Hi everyone 
. I've been off track with the diet now for a good couple of months and as a result I've lost and put on the same three pounds virtually every three weeks. I am a classic binge eater - will be good all week and then bake cupcakes (hummingbird bakery) and eat four of them in one go - I actually felt sick!!
Anyway, I decided it was time to get back on track and start (another) food diary. I have three weeks until I go to New York with work and I want to be able to go shopping and feel good about myself again. I want to set myself a mini target of losing 7lbs in that time. When I set myself bigger/longer term targets I seem to fall off the wagon and keep putting it off so I am going to have lots of mini targets until Christmas.
A bit about me - my name is Emma and I'm an accountant (don't judge me). I don't have lots to lose - probably about a stone. I find the stories on here really inspirational where people have lots more to lose but then I get frustrated with myself seeing that everyone else seems to progress and lose a couple of pounds a week whereas I just go round in circles....
One more thing to add, I usually work quite long hours so don't manage to go to class although am going to try and start going to walk in classes at lunch time (not sure what that will entail?!?!?!) so I have enlisted my boyf to weigh me in each week biggest loser style!!
Right, enough of the rambling.... now for food for today......
Monday 19 Sept (red day)
B - lots of different berries, 5 scan bran (heb) and FF yoghurt
Snacks - two alpen light bars (HEB), two satsumas
Lunch - chicken, parma ham (I think 2 syns), tomato, peppers and mushroom salad with balsamic vinegar (need to check syns). More fruit and ff yoguht
Dinner - Tuna steak, broccoli with tomato ketchup (3 syns - I love the stuff) and MOOORREE fruit and FF yohurt.
So that's 5 syns in total..... day one down
