Novice with yo-yo motivation!!!

You really want to know??

Last night I had a Chicken Parmesan with Chips & Salad. Parmesan is a Chicken Breast in Breadcrumbs smeared in creamy Bechemel Sauce, topped with lashings & lashings of melted cheese. Then today, I've had a Large Chicken Sandwhich Meal from McDonalds, a cream egg & now a bottle of White wine. I'm starting again tomorrow! So naughty!!!! :-(
 
How are you? You had a nice weekend?
 
How are you? You had a nice weekend?

Honestly that doesn't sound as bad as it could have been. You've had your wee night/ day now. Time to put it behind you and climb back up onto the wagon :)

I think it's really important to tell yourself that you are ALLOWED to eat off plan sometimes. I know I look forward to a big greasy Dominos every now and again. In fact life would be pretty dull without it. BUT I also know that I don't want to look in the mirror anymore and feel bad about myself. Therefore it's SW 90% of the time and only treat night if I lost/ maintained that week.

That's how I've been working it anyway :)

Yes, I've had a good weekend. Few beers but nothing too crazy. Had to eat out this afternoon and was hard to syn. Went for a sandwich with a tuno mayo mix and coleslaw. Ah well. Sometimes you just have to make the best choice out of a lot of bad ones. Y'know.

I've been trying to drink loads of water today and eat my fruit. xx
 
Ah thank you honey! Today has been a better day. Mum made some Ham & Veg soup (all free) so I've filled up on that today!

So annoyed at myself after getting weighed this morning! I knew it was going to happen! A Christening, Mothers Day Choccies & a take away has resulted in a 4lb gain! Grrrr. Flying off to Dublin on Friday with my hubby so I must stick to plan this week. I'll feel really uncomfortable if I don't. I'm suffering with sinusitis at the minute which is causing a horrible migrane. (which resembles a hangover) I knew I was comfort eating far too much!

Lots of water today & superfree I think!

Wish me luck xxxx

Quick update. I haven't been logging my food diary on here as I was filling out a sheet from class. First weigh in was Thursday morning (should have been Wed evening but I couldn't make it) & I've lost 5 1/2 lb. I was over the moon!! Really should go for my 1/2 stone next week but so far I'm struggling. Stuck to plan (ish) Thursday/Friday but then became very weak last night after a few naughty drinks. Two Crisp Sandwiches!!! So delicious though. Having a family day out today so I'm going to stick to it. I'd be gutted if I had a gain next week.

Wish me luck :)
 
Well if that's me sticking to plan.....lol. My boys' Easter eggs have been too much of a temptation :-( Too much wine at a family BBQ resulted in me eating 'pretty much anything I could get my hands on'!! What a shame after such a good start. Easter weekend has defeated me for 4 days!! Not going to dwell on it though, I have 3 days before weigh in to try & lose whatever gain I've had this weekend. I've proved that I can do it in week 1 so need to do more like that first week. Tomorrow is a new day & a step in the right direction!! :)

:wave_cry:
Oh dear. It hasn't been great at my end and tbh I've been avoiding this site as I've been so off plan.
I haven't gained but I haven't lost anything dramatic either. 1 measly pound in the past 5 weeks :(
I know why. I'm stressed, I'm eating comfort food and I've totally forgotten what SW is all about.
A bit dramatic, but honestly I just feel like this last 4.5lbs is a mountain.
So cross and disappointed with myself.
How are you getting on chum?
Gorgeous pic btw xx

Over the moon with 1/2lb loss after my naughty Easter Weekend!! 6lb in two weeks is quite an achievment for me! Out for a meal tomorrow night but apart from that I should be ok for another loss on Wednesday. Fingers crossed! :)
 
Oh dear, naughty weekend again! Sat feeling very guilty again! Love these long weekends but it's throwing my healthy eating plan into quandary :-(

So I'm back on plan tomorrow 100% with a maximum of 5 syns per day & a conserted effort towards drinking plenty of water!!
