Hi Mrs V, am enjoying reading your food diary, as well as writing mine! I am feeling guilty for the amount of syns I am having now....are you planning on not have loads all the time, or just to kick start?
 
Hi Lizzie,
Thanks for the feedback!
I read your diary with interest too, it helps me think about what I can have!!! Lol!
The only time I have a lot of syns, is if I have a green day for an ounce of cheese (6). I don't tend to eat crisps or chocolate when I am on SW, not to avoid temptation, but because I am so full on fruit!!!
I wouldn't feel guilty about the syns you have, that is why you are allowed between 10-15 a day, so that you aren't deprived of anything...just enjoy what you're having, but without the guilt!!!!

Thanks. I try and vary what I am eating, otherwise I will get really bored!

Weigh day is Monday, so will definitely let you know how I get on!
 
Well, I made it through the weekend. I only get to have internet access really through the day when at work :giggle:, so I won't post the weekend diet sheets, as it will take me ages!
However, I stuck to the plan religously and even went round to a friend's house for a meal. As she is on the SW plan too, we decided upon curry!
Between us, we made 5 curries and I made syn free lamb kebabs, which even my 21 month Daughter tucked into!
To my dismay when I got on the scales this morning, I found that I have only lost 2lb - in my first week!!!! Ok, it is the TOTM and I usually gain 7lb, I have got off lightly. I am feeling rather sorry for myself though :cry:.
Anyway, I know that the loss next week will be greater, so.....to infinity and beyond!!! (it will probably take me that long to loose it all anyway!!! :D:rotflmao:)

Are you actually going to classes or doing this from home? Sounds like you're having a really varied and interesting diet ... looking forward to seeing how things go for you.
 
Hi Russiandoll,

I am actually trying to do this on my own from home. I have friends and relatives that go to class, so if I fancy a hifi bar or scranbran, they can get it for me.
I also have access to the SW website and use that as a guide and not forgetting everyone on here!

I have done the diet for so long, that I could recite it in my sleep! It is definitely harder trying to do it alone though, as there isnt the dread of facing the scales at a class!!
 
i agree with you on that one mrs v, its deffinatly harder doing it from home hence me rejoing class last thursday, just couldnt do it on my own :cry:
