Hi hun, don't panic about the weekend you've got plenty of time to pull it back. Try and drink plenty.

Slim people have splurges & don't gain weight, because they move on and don't panic or dwell about overeating xx

Tuesday 24th Sep, Week 7, Day 2

8st10.8lb

Boo!! :cry: No way I'll get a loss or even sts tomorrow. Gutted, knowing its totally my fault makes it worse, even though that prob sounds stupid. But I know it's a 'real' gain (rather than weeks when I've been good & gained/sts & it could be water retention etc), plus am pissed off with myself! Grrr.

However, on the positive I'm determined NOT to let this be the start of a downward spiral. Although yest was also sh*t, today my food has been:

B: / L: Black coffee, lots of water
D: Creamy leek & green bean slim rice 'risotto' (1 onion, 2 leeks, 140g green beans, 1 stock cube, soy sauce, 100g mushrooms, 2 eggs, 100g ff fromage frais, slim rice)

Syns for week so far: 35/105

Thursday 26yh Sep, Week 7 Day 4

Weight: 8st 9.6lb

Woke up starin marvin today. Unfortunately failed to forsee this might happen after a double DD & so no superfree in the house, doh! Which means today will be a rare RED day :)

B: Cheesy scrambled eggs (HexA), followed by 2 microwaved alpen lights (HexB) & ff greek yog

L: Salad made with roasted red onion, butternut squash & courgette, fresh cherry toms, & tuna

Snacks: Fridge raiders roast chicken, 2 sliced toms topped with a slice of reduced fat cheese (found out I get 2 slices for my HexA :) ), 6 celebration chocs

D: Homemade lentil dahl, okra, courgette

So.... not really sure what day it should be? Think I'll call it green, lol. No working scales so couldn't weigh them out & also not sure if they count as HexB on red as could only see brown & green listed, but I used red split lentils?

So in light of this decision, I'm going to say:

HexA = 2 x 20g slices reduced fat cheese
whole milk in 1 large cup of tea (I can have 2 HexA on green can't I?)
HexB = 2 x alpen light
tuna
Syns = 20 [B/][U/](fridge raider 5 & chocolate 15)

Tuna also not weighed but defo not over as the entire salad used 1 small tin & that included Mondays lunch.

Syns for week so far: 55/105

Ooooh are they free? I like yoghurts that are thick and aren't too sweet though - I really don't like muller lights as they are way too thin and taste so artificially sweet!

I love the WW ones and the muller greeks but they don't have rhubarb flavours :( x

Yep, or at least I thought they were free when I checked yest.... lol. It was the 0% fat ones. I also don't hugely like muller lights, much preferred the danone one tho! Ooo, haven't tried the WW or greek style mullers - are they both free?

Sunday 6th October, Week 8, Day 7

Decided to make yest & today DDs to partly compensate for the train wreck that Thurs / Fri turned into. Gone over my 500 kcal but have been pretty restrained so OK with that.

Food for Sat

Snack: Ham (150 kcal)
D: Tuna steak with fennel, red pepper, spring onion, garlic, & ginger (guess 450 kcal??)
2 glasses processco.

Food for Sun

Snack: very very thin slice of bagutte, cherry toms
D: Chicken & veg stew
 
Monday 7th Oct 2013, Week 9, Day 1

Weight 8st 5.8lb[/B]

L: Chicken stew
D: Veggie soup, followed by quorn fajita strips with onion & red pepper. 4 figs & 2 alpen lights (HexB) warmed in microwave

Several cups tea with skimmed milk (HexA)

HiFi light bar (2nd HexB)
 
Aw sorry you're feeling down :( you know that you can do it and you're doing so well, we all have our little blips now and then but having the ability to get back on the wagon is what matters and you know you have that ability :) x
 
Reporting in with a gain of 3lb :cry: - weight now 8st9.4lb. Guess I was hoping for better as did manage a fast yest & Sun tried (& failed, lol) a DD, was still within 800kcal tho. Given that from now until Sun I'll be eating out & drinking every day, I was hoping for less of a gain, looks like I'll be at least 5-6 lb up by next Wed. Hopefully that'll give me the kick up the bum I need to have a good few 100% weeks.....
