I've just realised that my profile lists my height as 4'8''. It's actually 5'6'' and that's what I wrote and still is written on my profile details when I go to edit them. Can anybody help? It's only a number but seeing my BMI as 56 as a result annoys me, I've got enough to lose as it is!!!

Hello (is there anyone reading actually?)

Well, I'm not doing very well this week, I can't seem to get focused. Every morning I'm trying to get back on track but by lunchtime it all goes pear shaped. I don't really know why, my daughter has started to go to a childminder and I've been going backward and forward to school to get ready to start again after a full year of maternity leave on monday

Anyway, I'll still make a list of what I've eaten today:

Breakfast:
2 slices warburtons (HEB)
42g low low (HEA)
1 banana

Lunch (at school):

Lasagne (small portion, didn't seem too oily, maybe 5 syns?)
2 small roast potatoes (very dry and black, 3 syns?)
1 rice crispies cake (6 syns?)

Snacks:
2 slices warburton (6 syns)
2 slices parma ham (1 syn)
Low low cheese (haven't weighed it but was approximately the same as this morning so 6 syns)
apple

Dinner:
Home made beef burger
one wholemeal bun (6 syns)
1 tbsp extra light mayo (1 syn)
cucumber, lettuce, tomatoes
pasta and sauce made with water
pear, cherries
1 mini milk (1.5 syns)
1 less than 70 calories aldi cereal bar (3.5 syns)

TOTAL: 39 syns

I feel horrified to have eaten so many bad stuff but at the same time I'm really struggling not to eat some more bread right now...and if there was chocolate in the house I would probably be already eating it.
Oh well, I think I'll go to bed, this way I won't be able to eat anymore...

I haven't done very well this week, couldn't seem to get focused and as a result, I've put on 0.5 lbs.
From next week, I'll be weighing in on Tuesday night instead of Friday lunchtime as I'm back at work (which is probably the reason for putting on weight).
I'm not expecting a loss on the scales next week as I usually weigh about 2 pounds more in the evening but I'm working on a week and a half scale.
I have bought the Curry Heaven book and I'm planning a curry feast for this weekend, probably Sunday as I'll be out tomorrow lunch and my husband won't be in in the evening (watching the World Cup in the pub!).

I'm really struggling to fill in my diary everyday at the minute, just need to get used to worklife again!
I now eat lunch at school (free lunch for teachers eating in the canteen!!!) and in general I stick with jacket potato with tuna or cheese with salad.
For breakfast I tend to have a wholemeal bun with ham or cheese as it's quick to do and eat in the morning with some fruit and yogurt if I have time. In the evening I'm fine sticking with Slimming world friendly dinners. I find I don't snack anymore (no time anymore!!!) and I don't even get that hungry in between meals so I'm pleased with that.
Anyway I lost 1lbs this week and I'm pleased with it.
