Mmmm curried egg, I forgot about that, thanks Banjo! I used to make up egg mayo (using extra light mayo) put in some curry powder and have that on some ryvita for lunch

Fed up tonight. Another half pound gain this week. That's now 3 half pound gains in a row. Consultant is not much help and suggests I fill in a food diary sheet but I've done this on previous occasions and she always says they're OK.

She also said I should use all my syns. Thing is the few syns I do use are mainly things like gravy granules, low fat creme fraiche and options drink. I don't eat between my 3 daily meals and I luckily am not one for sweets and crisps etc so I don't always want my syns. I can't see the point in eating stuff like that for the sake of it. Does that make sense?

Anybody got any bright ideas?

I feel your pain. I went to the drs today to get more ideas on why i seem to have stalled and been told the usual do more exercise, cut your calories etc.. Seems we are doing all the right things and not reaping the rewards. I have now been referred to the weightloss clinic through the gp to see if i need counselling because i am obsessing over losing weight. Was told to be pleased with what i had achieved as it proves i can do it :mad:

Great losses fannyanna & travelling light.

Pennylight~I think you need to give your body a wee shoogle(good Scottish word!!).
I know you find it hard to use your syns but could you try to have 10 every day for a week?
This happenned to my friend before Christmas, she was just stuck & it worked for her.

Why not try some extra HEX things but syn them? Like extra bread to make a sandwich or some cheese or use some olive oil rather than fry light? or you could use some cornflour to thicken sauces? Or mayo or ketchup or butter:drool: They wouldn't involve snacking just add a bit extra to your meals.

Well after 2 and a half weeks I fell off the wagon

Couldn't sleep so go up at 1.30 and had a hot drink of milk with some whisky in (always makes me sleep), 2 cadbury brunch bars that I had left over and a bit of chocolate that I have been avoiding.

To be fair, I have been struggling this week. Only lost 2 pounds in my first 2 weeks, I had been trying to save my syns again as I am going away at weekend and I have been hungry all the time.

I planned my meals and made a recipe off the SW site for turkey meatballs - I really dont like them but have to eat them....cant really throw them away !

Still, must keep at it
