I've given in to the Easter chocolate in the shops. I bought a packet of Crème Eggs (9 syns each) and 3 bags of the mini chocolate eggs (Daim, solid chocolate and crème egg) which are between 2.5 and 3 syns each. Added them all to my treat stash

I tried one of the SW Iceland frozen meals today. It was the Chicken Tikka Masala one and OMGGGGG it was amazing! It felt like I'd just eaten a really naughty takeaway. Def worth £3!

I tend to hop on the scales at least once during the week when it's not my official weigh in day. I jumped on this morning and they're showing a 3lb gain... WTF? I've been within my syns every day apart from once going over by 3 syns but I can't see why that would add 3lbs. The only thing I can think of is that because I have very irregular star weeks and I'm currently on week 8 without a star week.

I've left out a lot of carbs today to see if that helps as well as keeping my syns as low as I can. I can't really call it an SP day because I've had corn and yogurts. I've done some body magic in the form of 2 hours housework so lets hope I've sweated out some lbs!

I'm not working tomorrow so I'm going to try and drink a load of water. I can only do it when I'm not working as I literally have to pee every 10 minutes!

That sounds amazing. I will defo try your garlic trick. Do you have to add cheese to them or can you make them without?

You can make them without, I've done it before but I just prefer mine with cheese

I thought I'd add a few photos of this week's food. I post most of my food pics on Instagram every day too

WHHHYYY am I feeling soooo hungry today? I bought Wensleydale assuming it was a healthy extra but found out that it's not and every time I open the fridge it's sitting there whispering my name. I'm gonna leave it until Wednesday after I've weighed and just have it as a treat on some crackers... we're all allowed to be naughty every now and then aren't we?

Looking forward to Hairy Dieters Chicken Cordon Bleu tonight for my dinner *belly rumbles*

 

[Sophie Sweetcheeks]

I don't know what's going on today but I've eaten quite a lot and haven't been able to control my cravings I really wanted a Crème Egg, tried to take my mind off it by drinking lots and trying to focus on TV but in the end I gave in to it. Maybe my star week is on the way after 8 weeks absence?

My new recipe for the week, Hairy Dieters Chicken Cordon Bleu, was really nice. I served it with new potatoes and salad and was still hungry after a plate full that I ate the other chicken breast I'd cooked too!

I've done an SP day today seeing as it's weigh day tomorrow. I'm still really bloated and the scales this morning showed a 2lb gain so I'm pretty worried about tomorrow. I know there's nothing I can do about star week and how it affects my body but I've been on plan all week so it'll be disappointing to not lose anything, if that's the case, in the morning. Even if I have gained I'm not going to let it affect next week and I'm going to keep my positive attitude!

Thanks Mary, I completely forgot about that.

 

[Sophie Sweetcheeks]

So... weigh day... I'm disappointed.

It could've been worse but I've stayed the same

A maintain is better than a gain, try not to worry too much, I know how upsetting it can be x
