I need to get to 10st by Xmas!

[claireyfairey]

Good morning all I've had a few diaries here before, but wanted to start a new one to keep me motivated I am currently 10st 6lbs (have lost 8lbs so far) and would like to get to 10st by Xmas I know I'm bound to put a little on over the Xmas period, but before it begins in earnest I want to shift this half stone to give me a bit of a safety net to play with. My final target is 9st 7lbs so I hope I can achieve that in the new year. The next few weeks are going to be stressful as I have a lot of uni work to complete (am in my final year of a Batchelors of Education degree - Early Years and KS1) and I have a 5 year old daughter to entertain too Anyhow, welcome to the madness, here's Day One! (I weigh on a Thursday evening).

Day One

HEA 350ml Skimmed milk

Breakfast: 1 slice wholemeal toast (HEB) with 1 tsp flora light (1 syn) and marmite, 1 pear and 1 vanilla shape 0% yogurt (1/2 syn).

Lunch (will be): Tuna salad (lettuce, cucumber and tomato) tuna in 2 tbsp ex light mayo (2). Cous cous. 2 satsumas.

Dinner (will be): Spaghetti bolognaise with extra lean beef mince, carrots, onion, tomatoes, garlic, herbs and a sprinkling of gravy granules for flavour (2 syns).

Snacks: 1 vanilla and chocolate shape 0% yogurt (1 syn). 1 apple.

TOTAL SYNS: 6.5 syns
