Hey Gem

I can totally relate to you. I admit i am quite obsessive and the oh as well as alot of other people have said the same things to me which is very upsetting... i think the reason why they do or did is because before SW i was on a very low cal diet and then exercised quite alot but since my friend intoduced me to sw i have stuck to it and STS every week (apart from when i let my hair down whilst on holiday but even then i was stressing every day and as soon as i got back i got straight back on plan) and i think i am eating very healthly but its still hard to let go of the obsession and the honast worry that you are going to pile it back on :-(

u have done so fab at the moment thou so well done xx

So bizzare! I had a naughty peak at the scales this morning and I am back down to target! I knew i shouldn't peak but I have never put on 3 pounds in a week in my life! Hmmm...water retention or do I need new scales?

Spanish omlettes. Saturdays brunch

 

[julesm]

Ooh glad you liked the skins recipe! Love those. Your food looks yummy. Just checking... Did you know the new quorn sausies are synned now? I'm gutted to have to syn them, I hardly eat them anymore and they used to be my staple brekkie on the weekend! Xxxx

Oh and as for the 3lb, could be a natural fluctuation? Xxxx

Yeah maybe a natural fluctuation...strange! Is is all of the quorn sausages now? I noticed there seemed to be different types...cumberland, Bbq etc. I think the ones I ate this morning were just normal ones. Gutting! Are they big synage? Xx

Sunday 14th August

Here is a pic of our wee feast last night.

 

[Gem_bear]

Wow fab news congratulations on your engagement. U will shift that pesky 3lbs no problem x

Thanks Laura! How are you getting on?

So after my rant i did let go eventually! It's been about 3 months since I have been on here. I think I needed a time out because it was getting too intense but I eventually found it hard to be good without the support u get on this forum. Was still sticking to SW quite well but just allowing myself to many syns really! Naughty naughty! Bad habits!

It's hard work keeping yourself thin! Xx

Really gutted. I had some of the asda ones today as they're half a syn per sos and they're quite big and juicy. Nowhere near as nice as the quorn though. Boooo! Annoyed with quorn for doing that.

Wow your dinner looks just lovely!!! Really delish, those little pizzas look like they're straight out of a restaurant! And you've laid your wee table so nicely!

Hey Hun

Yes it is very hard work because bad habits start keeping back in. I too stopped coming on for a couple weeks for the same reason getting too intense with it. Have come to the conclusion now to have a happy balance is that I follow sw Sunday through to Friday afternoon and then Friday afternoon to Saturday night I have whatever I want (kinda within reason on a Friday but but if booze is involved on a Saturday night I don't have much hope haha) done it for a couple of weeks now and it's seemed to work have levelled out. So my diary isn't going to really involve a weekend as no point putting it up haha.

So back to it this morning with my heb of porridge and my soya milk (will syn as minimal so I can then have cheese with my omelette at dinnertime) and chopped strawberries but then oh rang me from working begging to have a curry tonight eek so that's put me right out of my flow now

On the plus side though am doing the 30ds every day (haven't done it yet today thou oops) and my aerobics instructor is back from her holidays so back to two days a week doing an hours class. Going on holiday in just over 3 weeks need to get beach body ready...if that's possible haha x
