Food for today:
B - 2 shredded wheat
L - tin wonton soup
2 ryvitas
Yoghurt
Banana
D - jacket potato
1/2 tin WW beans
40g low fat cheese
2 litres of water
Its my last weigh in at classes tonight, I have to say I won't miss going to class. Won't miss the stress I felt going there or the Leader and her little condesending ways (although I accept that might just be me being paranoid), but theres only so many weeks you can take being to "you must try harder next week" or " don't eat any of your bonus points"!!
From tomorrow going to go it alone at home. I have millions of cook books, have printed off hundreds of WW receipes, have all the leaflets from class so I think I will be ok, and I have this forum (which has been invaluable to me so far). Going to have Friday morning weigh ins in future, my Mum is going to weigh me first thing and I will make a note of the weight and losses/gains on a spreadsheet.
Any top tips for doing it alone would be gratefully received!
The one thing I am not sure about is that in the morning I always weigh less than at night, so tomorrow morning, there will be a difference between what I weighed tonight and what I weigh in the morning, how do I record this - do I do it as a loss for the first week? Not sure how to handle that one?

I would just record it as a loss for the first week, and then it'll be consistent from then, i'm sure there'll be a small variation between the WW scales and your own, so once the first week is done, you'll be consistent from there using the same time of day and same scales.
Good luck - I would say if you're going it alone than don't stray from these boards!!

Thanks Jenny, thats what i was thinking I would do then from next week it will right it self (if that makes sense), I need to make sure that I always weigh myself on my scales until I get to goal weight (unless they give up the ghost before because Ive taken so long to get there :sigh

Absolutely! My ex personal trainer is always telling me, that 1/2 lb a week loss equals 2 stone over the year, sounds so much better that way!

it was my weigh in last night, I honestly thought I was going to burst into tears, I put on 1.5lbs! And I don't even know where I went wrong! Even the leader said that she had rung out of ideas for me, she said that I looked like I had lost weight, that my skin and hair looked great and I looked really healthy, I said that I had never felt so well. Really upset me. I did point my Core week this week and each day I was eating less points than I would have had I been on Points (if that makes sense), don't know if thats had an effect.
Anyway I am trying not to dwell on it today, I attended my last meeting last night, so my mum weighed me in this morning, theres a 4.5lb difference between what I weighed last night and this morning, hence why my ticker shows a great loss, this will rectify itself next week. Mum going to do my weigh ins each Friday morning from now on.
Onwards and upwards!!!

So I change to points from tomorrow, I'm actually looking forward to it now, Ive tried to concentrate on thinking about all the foods that are easier to eat on points than Core and that seems to be working. Ive planned my food for the whole week and go some lovely stuff in store for me. Bring on kickstart week................

Hey Lydia
Sorry to hear you have gained hon - it must be so frustrating bearing in mind how well you are doing.
I just wonder if this is muscle gain - I can't remember if I've asked you, are you measuring yourself? Do you think you are smaller than you were?
Good luck for this coming week on points.
