Hi i'm laura and i started slimming world on 13th july 2009. My starting weight was 12st 4lbs. My target weight is 9st 7 - 9st 10lbs (depending on how i feel when i reach it). Monday nights are my weigh nights and i will be weighing in tonight.

So far i have lost 1st 1.5lbs (until last week it was 1st 3lbs!) last week was my first gain of 1.5lbs put i had eaten a lot that i shouldn't as i was away. i would like to reach the 2st stage by 21st December which is 12.5lbs so not sure if i can achieve this!

If nobody minds i am going to start a food diary as of tomorrow (tues 3/11/09) to see if it helps as recently my motivation has been swaying!

Tuesday 3/11/09 - Red Day

Started the day with banana and natural yogurt and hot (sugar free) orange squash.

I bring my lunch to work and have brought ham, bread (heb) and a laughing cow light triangle. Snacks will be an apple and a toffee mullerlight.

I'm planning on going to the gym after work then tea is going to be pork, new potatoes (heb) and veg. Might syn a bit of gravy.

I have a few treats left i bought for trick or treaters (and didn't even get any!!) so may have one of them later. I might use it as a reward to motivate some studying!

Good morning Laura - and welcome to the forums...

Get posting regularly on here and people will be as supportive as they can

You have done so well with only 1 gain since you started and you know the reason why, so that is even better.. there is nothing worse than having a gain when you have been good !!

Have a great day and enjoy the gym

i realised for the first time last night just how much weight i had put on over the past few years (obv i knew i had put weight on but just not realised the extent of it until i tried some old clothes on) and it gave me the motivation to carry on with my slimming.

last night i had a cheese and bacon toastie (HEA & B) and two treat chocolates (6.5 syns in total) and they were my only syns all day but then i started feeling guilty for eating chocolate even though i was in my syn allowance, i need to get rid of these thoughts!

Today i've started with weetabix and 2 tsp of sugar (2 syns & hea & b)

i'm going to do an extra easy today as having gammon and sw chips for tea and pasta for dinner.

Finishing work early so might go for a swim after work

let me add up the syns i've had today...

b: coco pops (HEA and 5.5)
s: alpen light (half heb going to have other later if hungry) apple, banana & clementine
l: pasta from boots (just checked the syns on slimming world website calculator and it's 9! i hope i've done it right!)
s: grapes
t: chinese (oops) boiled rice, battered chicken and sweet and sour sauce and a few prawn crackers! about 17.5 syns i think so thats a total of 32!

And i may have a glass of wine later! i think tomorrow and monday may need to be syn free!
