Journey to a mummy

[mummywillbe]

Here I am all 14 stone 5lb of me starting my sw journey to become slim and hopefully a mummy. After several tests and visits to the doctors I have been given a target of 2 stone to lose ASAP so that I can start my treatment and continue to lose the further 2 stone I need to be healthy.

Just popping by to subscribe and say good luck! I'm losing weight for the same reasons as you - desperate for a baby and no luck yet. :/ Hoping it'll happen naturally but if not want to make sure that I'm at least part way to losing the weight needed to get treatment. Hopefully we will both get what we want soon! x

You look like you're doing fine - keep on eating lots of lovely superfree, especially on EE days and read other people's food diaries for inspiration and ideas. I only do green days but you are welcome to come look at mine if it helps.

 

[mummywillbe]

Hi missy thank you for your advice I will pop over and subscribe to yours keep each other on track nice that someone else is on sw for same reasons and I hope it happens for you too

Just off to aqua now x

 

[missy1978]

No worries! Keep doing lots of home cooking, lots of superfree and follow the plan and you'll have lost the weight in no time. I think there's a few of us on here losing weight to TTC so you're not alone by any means, it is nice to find people who have the same motivation you do though! x

 

[mummywillbe]

Just got back from my hours aqua well don't think iv laughed so much whilst exercising was a really good class I have no idea how many calories iv burnt but I worked hard.

As a treat I had a mini meringue 2.5 syns and a shape 0% yoghurt so total syns today is 14 syns the highest iv had so far but still within limit

Got a 5 mile Walk to work tomorrow so off to bed fore me

 

[mummywillbe]

LM sausages - depends on which ones you have. The red onion and rosemary sausages are free, Italian are 0.5 syns and the normal ones are 2 syns.

Don't forget to have your syns - we all need nice treats! Mine today are a posh yogurt, a cereal bar and a nice coffee out A lot of people say they lose more consistently when they eat most of their syns but I guess it's different for all of us x

 

[Nellylou]

I do have a diary but I'm afraid it's quite boring, mainly just me struggling to loose this last 2 stone. It's called nellylou - 2 stone to go I can do it with sw
I'm sure the exercise will have a good affect on weight loss this week. Appointment booked for end of aug! You must be so excited x

 

[mummywillbe]

Just for home from my walk 4.5 miles done and my poor old feet know it lol

Just checked the sausages and there weight watchers so I think they'll be pointed I'm going to enjoy a curly wurly and a refresher ice Lolly ?

That will be good, really struggling at the mo - need someone to check up on me I've had all tests scan etc, specialist said come back when BMI is below 30! I just need to write to him and he will refer me.

How were the weight watchers sausages? Haven't tried them before x

 

[mummywillbe]

Il keep a check on you then Nellylou if you do me

The sausages were lovely even hubby agreed and anything low fat he moans at.

Was naughty and checked scales when i got home from walk and it showed 14.1.9 but then this morning 14.3.2

I know I shouldnt check untl saturday and now really wish i hadnt lol

Todays menu - not feeling food today come down with hubbys cold and my throat is like razor blades and ache all over.

B: Shape 0% yoghurt, special k bar HEXB apple - may eat these through the day depending on throat

L:

D: Jacket potato, salad and beans - at my friends so shes cooking tonight

 

[Nellylou]

Hope you start to feel better soon. I'll give the weight watchers ones ago (bf the same re low fat food) he does love sw chips though! try really hard not to weigh till sat, it's frustrating when the scales differ so much x

 

[missy1978]

Definitely don't weigh in early! It can really mess with your head if you think you see a gain. It's hard to wait til proper weigh in day but so much better for you x

 

[mummywillbe]

Thanks both on the sofa today my bodies given up lol

Won't be looking again until tomorrow and then not again until Saturday's it's so disheartening

Last nights dinner was salad jacket and low fat cottage cheese with a tiny bit of butter
