:xmassign:
Christmas Eve!! - Wednesday 24th December - Green Day - to be honest when I finish work at 2 today, this is it for me until after Christmas now . If I start to feel rubbish I might get back on it earlier but I'm aiming to get back on SW on Monday 5th Jan - I may post my diary so I don't completely lose track but I'll see how busy I am while I'm off work!! So MERRY CHRISTMAS to everyone and here's to a Happy 2009 - I'm getting married!!!:character00250:
Today's diary (ish!):

B: 2 x weetabix (HEB) with milk (HEA)

Snk: 1 x Celebration (2 syns), 1 x choc biscuit (4.5 syns), Clementines

L: Mugshot, Shape LS yoghurt, Banana

D: 'Buffet tea' at bf's sister's so that's where the naughtiness will probably start...then out for a few drinks later although I don't drink much and I don't want to be hung over tomorrow!

HAVE A GREAT ONE EVERYONE!!!! :109:

 

[tinyshoes]

Right then back to it - I hope everyone has had a great Christmas and is looking forward to the new year. I've had a week and a half off and have eaten so much naughty but nice food it's unreal, and to be honest although it tastes nice at the time I have spent alot of evenings feeling sick! And I feel so tired and sluggish I am sort of looking forward to getting back on plan! So starting tomorrow I am back at work (boo hoo - although in the current climate I know I should be grateful I have a job to go back to!). I won't stick to plan 100% for the first couple of weeks as I have got things to eat up (chocolates/wine etc) but I will do my best and try and stick to 15-20 syns a day which I know is a little excessive but I'm hoping it will slowly reverse the damage I have done over Christmas. I think I have put on 4 or 5lbs which is around what i was expecting so I'm hoping to at least lose this in January. I am going to try the new Extra Easy plan although I don't go to class so may get it slightly wrong so don't anyone copy me haha!! If anyone sees anything I am doing wrong (apart from the obvious 'slip-ups' at weekends please let me know. I am getting married in October this year so really want to try and lose 14-21lbs by around June time (my 31st bday) then maintain til wedding. Thanks everyone and good luck for 2009!!

Syns: 14.5 plus white choc buttons, and some cough medicine which I am not counting! Failed a bit today but at least I'm back to keeping a diary I guess it's a step in the right direction. All this coughing is making me feel so tired and achy and just FED UP!! Excuses excuses.....

 

[tinyshoes]

Wednesday 7th January - Extra Easy again (ish!) - this may change to a Green Day later on! I feel so poorly today - think the nearly sleepless nights have caught up with me, my cough seems to be a little better but when I do cough it feels like I have done 1000 sit-ups and been hit on the head with a hammer, everywhere aches! :wave_cry:Sat at work now wondering why on earth do I drag myself in when I feel so bad - no-one else seems to! I just feel so bad calling in sick especially seeing as it's the first week of the year! So I'm not exactly optimistic about sticking to plan today either - especially as I am taking cough medicine and have some throat lozenge things too! Anyway here goes.....

Snk: Grapes

L: (If I'm still at work and awake by then!) Chicken mugshot, WW cheese puffs (3.5 syns), Shape LS yoghurt

D: Maybe a chicken curry or maybe just egg on toast which will break the diet completely depends what I can be bothered to cook when I get in unless by some miracle oh will cook tonight - VERY doubtful, even when I'm ill he won't help me out :cryops guess who's feeling sorry for herself today?!

Drink: 2 x coffee (1 decaf), NAS squash x 1, diet pop x 1

Tuesday 13th January - Extra Easy - messed up yesterday big style but I'm just going to have to take each day as it comes at the mo as I'm still not feeling great!

Snk: Grapes

L: Tuna, pasta, 2 tbsp x light mayo (1 syn), Shape LS yoghurt

Snk: Satsumas, 2 x Quorn eggs (2 syns)

D: Salmon, rice and veg pouch (3 syns)

OK there is a trend going on here - I'm reasonably good all day then when I get sat down at night I just want to eat all the chocs I got for xmas! I'm torn between eating the lot 'when they're gone they're gone' kind of attitude and trying to limit to a few a day which isn't working at the mo!! Think it's because I'm a bit under the weather still.....excuses excuses....all I can do is take it a day at a time. It's also worse this week coz h2b has been out at night so I'm so bored in the house on my own....need a distraction of some kind....

Snk: 5 x Guylian chocs (15 syns), Galaxy Caramel (11 syns)

Drink: 2 x decaf coffee, NAS squash x 3, diet pop x 1

Syns: 32!! Another terrible day....although more chocs have gone so there are fewer left to eat....guess I will have a gain this week though...

 

[tinyshoes]

Drink: 1 x decaf coffee, 2 x NAS squash, 1 x herbal tea, 1 x diet pop

 

[mummy2beslim]

[tinyshoes]

Yeah thanks, I'm sure I will get back on it once the chocs are all gone which will be soon the rate I've been eating them! And also once I feel better, still not feeling great. Have sort of given up a bit this week so hopefully next week will be a clean slate....watch this space haha!

Friday 16th January - off plan but thought I would write down what I would normally eat in a day when I'm not even really thinking about HE's/syns etc and then it will show me why I am overweight and why I need to follow the plan starting next week!! I will work out HE's and syns just to see how bad it could be.....or how bad it used to be! Just thought it might make me realise how much my eating has improved since I started following SW and whether I lose alot of weight or not I must be healthier inside anyway...so here goes a 'normal' eating day from the past......
