Kikikisses - Well hello there target!

Hi Kikikisses, glad to see you're still doing well. I find green days very filling too and always seem to put too much pasta in the saucepan because it doesn't look much in it's dried form :D But I do stop eating if I'm full, that's definitely one thing I've picked up.

I'll look out for your weigh in result on Saturday but you're doing so well I'm sure you'll have a good one :)
 
Thanks for your sweet reply :) I did weigh out my pasta because I'm useless at guessing by eye what I'll actually eat.

Ever since I was little I was taught to clear what was on my plate, I definitely don't do this anymore hehe!
 
Thanks abz had a wee peek at your photos and your wedding dress is/was stunning! Grats on the pregnancy :)
 
thanks hon. i sure as hell won't fit in that again for a while... not that i need to, but, you know. hoping it will fall off me one day :)
 
Oh my what a day.

Every day at college I have a lunch I'd made the previous day or earlier that morning, I make a point of this as it saves money and means I don't have to guess on syns etc.

Today my friends decided we'd go into town to have lunch which makes me cringe either way because all the restaurants in town winge and kick you out if you eat your own food which would make sense if 3 of the 4 people eating there hadn't already bought lunch from the restaurant. So my friends decide on, oh yes McDonalds *cry* so in we go and settle down I open my fresh salad and handful of grapes and tuck in whilst the smell of fast food lingers around me. They tuck into their lunch telling me how it is so delicious, not to taunt me but in general enjoyment of their so called yummy lunch. After this they decided to get pick n mix *sigh* as if they hadn't had enough naughty treats to stick under my nose and we all joke about it.

An hour later and they all complain how sick they feel and how tired they feel. I laugh heartilly at them HAHA! Is a shame I have to listen to their whinging when I never object to going to places where they can have naughty foods.

Either way today I feel so strong! I have beaten the urge to have naughty food, I really don't care for it!
 
well done babes :) must be a great feeling :) haven't been in that situation myself yet. probably will be saturday night when a lot of my friends are going bowling. no doubt fast food will be involved. i may have to take a snack :)
 
Yes yes! I highly recommend taking something quite sweet like an alpen light bar or something, 2 of those are a HEb which is fab. I always eat before I go out in the evening so I don't feel my tummy calling me to the food :p
 
You're developing a will-power of steel! It's so very hard in the moment when you're sitting there watching others indulge themselves, for me it's almost a physical pain that I get when my green-eyed monster feels deprived. But then as you describe, the feeling you get afterwards - when the threat has gone and you are still intact - it's almost euphoric.
I guess it's kind of smug too, but I think we deserve a little smugness once in a while considering the journeys we're all making.
Keep on keeping on - you're doing great.

Thanks CyberRuby! Yes Eurphoric is how I'd describe it :)

Had a good day today food wise, was wonderful. College was quite productive and though the weather for walking home was a disgrace I was feeling very bright and happy.

Don't think weigh in this week will be anything amazing, not from being naughty but just because I've been felling bloated and a little de-motivated by the thought skinny people can still eat crap and not gain weight. It's not even star week anytime soon so hope the bloated feeling ******* off.
 
Had a sneaky weigh in this morning cause I was curious and it's not looking great :/ looks like it could be a STS despite my efforts of doing only red days and one EE day. So today I bit the bullet and just had a green day, I don't want to restrict myself because that's not what SW is about.

Despite the scales not being so friendly the measuring tape is very friendly. Did some measuring and I've lost around the top and wrist area of my arms, my waist, my hips, my thighs and my bust! I won't reveal the measurements just yet but am pleased. I've been taking on board everyone's advice on the forum and seeing a STS or a slight gain as just part of the journey and measuring seems to do the job far better. Gonna leave it another 6-8 weeks before I pick up the measuring tape again because the changes will be far more motivating :)
 
Hi Kiki,

Sounds like you are doing brilliantly hun, you are sooooooo motivated and have good willpower.

I had to turn down an afternoon socialising with people from work today, it was a drinking session and I'm not one for just going and having one or two drinks, or none at all, I love socialising, so I just didn't go. I made the excuse that I couldn't afford it.

Keep going, you are giving me inspiration. x

Awww see there's willpower if you don't go to a situation where you know you'll be naughty. Perhaps instead of going all out and going out why not have pals over, then you decide what comes into your home and can remind others not to bring big bottles of booze :p


Any way today I thought I'd get a sts or a gain and... I lost 1lb! friggin fabulous!

That means 1 more and I get my 1 stone award :D!!!

I am very excited as I've been so stressed this week from college stuff and all my friends having a bad time that I've been borderline obsessed with my eating which probably isn't good for my body. I've decided this week I'm gonna relax a bit more and enjoy a few green days in with my red and EE.
 
Fab..... this time next week, I'll be expecting to see a shiny new sticker, hehe. Well done x
 
Thanks Louise and Abz :) I hope I'll get my shiney sticker next week!

Went to my friends birthday party today, started at a pals house and whilst they all had naughty bbq food I stuck to my salad and grilled chicken along with a fruit salad for dessert.

I had 3 vodkas and diet cokes which is well within syn allowance I believe (3.5 syns each isn't it??). Also made sure I gave my body plenty of water and resisted any sugary cocktails I was offered.

I noticed how people look at me different now, I get nicer guys approaching me and not just the ones who don't think they can do better. Also girls seem to accept me more in clubs which is weird.
 
I'm sure - although I may be wrong... that vodka is 2.5 syns a measure. However, if i was pouring my own, my measure would be worth 10 syns!!
Sounds like a great party, well done on sticking to your healthy food. x

Sorry for double post but thought I'd post a picture from last nights party.

Last night I resisted burgers, cupcakes, jammy tarts, copious amounts of booze, chocolate and kebabs.

I feel far better for it :)
