xGeordieGirlx's Green, Red & EE Food Diary - I'm Back :D

Heyyy you guys :) I decided to come back over to the food diary section as I miss all of the fab support from you all (not saying that the peope in the weight loss part dont support, but there seems to be a lot more people over here :) lol).

I've been rubbish at SW recently, and have decided to document everything in my all new brand spanking food diary! I'm going to try and be 100% in all that I do from now on, cos I feel rubbish that I've been slipping and gaining.

I have 8 weeks until Egypt, and I want to be as close to target as possible by then! I'm half way through my SW week, but have been so bad. So from tomorrow I'm going to be 100%. Hoping for at least a STS at WI on Friday, so fingers crossed!

So, tomorrow is the day where I get myself back on track with food and the gym. I feel a bit more motivated and up for it now. I have to do this!

Hope to hear from you lot who gave me lots of support and motivation when I used to post in my old diary - I need you guys :)

Wish me luck :D will definately update my diary every single day!

I don't have a particular weight target. I want to fit into size 10s if possible, so around 8st 5ish would do. So I'd really love to lose this 13lbs before 9 November so that I'm 9st before I go to Egypt. And obv I'll probably put some of that back on when I'm away. But want to get to full target before Christmas :) I hope I can do it. I've never really lost much on SW, cos I keep going off plan which is bad. I did think about a switch to WW, but I love SW and don't think I'll get my head around WW. Sigh. I'm giving SW the benefit of the doubt til my hols, and if it doesn't work I'm switching to WW when I get back from Egypt x

It's been beautiful hasn't it! The wind was a little chilly though! How was the football match? Hope your team won!

Didn't end up going for a walk (yet anyway)..did my food shopping and had a little wander round tesco and matalan, then washed my car and made my dinner...and it's now almost quarter to 7 so I've not had anytime! Hopefully the weather is nice tomorrow so I can go out (so I don't feel totally lazy!)

Awww, it's been beautiful here!!! Well, by the time I got my butt in gear and got ready, it was lunch time lol. So, I drove to Tesco, washed my car and then went and did my quorn shopping haha. Had a bit wander round the clothes, then went to have a wander around Matalan. Then I came home, pottered around, cleaned up a bit, made my food and by the time I had done all that it was almost 7pm and getting cold, so I didn't really have time to go for a walk!! I feel utterly lazy as I've not been to the gym since Wednesday. But it's been a nice day :)

Isn't it strange that it was so nice here and your only like 3 hours away and it was raining. I'm sick of the English weather, I simply cannot wait for Egypt now!

Hows your night going? Did you get some wine? xx

Ohh get you being all good :) Did you enjoy your quavers and caramel bar?!

I didn't do much last night to be honest, I havent had a night out in AGES, and nobody was out so I stayed in, as you saw on FB, in my PJs with a cuppa tea and watched X Factor and Phil Collins! Then had an early night. I'm getting boring in my old age!! xx

Day 6 of 100%

OMG. I am aching today. After 36 mins on the wii yesterday, and then 30 mins at the gym today, I can hardly walk. My back and legs are KILLING me! But, no pain no gain eh? Hopefully this'll aid me in my loss :)

Gonna aim to go to the gym tomorrow, Wed and Fri this week for around 30-50 mins each time. Can't do Thurs as I'm at a meal for my colleague's leaving. But gonna make good choices - no starter and then a tomato based pasta for main :) sticking to diet coke too - gonna drive so that I have no choice :D woop!

Can't believe it's day 6 of 100% either. I think it's going okay. I feel really bloated. Maybe I'm not having enough liquid? But then again I ALWAYS feel bloated. After everything I eat and drink I feel huge. Lets hope my 100%ness will show at WI on Friday! I really want to lose as much as I can for my hols, so I'm defo sticking to 100%. Only got one night out coming up, and even though we are going to cocktail bars, I'm gonna be super strict with my drinking, but still have a good time and prob just flexi syn it, and be reeally good and hit the gym for the rest of the week :)

Think I have my SW mojo back big style, and am feeling quite motivated :D finally!

Day 7 of 100%

Green Day

I am still aching muchly today. Decided to have a night off from the gym so that my limbs can calm down and I'll go again after work tomorrow.

Feel like I've been a fat pig today, I've eaten loads and used all my syns. Wonder why.

I'm also insanely itchy :( I've been fine all day, then I get home and eat my dinner and I come out in a huge rash over the tops of my arms and my neck, and now it's gone down but I itch everywhere :( must be allergic to something. Dad thinks it's cos I've used different shampoo and I've had a cardi on all day so my hair hasn't touched my skin, til I took my cardi off when I got it. Hope it doesn't itch so much tomorrow. May have to have a shower to see if the water will cool it down.

Breakfast: 42g of Crunchy Bran (HEB) with Milk (Part HEA)

Snack: 1 Banana and 1 Kellogg's Fibre Plus Cereal Bars (HEB)

Lunch: Tesco Sushi (didn't eat it all so 1 syn instead of 1.5), Discos (7 Syns), Quorn Chicken Slices.

Dinner: Quorn Peppered Steak, SW Wedges and Oven Baked Tomatoes, Onion, Peppers, Garlic & Mushrooms

Snack: Two Magical Elves (eek they were in Tesco and it made me feel christmassy lol) - 7 syns

Drinks: 2 Cups of Tea with Milk, 2 Pints of Water, 3 Pints of Water with NAS Squash

Syns: 15
