My appetite seems to have diminished - is anyone else finding this to be the case?

I haven't noticed a decline in my appetite but I have rediscovered feeling full when I've eaten enough. My tastes have changed a lot over the year and a bit I've been following SW - fatty things in particular can taste unpleasant now.

Another 1lb off so provided I don't put anything on between now and the end of the challenge I've met my target for this period

Still another 2 stone left to come off however. It feels daunting when I look back to see how long it's taken to lose the first 1.5 stone. I'm glad things are going in the right direction but I've been doing this for 4 months now and I'm not even half way there

Nikki, it has taken me over a year to lose 3st. I think the most I've ever lost in a week is 2.5lbs, early on, more usually between 1.5 and half a pound. This was never going to work for me as a quick fix, but my diet and health has really changed for the better. 1.5 stone in 4 months is great!

Todays menu
B Bran flakes berries 0% fat yoghurt and honey
L Mushroom omlette and baked beans, apple
D Speedy spag bol, orange
Snack - Nakd bar (5 syns - love these!)

Tomorrows plan:
B As today
L Making some veg soup from bits of veg that are hanging around, and possibly a JP with something
D Braising steak with mash and veg

Have a good weekend.

Nikki, have you thought about counting the calories that you are eating, and cross referencing your calorie output..... I know that this is no the SW principle but it may help you focus.

Also the weight loss is often slow if you don't have a lot to loose. I have a stone to lose before I get out of the overweight category. If I was average, and tried to lose a stone...... it would be like pulling my finger nails out!

Yes, why, I am confused?

Is a baked apple syn free? It!!!8217;s not mushed up like stewed apple nor got added sugar.

Sunshine, if I WERE a taxi driver, I!!!8217;d get paid! Early morning run starts on Monday !!!9785;

Oh maman, I always fancied a Fiat 500; they are soooo cute. But realistically it is too small to be practical. The garage couldn!!!8217;t give me a courtesy car (usually a Fiesta) until next week, lol, hence the hire car which turned out to be a Qashqai. Once I!!!8217;d got over the shock (mine!!!8217;s a Focus) it was a lovely car to drive.

Enjoy your PJs, Mrs_R.

Well done, Nicki.

TIE, I know exactly where you are coming from. I am the world!!!8217;s worst slimmer. I had a huge gain last week, but I am telling myself that I am still on a downward slope over all, even if it is a very gentle one, otherwise I!!!8217;d just give up altogether. Last night I ended up just having a yogurt for dinner! Still don!!!8217;t think it!!!8217;ll turn things around though.

Football was rubbish and I didn!!!8217;t have a snack (maybe that!!!8217;s why!). The rugby was good though!

Today
Breakfast: hm granola (6), ff Greek yogurt
Lunch: baked potato, tuna & syboe mayo (1), mixed salad, apple
Dinner: chicken jalfrezi (lazy, used jar !!!8211; 4 ½ ), boiled rice, Liberte 0% fat blueberry yogurt
Snack: hexb toast, hexa cheese & cherry tomatoes

Evening all,

ONE LB off for me this week. Seems like a bit of a wasted few weeks as this is just losing the pound that I put on recently. Roll on March, I seem to do better at the start of a new challenge.

Continued good luck to all x

Oh & a great result.
For the rugby

Been shopping again today. I’m starting to replace the stuff I’ve been waiting ages to replace. I bought 2 pairs of jeggings and three tops although one of them is on order and I’ve to pick it up Wednesday. I also bought some badly needed vests- I wear them tight to hold me in and I usually buy them at least two sizes down from the size I usually wear. So I bought 4 size 14’s (I’m hovering between a 16 and an 18 in tops, depending on the shop) I cleared out my vest drawer and must have cleared out 30 vests in size 18 and 20 With all the stuff I’ve been getting rid of there’s 15 bags for the charity shop I was shocked at how much stuff I have! I must however stop buying tracksuits :rotfl: I’ve always loved my tracksuits and they’re very in fashion at the moment. Primarni is a particularly dangerous place right now :rotfl: I bought a gorgeous green and white one from there (complete with cropped hoodie!) that I am wearing so much at the moment. However I’m trying to make an effort to wear some of my other stuff as I seem to be wearing the same stuff so often
Today’s menu:
B: HEXB HiFi x2, Alpro choc soya drink (HEXA +1.5) satsuma
Snack (I had a later lunch) Boots Shapers sushi (2 syns) Apple, Orangina Light (2)
L: 4 Broghies (4) with salad and smoked salmon and gherkins, water
T: 2 x Aldi 5% burgers (2) with onions and mushrooms, SW chips, salad. Tbsp tomato ketchup (1) Blueberries and yoghurt. Glass of Rawsons Retreat alcohol free wine (1.5)
S: Chicken thighs, peppermint tea
Syns: 14
Hope all is well with everyone xx
