Hmm well what can I say as usual had a fairly bad weekend diet-wise! Saturday I stuck to it til dinner then had 3 slices of pizza and fries, and a HUUUUUUGE bar of Dairy Milk! Then yesterday wasn't too bad but just had a mixed up day wasn't sure what day to count it as in the end, started as EE but had 2 HEBs! And a McFlurry! I'm feeling so despondant about this diet at the mo, wondering whether I keep cheating coz I'm bored of it now....all I seem to do is think about food and how many HE's have I had and how many syns have I had what can I have for my next meal etc......seriously thinking about going onto WW as I lost 3 stone on that 5 years ago fairly easily really (2 have stayed off). Maybe on SW I just eat too many calories for the amount of activity I do (none - so lazy!). Anyway I'm gonna give it this week and see how I go, maybe it's just phase I'm going through.....
