Thanks for that - it might help me calculate how I did yesterday as I'm following the SW diet but had a bizarre day where my eating and drinking didn't fit well into their 'categories' (free food, healthy extra's). Most of what I ate/drank classed as syns although over the day I ate much less than usual and also did 4 hours solid gardening (the heavy digging, lifting type).

I will try to get back on track today!

Happy hols everyone :j

Hi everyone

Just to let you know that the name of the recipe collection thread held on Old Style is now called:-

Losing Weight Recipes Collection


and the link to it is:-

It would probably be a good idea if this was added into the first post in this thread to make it easier for people to find when they need it

Thanks very much Squeaky. I've added a link in the first post of this thread so it will be easy for us all to find.

had a bad day yesterday took the kids to a birthday party and had 5 tiny sausage rolls (17.5 syns!!) 1/2 white bread ham sandwhich and a choc mini roll then thought i've blown it now and had 2 dairy milks and 1/2 a cadbuyrs easter egg later in the evening!!! oh well at least the temptations gone now

It's so hard with all the chocolate temptation all around. Next year I'm going to ban Easter eggs :rotfl: :rotfl:

Put it down to a bad day Lyndsay and start afresh today

2nd Weigh in today and I've lost 1lb. I'm a bit disappointed but that is 7lb in a fortnight, so I know I shouldn't be unhappy.

Any advice on having a really good week next week appreciated.

I think I was snacking a little bit so I've got to get over that.

Has anyone else on SW had a similar thing where they have a really good first week and then second week a bit rubbish?

Half a stone is an amazing loss in just two weeks, after such a loss in the first week, Im amazed that you managed to lose even a pound this week, a pound a week is a good loss, after the first week aiming for a pound is a healthy way to do it, if you set your expectations too high you are aiming for failure and dissapointment. My first week I only lost 1.5lbs and the second week I lost the same, but its sticking with it that counts and I am now three and a half stone lighter.
The first week will have been mostly water weight, rather than fat.
Keep it up, if I can do it anyone can.
Well done on your losses so far :T

:wave: Bobsa -7lb in a fortnight is fab, well done. Don't be too down about this weeks loss, 1lb is still good and I expect its because you lost so much the week before. If you continue to have a steady loss of 1-2lb a week it will be off in no time, and it's more likely to stay off this way - Well done!

Bettyboobs - Hello and Welcome to MSE and the Lose weight thread :wave: Are you trying to lose weight yourself, are you following any plans? - we'd love to hear how you are doing. Any tips will be greatly appreciated. We also have a recipe thread, its over on the Old Style Board - there is a link to it in my first post on this thread. Looking forward to hearing more from you

I wonder how Cheekymole is getting on in Sunny Tenerife Maybe she'll pop on in a day or 2 for her "fix". Hi CM if you do !

Have a good week everyone - stay good!
