Starting over

[Ucandoitnay]

Hi all I'm starting again on here and I'm so determined this time to loose the weight as its not just for me but for my son as I want to play with him instead of running out of breath lol.
I'm currently a size 14 and my goal is to be a size 10 - 12.
I want to feel good about myself again as I'm not happy with my body, I was a size 8 five years ago and even tho I think a size 8 was too skinny back then I felt healthier.
I'm doing this weight loss on my own so could really do with some support by someone on here who is struggling also could really do with it xx
Good luck everyone !! X

I'm not sure on the syn values of some of the things you're having but I do know that fruit when blended into a smoothie is not free so youd need to look up the value for the apple and grapes you've been having at breakfast and factor that in along with the values for the fruit youve used in your smoothies throughout the day.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news!

 

[Ucandoitnay]

No that's fine I need to know these things if I want to succeed in my weightloss thank u x

 

[rachaelpie]

Have u tried sweetener instead of sugar? Then its syn free coffee and tea!x

 

[rachaelpie]

And jaq is right, if u blend them they become Syns . Its to do with the sugars in the fruit.
Yogurts if they are less than 1% fat then I think they are free, when ur next in supermarket check the nutritional info against Muller lights x

 

[Ucandoitnay]

Thank u rachael next time I shop ill have a proper look xx

[rachaelpie]

Woohoo sweetener!! See, definately much better than sugar. How u finding it?x

 

[Ucandoitnay]

Hi yeah I'm finding it ok but can be confusing sometimes but I'm sure it will all come to me soon lol. Sweetener is my new best friend lol and to be honest it tastes even sweeter if that makes sense lol. I think I'm going to stick to extra easy now as it is DEFO the things I usually eat so in a way it's tricking my mind to eat better. How are you finding it? Have you lost any weight? I ask this coz I'm going to weigh myself sat and I am really nervous I'm not going loose any. Xx
