Hey Zanna! Well my first week i found it quite easy to get into i had the week off from work, so it gave me chance to concentrate on getting used to the plan. i planned every meal out for the week and made sure i stuck with it. Still let myself have little treats throughout the week so i didn't feel like i was depriving myself from the sweet stuff! But i noticed the choices i was making had changed, instead of going for a bit of chocolate i seemed to keep picking up fruit instead because i didn't like the thought of just wasting syns. Also i was exercising for 20minutes a day! I must admit though i feel like i've been slipping the past couple of days, i went back to work and with the shift patterns i have to do im just too tired to start cooking and preparing food for taking to work each day. BUT i have got this new 'My Fitness Pal' app on my phone where i have been logging the amount of calories i've been taking in. Surprisingly though i've always stayed under 1500. But i've found myself craving pancakes all the time right now :cry:
I am now doing the same as you, just going to concentrate on losing half a stone at a time
i like the thought of getting the little stickers and certificates for each award, so im going to work towards getting most of them including the fitness ones
Good Luck with your weight loss! Hopefully we will both get to where we want to be by next summer on the SW plan :cross:
