I've just ranted and raved on here for about half an hour and then my computer crashed and it didn't add my post, so I shall try again lol

I have set myself a mini goal. March 19th which is 6 weeks on saturday I have a very big night out planned. By that I want to lose 12 pounds (which is about 2 pounds a week), if I can lose more then great but 12 I would be very pleased with. Obviously I need to lose more than just 12 and will continue on the plan until I get to my ultimate goal but for now the mini goal is a good thing.

Also, I now need to improve my mind, body and spirit also as well as the general "up keep" of my body which isn't just about losing weight, I mean treating myself to the occasional spray tan etc.

So I need to write on here everyday, I'm falling into silly habits of having an extra round of nimble bread, thinking its the end of the world and not writing down what I ate- that stops today.
I will also now be adding what I did each day to improve my mind, body and spirit- whether that be going for a walk on my own (something which is a big deal for me), throwing out old clothes that don't look nice, learning something new, trying a new skin care regime etc etc

The first mini goal is 19th March, lose 12 pounds, look after myself, improve myself inside and out!

breakfast
2 fat free yogurts and pear

lunch
cous cous and veg curry and a banana

dinner
pasta, mushrooms, onion, bacon, campbells soup half can (7 syns) followed by fat free yogurt

b- cereal bars

mind,body and soul
I picked new wall paper to do up my bathroom, because it looks bloody awful and the sight of it upsets me. Nothing major for the first thing to make me happy inside and out I know, but I was visiting family tonight so the only thing I could think of to do was stopping in at B&Q on the way to visiting to pick how my bathroom will be decorated.

A- Milk
B-3 nimble bread

SYNS

Chocolate cake- 12 (at a guess, its 6 syns for 28gm and I had more than that)

Mind, body and spirit
I took down some old blinds that made my hallway look dull and I used the material to make new blinds for my bathroom. I also painted a wooden frame a different colour to match how I want my new bathroom. I sat and watched a dvd with my other half and didn't start playing with my phone or lap top part way through- which is something I always do!

double twix 14 syns (I only wanted a single one but ended up eating both)
pesto 1.5 syns

Mind, body and spirit
I had an evening all to myself upstairs while my other half played call of duty downstairs, i had a bath, exfoliated, relaxed, watched what i wanted on tv upstairs...bliss. (apart from the feeling of nausea from eating too much- could have been worse I suppose)
 
the syn situation has been dire this week! But I'm really impressed with myself for telling the truth on here regardless, normally I scoff and avoid here for a few days
 
So despite the dire syns situation (which just seemed to get worse as the week went on), I lost 2. Yay me!

Syns- 25- oh my good lord! if only I'd passed dessert- it wasn't even that nice and I struggled from the first bite because I was full but I was worried that I'd feel "left out" if I didn't order dessert too because my friends had
(guess work really, please correct me if I'm mistaken)
2 slices of white bread- 8
one scoop of vanilla ice cream- 5
One slice of blackcurrent cheesecake- 12

Mind, body, spirit
I socialised with my friends who I have not seen for a long time. It was nice spending time with them, but they made me have dessert, literally at gun point- I swear. So the mind and spirit was truly cared for but the body not so much...

Lunch
savoury rice, muller light

Dinner
beef in gravy, potato, vegetables

A- milk

Mind, body and spirit
spent time with my mum and dad. did my hair and picked something nice to wear for my meal out with work tomorrow (however, the meal out with work is bothering me slightly)
 
I stayed the same this week and I am not surprised, firstly it's star week and secondly I failed to count my syns from the moment I left work on friday night up until this morning!
And I did my usual sneaky trick and didn't come on here cos I knew I'd have to admit what I ate and drank.
amongst all the careful planning to ensure I ate free foods quite a lot of syn packed food sneaked its way in... I ate oven chips instead of being organised and making the syn free version like I normally always do, I made syn free fish cakes until I put breadcrumbs all over (granted using nimble bread), I had fish and chips for a meal out with work. I had custard and sponge THREE TIMES over the weekend and half a bar of aero (the big kind) everything else I ate from friday to sunday was free but those few things ruined any hard work and for that I stayed the same.

New week, new start and all that jazz
I walked into work today and fully intend on walking to the library later on today to kill two birds with one stone, one to get a book that will divert my eyes away from playing on facebook all night and two its about a 2 mile walk (from my place of work to the library and then home) so its good for me too

I would like to do the usual and do my weekly food plan, loosely based on what I am hoping to be eating this week.

Breakfast- fruit and yogurt
Lunch- tuna salad
Dinner- baked potato and tuna and egg salad
(thats a lot of salad and a lot of tuna!)

Lunch- cous cous and chick pea dahl
Dinner- quorn stir fry with egg noodles and boiled rice

WEDNESDAY
Breakfast- fruit and yogurt or porridge
Lunch- cous cous and chick pea dahl

THURSDAY
Breakfast- fruit and yogurt or porridge
Lunch- canned spaghetti and nimble toast
Dinner- salmon, risotto, brocolli (the other half can have chicken or steak- he doesn't do fish)

FRIDAY
Breakfast- fruit and yogurt or porridge
Lunch- savoury rice
