Why not today, get a length of string then, and mark it for your waist. Then not using numbers, you can still "measure" your success!

You could even have lots of strings, and label them for different parts of your body to "measure"
 
good idea Divvy - liking the strings idea!! My problem seems that I never seem to measure at same place each time and the numbers vary greatly week to week - sometimes up sometimes down..... how do you always ensure you measure EXACTLY the same spot?

You do like your savory crisps! I LOVE reading diaries, for me it's chocolate definately but keep up the great work...!
 
Well done on your losses, I can't believe anyone can eat Ryvita every day!
Aaand HOW do you eat 4 tbsp of Picalilli? My face screws to a prune after a tsp! LoL

Keep losing!
 
I don't eat Ryvita EVERY day Shirleen - just every other and on weekends - LOL - on Mon, Wed & Fri I have Tuna Pasta Sweetcorn instead. oooohhh you've just reminded me about the Piccalilli - Mmmm - at the moment I can't spare the syns as addicted to Scampi Fries and Cheese Moments which take up 14 daily - LOL......If you put the Ham thick enough on the Ryvita you don't taste the 'cardboard' itself especially with something on top of the ham, Piccalilli is great for masking cardboard tastes...

SuperBarney - Guilty as charged - I LURVE crisps - the stronger flavour the better hence my scampi fries!!! IF I couldn't have my crisps daily then it'd feel more of a diet than an 'eating plan' which is how I try to sell it to myself - LOL

VERY PROUD OF MYSELF TODAY - went to cinema (prize off local radio) - they gave us pair tickets, REALLY HUGE soft drink (I chose Diet Coke), Dean got a MASSIVE bag of popcorn (really intended for sharing) and also a 31g bar of Galaxy Bubbles Choc.....was sat there in cinema with my calculator working out the cals then estimating the syns..... 8.5 syns I am calling it as 169 cals. I am SOOOOO proud of myself - I resisted temptation at the cinema, added the syns before indulging on unexpected choccy AND earlier in day when Mum had bought in load of reduced price pastries ( inc. my old faves!!!) - I declined her offer of sharing.

THE SCALES HAD BETTER BE BLOODY KIND TO ME TOMORROW!!! ;)
