Hi guys, well I had a fab weekend!
Although the weather was not quite to my taste... in fact it was so windy Friday night that me and DH were just lying there awake terrified that the tent was going to fly away!!
Foodwise I've been a bad bad girl... I made no attempt to stick to plan over the weekend which included white bread, sausage and mini doughnuts!! :cry:
Don't know what's up with me at the moment, I really want to stick to the plan but seem to have lost my motivation since finding out about our office closing.
It's a bit tricky at the moment as we're completely skint, but I get paid Friday so starting Saturday I'm going back to basics and planning a weeks complete menu using some of the recipes and ideas from the new magazine and adapted from some of my recipe books... I was reading some of the inspirational stories in the mag and they make it seem so easy, and I know it IS easy... I just need that motivation and willpower to kick me up the bum back onto plan :whoopass:
Sorry... rant over!

Suppose I'd better get my diary back on track then...
Tuesday 14th September - EE
Breakfast: WM bread (HEXB) sandwich with ham and a bit of light cheese spread (part HEXA)
Lunch: Away with work so had 2 triangles of WM bread with salmon and cucumber - 4syns for bread, 2 syns for any spread, although didn't seem to be any
Dinner: Making KFC Chicken served with SW chips and beans. 2 syns for breadcrumbs.
Snacks: Was starving when I got home so had a couple of cubes of chocolate (4syns??) and a custard cream (3syns) then a mugshot.
Oh and then another 3 custard creams (9syns)
Drinks: 4 coffees with milk from HEXA, 2x500ml bottles water
Total Syns: 24

Don't worry about the weekend off - as long as you had fun that's the main thing! In fact, a couple of days off might just kick start some fab losses
Here! There's a kick of the bum!...Now you can do the same for me because I'm at the same point. I wake up every morning wanting to be 100% but by 4 o'clock I mess around. I think we both know what to do but it's difficult to get back to that first week motivation. When I first did SW I was amazed by all the free food we could have, now I only seem to focus on what I "can't" have.
Anyway, I guess we just need to keep trying!
At least you've started back pretty well, even with a lunch out with work. Take a day at a time.
Good luck for tomorrow x

Thanks guys.
Been having a long hard think about this today and I've decided that from Saturday I'm starting again from scratch.
New food diary, new weekly progress and back to basics planning ensuring I stick to it to the letter with my third superfree and measured healthy extras and syns. This should hopefully kick me back into action so I start seeing decent weekly losses again.
I've also left a lengthy thread under the TTC forum as me and DH have decided to TTC before I get made redundant next year as it will be the perfect time for me to change jobs and hours. So I'm hoping I'll get a bit of help there in supporting me through that journey.

Is TTC trying to conceive?? if so, that's very exciting news
You don't want to be snacking on monster munch though, pickled onion breath has got be a very effective contraceptive
If TTC means something completely different, ignore me completely....

Thanks girls - I am determined, I want to be 2 stone lighter by the end of the year ideally, so I need to get my bum into gear.
Like I said Saturday I'm starting afresh... I have my meals and snacks planned for the following week, I will be buying loads of fresh fruit, and I'm starting a 30day challenge on the EA Active game I bought a couple of weeks ago.
I'm also going to be giving up wine
As much as possible anyway So won't go without if we go out for dinner or anything like that (but to be fair that won't be anytime soon - we're totally skint!!)
