5 activity points so its a good one - about 45mins cardio pretty high intensity and then upper body and abs for 15 mins - its a killer but well worth a try i really reccomend it
then after that I will be getting back in my pj's and watching the rest of season one of the wire!! i feel like having a lazy duvet day!!
hope you all have a fabulous saturday
love me xx

Hi
Thank you
Well - I did Cambridge Diet last year and got down to 10.3 (Sooo close to the 9s!) and I was almost happy with my weight! (TBH When are we ever happy!) but then I was a big size 12 - I'd like to be a normal size 12 I think. I think 'cos I did CD that the time losing on WW is taking ages, but I know it's more sustainable this way (she hopes!)
Oh yeah - Peanut butter, when I used to spread it (trowel it) on toast I used to just stick the knife in and eat it. Yummy! hahaha
