Feeling very pleased with myself - another 100% day yesterday and having felt totally c**p for the last few weeks I actually felt a lot better last night. Still falling asleep a lot during the day but the heat and the humidity I think have a lot to answer for that but hoping that I'll see a difference in that too if I can carry on like this.

B - 2 fried (Frylight) eggs, small WM roll (HEB), salad with dressing made from 1T light mayo (2), balsamic vinegar, S&P, a little sweetner
L - tuna pasta salad (leaves, tuna, grated carrrot, sweetcorn, tomato, cucumber, red onion, beetroot, dressing - mustard, 1T light mayo (2), sweetner, S&P, rice vinegar
D - pan-fried (Frylight) halibut, 4-grain pilaf (http://www.slimmingeats.com/blog/4-grain-pilaf)(2.5), coleslaw with mustard and light mayo (2) dressing

snacks - cherry tomatoes, watermelon, FF vanilla yoghurt

Almost as planned and didn't fall asleep once today :T so obviously the better eating this week is doing me good. As I've said so many times I just wish I could bottle the awful ill feelings I've had for the last few weeks. I do feel that I still want to eat something this evening though so going to bed and hopefully I can forget about it.

Dinner changed to LO cottage pie instead of the 4-grain pilaf which I had with the halibut and coleslaw. I then had a Cadbury's Options which I believe is 2 syns so total syns is 8.

Tomorrow is day 4 and looks like this -

B - FF vanilla yoghurt with frozen strawberries
L - lentil & vegetable soup; vegetable frittata
D - lentil & vegetable soup; chicken strips; 4-grain pilaf

snacks - cherry tomatoes

Sorry to bore everyone with this but feel I have to blog it to help me stay on track.

Disappointed with my WI tonight. Stayed the same - that's the first time in 6 weeks I haven't lost at all. Not sure why really because I always stick to plan. Consultant recommended drinking more fluids so I will do that and see what happens next week.

K&F - same here and that's exactly why I've been around constantly for the last couple of days - reporting in that I'm still being good. So stupid and so childish I know but hey whatever helps I'll go for it. So continue counting the hours and before you know it the day will be gone.

Halfway through 3rd 100% day here (so far so good)!

I don't think it's stupid or childish.. This is your class and this is your support network, if it helps you achieve your goal then it's wonderful to hear.. Without being too gushy, i think it's great that you've got back on track, it gives inspiration to people who are/were also struggling, now if only i could follow suit!

PMT and hormones means i've struggled all week, weigh in is tomorrow and i'm hoping for at least half a pound.. i feel really bloated at the moment..

My plan for tomorrow - green day

B - apple, yogurt, choc weetabix (2)
L - jacket and philly light (Hea)
T - spaghetti carbonara (Hea) with bacon (heb)
S - french fries (4) satsumas, strawberries

I stayed the same last week and that was my 6th week too, I completely stuck to plan for the whole week but I lost 4lbs this week so perhaps it was just water retention or something?

OMG:eek: I have been counting these as free, I have one every afternoon in work with a chopped banana in it; I am gutted as I checked these against muller (well only the saturated fat) any idea on any the rest of them as I get them sometimes as well, I should have been adding 24.5 calories a week to my total when I was counting them for free :(:(:(.

I thought it was fab as they were only 31p compared to muller I got some rowan Glen toffee yogurts for 3p at Mr A tonight, better get on & check them as well.

Made up my syn box for the week, have told kids not too touch as its mine

Going to try upload a pic, been good tonight, had chilli & rice to drink I had diet irn bru, not a glass of wine.

Used my HEA for 45g low low cheese with some pickles. :A

Med mum whatever keeps you on track.....do it. As I have said my downfall is wine, just a habit having a wee glass or two at night but a habit that has to be broken so wine is in said syn box and will stay there until the weekend.

Disappointing WI here too; gained .5 pound. No idea how as I have stuck to plan. Consultant thinks it could be because I've upped my body magic, don't take in enough fluids or don't have many syns. I will not be deterred though and will strive for my next mini goal. I have to do this - I want to be healthier and enjoy life and be around for my DS, DD and OH.

Vicki - glad to hear that you have different meds now. And good for your Dad for sticking up for you.

RFD - take care of yourself.
