Well well well

Last year I wrote a diary while starving to death doing the Cambridge diet ! I lost 6 stone but ended my diet last July due to ill health and after the op piled it all back on ! Now I have tried to redo the diet but I can't get into just 3 shakes a day so on Wednesday I joined slimming world !!!
I didn't really think about it too much so it's a little bit of a jump in at the deep end

I'm fat frumpy unfit and ready to do battle ! I hate being fat and man I'm fat size 20 to be precise I was so much better at a 14 so here goes

So far I'm working lots I do nights so haven't had time to shop and stock the house so I'm making do on salad veg etc that's always in

I'm 29 a mum of 2 I work nights and I study part time as a hairdresser xxxxxxx

Today I have had pasta with tomato and veg free free free
Jacket spud beans and salad free free free
Fruits salad with low fat yogurt 1 syn
And balsamic vinegar 1 syn

And I'm full up to the top but a night shift ahead !
I just don't feel like I will lose on this diet !

It's my last night shift tonight so I thought I would make a shopping list tonight using all my mags and books and stock up tomorrow on free food and low syn essentials !! I have also chosen a few foods to make out of the book I have so can't wait to try it !!!

Im doing fine thanks hun - a few blips along the way so trying to get my head back in the game, ive got 12lbs to target so really want that gone by xmas if poss.

I couldnt do without my meats im afraid so most of my meals are based on meat dishes. I think I have every book going lol OH keeps saying oh not another one ( ive had to tell him I won a couple lol ) he goes mad at me buying them all.

Ive done my shopping today, bought a butternut squash so that I can make a butternut squash and red pepper soup yum yum. Im going to look through my books and plan a few days meals so that I know what were having when in from work.

One night this week im using the warburtons squareish wraps and making them into pizzas theyre lush. You could do those as you can use any topping you like?
Smother with tomato puree and then slice mushrooms, peppers, onions, herbs etc on top and oven bake easy peasy x

Well it's Monday morning again and yet again week on week I just don't feel like I have lost a tiny bit of weight this week !!!! It's odd because I'm doing what sw says to do but because I'm eating loads it doesn't feel like I'm any smaller ! Which then makes me want to munch on the goodies I have cut out !!!
I miss bread as well lovely bread ! Sod the alcohol it's bread and chocolate anyday over alcohol !!!!!! But then I will defo not lose anything so I'm staying strong
I'm shattered after my night shift so I'm off to bed bf just gave me a right gob full because he's tired and I was about a second away from knocking his big mouth right off his face but it appears I do have self control and will power so in turn it has made me realise if I can exert that amount of self control I sure as hell can do the same when it comes to bread and chocolate ! Wow now I sound like a real nutter !!!! Diets must bring it out of me !
Anyways off to sleep x night all enjoy yr wet Monday lol
