Holiday Slimdown Diary

[kirstiecake]

Hello! I began Slimming World on Monday, I'm hoping to lose 2 stone before I go on holiday with the boyf (who is a stick!) and I thought I'd post my diary on here. Any criticisms/tips would be appreciated! I'm 5'9 and weighed 12 stone as of Monday. I'm a 19 year old law student at Southampton

So far this week I've had less than 5 syns a day, had 2 red days and 2 extra easy. I went to the gym twice as well and did 30 mins on the cross trainer both times.

Friday 23rd March - Red day

B: 30g strawberry weetabix minis (HEX B 1), banana and custard muller light, a big banana

L: pizza omelette! 2 egg omelette with milk (HEX A 1), roasted mushrooms, red pepper and orange pepper, 30g cheese (HEX A 2) and a lemon hifi bar (HEX B 2)

D: chicken breast with lots of salad.

Syns: 1 Alpen light bar (3) 1 Activia banoffee pot (1)
Cooked fried wedges and steak for OH, ended up having two little wedges and a teeny piece of steak. Never tried it before...not a fan! TOTM though so don't think this was too bad as a "bad" day!

Saturday 24th March - Red day

B: 1 Alpen light bar (3 syns) 1 toffee mullerlight, 1 banana, coffee with skimmed milk (HEX A 1)

L: chicken breast, salad, fruit

D: 200g pasta (HEX B 1 & 2) free sauce (onions, passata, tinned tomatoes with herbs/spices blended) apple, grapes

Syns: 8.5

[edit] arghhh so annoyed. thought I'd read somewhere that a cadburys fudge bar (the small ones) were 3 syns, turns out theyre 5.5. had one because I fancied a little treat I don't even like fudge that much!

Well this is the plan anyway. Leaving Southampton today, going to OH's house and I always overeat there determined not to this time though!

Thank you! Wow just seen your stats, your progress is amazing!

Had a perfect week til today :/

Sunday 25th March - Extra easy

B: muller light strawberry, banana, coffee + sweetener + milk (0.5 syns)
L: small skinny latte from costa (HEX A) jacket potato, baked beans
S: 2 Alpen light bars (HEX B)
D: some SW roasted potatoes, a vanilla muller light...

Also ate a couple of champagne truffles. Don't know how many syns but I've had 5 or less all week until the weekend (8.5 yesterday, god knows today) and I did have one day this week which was red day and had no syns at all. So I think, fingers crossed, I can get away with it. Weigh in at group tomorrow eek :/

Not going to group tonight now, Mum doesn't fancy it and we only joined last week so don't want to go on my own had a really bad day too, bank refused to give me a bigger overdraft so I can't pay my summer rent, and then my flip flops cut into my feet big time on the walk home. Then I realised I'd have to swap to a red day halfway through eating my lunch! Sigh.

Hey, think you did quite well with the Chinese really! Is your weigh in usually Tuesdays then? I weigh tommorow and although I feel slimmer I don't think the scales are going to agree x

 

[Purpled]

Hope your first WI goes well!

What's your goal weight? I'm same height as you but 12lbs heavier! I wanna fit into my size 13 jeans and I was 11stone when I fit into them last time!

Well done so far! Looks. Brill! I started yesterday but switched from ww! So my WI day is Monday too!

Hey sorry forgot about this website! My goal weight is somewhere between 9 and a half/10 stone I think. How's it going?

I weigh on Monday mornings now the scales aren't always accurate though, anything can affect them even if you've had salty food which causes water retention! If you look/feel slimmer that's more important! x

Been a bit absent from this but I have managed to lose 11 lbs in 6 weeks, really hoping to pull off a 3lb loss this week to bring me a 1 stone in 7 weeks! I know SW say its roughly 6 weeks per stone but it was easter after all...and 7 weeks is actually more healthy as it's an average of 2lbs a week keeping motivated!
