Spring into Summer 2012 with Slimming World

SwipernoSwiping

Ah.. I am not going to florida, but I will be going on a 'beach' in the states, and I will be strutting my oh so confident self along many a high street this summer. I feel fab and I am only 10 weeks in.
I won't be wearing a bikini... hate the things, but I will be coming back with a new wardrobe full of clothes
I don't want to loose weight to look good for the holiday (but the extra bottom space in those pokey plane seats will be grand. ;P ) but because all that extra lard was down right depressing - proof being -- how much happier I am now!

Why-oh-why have I just eaten 2 custard cream biscuits:mad::mad: I didn't want them, and I am stuffed from dinner still:cool: I was just dishing some out to the kids and 2 fell in my mouth:(.

So I need some help working out my syns and checking if today was still an EE day...

B - Mushrooms (loads) beans, toast, apple.
L - spicy noodle mugshot, banana, loads of strawberries.
D - Spaghetti bolognese, this sauce had loads of SF (i think) tinned toms, tomato puree, garlic, onions, mushrooms, peppers, sweetcorn. 250g extra lean mince. It was mainly veg:)

2 asda custard creams (syns)

2 syns each for the custard creams if my memory serves right. Everything else is syn free. - Toast is that your HEB? - did you use frylight to brown your mince off?

Glad to see everything else is ok and I can still ahve a little treat later:j I have bought some options mint drink, so will have that later along with an alpen bar:D... I think I will still be within 15 syns won't I?

Helllppp!

Sorry I haven't been posting in there much. I have kept loosing, 2 stone3 pound for me now.

I'm hoping someone can help me with a question.

Is there an upper limit to the target you can set based on BMI?
I thought that with SW you could set your own target, but something that was said at our group today made me think that isn't the case, and they will not accept a target which they consider too high.... anyone know the details? thanks

Lost 2lb bit dissapointed tried really hard

7lb is very ambitious for a weeks loss - better to loose 2lb a week steadily than 7lb and yoyo about - sw isn't about quick weight loss its about changing your mindset and your eating habits for the long term.

2lb is average, it's off and not on, so congratulate yourself :j and don't push yourself too hard.
If you lost 2lb per week for a whole year you would actually have lost 7 STONE!
Now that's nothing to get disappointed about is it?
Carry on regardless, some weeks are better than others, your body will tell you that
Good luck for another fab week xx
