    defo not going tonight, having the worst week at work ever and really am not in the mood for it all tonight, just wanna hide somewhere dark and sleep for a few days!!
  • Lost half a pound - which is a miracle!

    Deano I would go, I know it seems bad but if you go you will be more motivated to write this week off as bad and start afresh. I had a really bad week once and wasnt gonna go and did in the end - best thing I did, otherwise I know the bad feeling will creep into the following week.

    Just what I was gonna say. At least go get weighed if nothing else :) Then write a line under it and start fresh tomorrow :)

    Weigh in tonight for me. Really hoping for a reasonable loss. 2Ib would be nice but I just don't feel that much lighter despite having less then 35 syns all week, and doing some exercise!! Fingers crossed :o

    by the way for anyone who shops in the co-op their bbq chicken and pork kebabs are only half a syn per kebab and are yummy in wraps, as dinners with rice and salad or as a snack x

    might give these a go for a BBQ at the weekend :)

    Oh and well done with your losses. Small steps forwards is better than steps backwards :) (this was also my mantra for debt busting but that has completely stalled at the moment! :o )

    I lost 1Ib. Not terribly impressed seeing as I had so few syns and exercised. Still, at least it was a loss. Consultant advised try a few more syns (only had 5 per day) so will aim for 10 a day. I have chocolate on stand-by to add more syns if needed :)

    Forgive me fellow SW members, for I have syn-ed.
    I wanted some chocolate this morning so I bought the smallest bar of galaxy choc, scoffed it then realised it was 12.5 syns. I also had a cup of tea (terrible, I know) with milk not in my allowance (having cheese as HEA) so that another 0.5 syns. 13 syns and it's not even mid-day. AND I'm going out tonight and KNOW I have no intention of being good tonight. What's wrong with me?! :p

    ps- is anybody else there? I'm starting to feel like I'm talking to myself... which isn't unusual :rotfl: :p

    I might pop over there to chat when this thread is quiet... like the last couple of days. I'm starting to look like a bi of a nutter. Well.. I am a bit of a nutter but it doesn't do to show it :rotfl:
