hey lou - pm'd you!

well done on the 2 stone loss - you're a trooper! x

 

[Kikikisses]

Look at you miss 100%! Chuffed for you. I really know what ya mean about those neutral days hehe, I'm just too darn picky.

 

[niknaks]

Hey lou. I got to 2pm and still hadnt decided what today would be. But ive settled on a red day. Not to sure what to have for tea mind.

Keep it up hun. xxx

 

[Louise24]

Haven't quite been as 100% today, I'll say 85% good, have been running round all day but not got anything achieved!!

Green day
B: Strawberries and quark
S: Loads of haribos (I don't even like them!!!!)(28g = 5 syns, I had a third of a 200g pack, so 15 syns?)
L: Pasta N' Sauce
S: Jacket potato (greedy but better than more haribos)
D: Egg, SW chips and baked beans

Ohhh bum, I've forgotten my B's again. Also - Haribos... well, I was dashing here there and everywhere, didn't get home until 14.30 to have lunch, so I ended up opening OH's pack of haribos in the glove box, picked and ate every single jelly baby in the blooming pack!!

Must do better - even though the scales have dropped, I'm going out tomorrow night for dinner and lots of drinks with OH, brother and his girlfriend.

Also - laptop is knackered, so won't be back on for a while. xxx

 

[Louise24]

Hello diary - I have been bad, hehe, but I had a great time doing it and the gain will be worth it.

I went out on Saturday night and got hammered (alcohol and food wise) and was paying for it most of yesterday, good news is that I'm back on plan again today and loving it. Ohh, also first day back at work today after 3 and a half weeks sick, only on 50% hours though.

Todays food...
B: 42g crunchy bran (A and B)
L: Pasta in homemade arrabatia sauce (2 syns for bacon)
S: Corn on the cob
D: Carrot and corriandor soup and toast (B)

Off to physio now xx

 

[prawnchopSuey]

Glad you enjoyed yourself on Saturday

It has to be done once in a while and if you manage to get straight back on track the next day, well done you !

 

[niknaks]

Don't worry about WI. Just plan your week ahead Lou. Bet your glad to be getting back into a routine.

xx

 

[Louise24]

I sooo don't want to go to WI tonight, I know I've gained.

However - I've been here before, I kid myself I'll miss a week and go back the next week, but I never do... so I'll be getting my slightly fatter backside back to class to face the music. I will be literally running out of there and back to the car though. Hehe.

I'm having a 100% day again today, but still pretty neutral so not sure what day it is yet?

B: 42g crunchy bran (B)
L: H/M carrot and corriander soup
S: Alpen light after WI (3 syns)
D: Probably... Poached egg and sw chips, or if I go red... Chicken salad

 

[NikkiP]

Dont worry chicken - half the battle is turning up to class when we know we have gained to face the music!! You know it will spur you on in the end and you will benefit from having gone. Good luck xx

 

[prawnchopSuey]

...Egg and chips, you know it makes sense

 

[Louise24]

With you on the egg and chips!!!

Anyhooo.... I put on weight, as expected, but oh my flipping word... I got away with only gaining 1/2 a pound, I was positive it was going to be more like 3 or 4lbs.

Wooo x

 

[Louise24]

Hello diary, well the gain is well and truelly behind me and I'm going to go all out and have a great week, I haven't got any nights out planned, so the are no excuses.... would like to get my 2.5 stone award by 24th, but won't be sad if it take a couple of extra weeks. I'm happy enough with the gain as I've been off work for last few weeks so have been really struggling to get structure to my day and to eat healthily.
