Not too happy tonight ladies:
I GAINED :mad: 1 pound!
Don't know what happened, but I have struggled with the concept of adding an extra B choice daily. Don't get me wrong I could eat that and a loaf of bread besides but I was thinking if I ate it then I would put weight on.
If anything I have not eaten enough on any day, and I know that you must eat to lose so I must live with the consequences and up my food this week.

That's what target is though! I sit next to a great bloke who has been at target for coming up to 2 years. Each week he puts on or loses the odd pound, depending on what he's been doing. Over the 2 years he has been in danger of going out of target at both ends, but has actually only been out of range for 1 week - and that was enough to get him rethinking......

Learning how to stay at target is hard, but you've done so well - don't get disheartened now!

I've just gone back to class after having a break for surgery on my foot (I couldn't walk so couldn't get to group) and it's brilliant to be back there. I intend to keep looking at this thread as well as getting to class every week. I need to lose 3 stones (ouch! I've never said that before)

I'm doing extra easy and really try to have fresh fruit and veggies with every meal.

Hello again Lil Me, and thanks for updating the recipe thread, I was worrying about that! Did you know "your" recipe thread had a mention in Martin's email last week!?!?!

Ooooh no I didn't! Shows how closely I read the email lol feel free to poke me if you notice I'm falling behind on keeping it updated, I won't mind!!

Thanks for the welcome back.

This weekend I am planning on clearing the rest of the easter chocolate, and as long as the post man arrives with the post I've asked to be redelivered today then I shall be walking to town and back which is 4 miles total (up hill on the way home). I'll chuck the pedometer on today.

-2.5lbs off

a little disappointed as my scales told me something a little different but I'm glad it's a loss and almost undone last week's blip

SO I think I must divorce my scales too! :P (the chocolate ex keeps coming back and begging for reunion tho!!! :P )

more or less EE for me today, we are celebrating bf's birthday tonight so there will be some drinks and I'm having a nice leg of lamb roasting in the oven which I'll serve with sweet potato wedges and salad will also make tomatoes stuffed with egg, salmon and xl philly pate and some olives for nibbles more or less SW and I'm lucky our guests love healthy food will cook a soup for tomorrow's hangover too

have a lovely weekend everyone

I must admit I'm struggling a bit with SW.

I was so happy on week 1 with a 4lb loss but since then it has been 0, 0, .5, 1, .5, .5 so a total loss of 6.5 lbs in 7 weeks which is painfully slow. I have about 2 stone to lose - well, one and a half now.

My group leader is trying so hard and assures me that everyone loses with SW - it's just a case of finding out which version of it works best for me.

We have tried reducing my syns from 15 to 10 to 5 to 5 but not wine which I must admit made me feel a bit depressed and deprived and still resulted in a .5 loss.

This week's suggestion is to try Original instead of EE so that is what I'm doing - with my fingers firmly crossed of course.

I don't do much in the way of exercise so think I may need to do something there to give me a boost.

I don't want to give up on this because I need to lose the weight and I also enjoy the healthier way I am now eating but it is getting harder and harder to believe that this is the answer for me.
