Do you know what - I am soooo confused. I haven't really a foggiest what I am doing on this diet!! Perhaps I need to go to a few meetings to get up to speed on what I should and shouldn't be eating!! LOL

Gave OH a telling off for putting butter on rolls, he apologised loads.

Also my trousers for my second job, over the past few weeks have been feeling quite loose but I put them on last night and they were tight!! I've been on a diet for the past few days, how can that be?!!

*sulks*

TMD - do you have some old books there?

Start by deciding Red or Green as a daily plan, and we can help from there.

Do you think today will be Red (original) - mainly meat/fish based, or Green - mainly carb (potato, pasta, beans etc) and vegi based?

Do you have access to the website yet? Using the food diary on there will teach you much of what you need to know, as you can only allowed to enter what you are allowed to eat (hope that makes sense)

I've only got one book and that is dated January 2004.

I think I'm having a green day today, trouble is we go to MIL on a Wednesday night for dinner (my only night off practically!) and we have no choice on what she cooks us, so I'm trying to stay syn free so that I will be ok for this evening!! LOL

I have logged onto the website but I havent got this weeks password, could you pm it me?

Does the food diary on the website work the syns out for you?

TMD - your trousers might be tight due to time of the month/water retention/body getting used to new foods. Its not unusual (as a welshman once said) so please don't worry! They will feel loose again if you stick with it!

TMD. I've found my OH has been......... insensitive I think is the kindest way of putting it, day of my first WI I came back from being away for 5 days. He came to meet and proudly gave me 2 140g bars of dairy milk! Since then he's ate the light cheese slices I had, and replaced with cheap normal ones. And bought a massive bag of frozen chips!:mad:

Aw, don't be mad or upset - just talk to him about it. Tell him that this is something you really want to do (tell him its for him if an ego boost would work better) and explain that you shouldn't be eating chocolate (or words that suit you) and will make your own chips. (I find SW chips that have been par-boiled and then frozen cook a lot quicker anyway - and he'll always feel there are some easily availble!) Use them up giving him the bought ones and make your own for you.

Thanks for the PM

Well I have weigh in tonight but not expecting miracles. Was off work all last week and at the weekend went to a spa overnight, the deal included 3 course evening meal and full english breakfast (SAY NO MORE )

Also though, I finally got my blood test results and yes the thyroid check came back abnormal, which does explain the cold, tiredness, lack of concentration and the 4 months plus it has taken me to lose 13lbs. Got doc's tomorrow who will probably up my dose of Thyroxine :T

Good luck to all WI tonight

Skint Katt, He keeps saying he want to do SW as well cos he wants to lose a bit of weight too! The chocolate is just sitting on top of the fridge untouched. He already knows there is a bit of food in the flat that I don't want to eat anymore, as I'm determined to stick to this. He's agreed once all the naughty stuff is used up (full fat cheese slices, pringles, frozen chips) he'll try and stick to the plan the way I do. At the moment he's hoping he'll lose a bit just by having the same evening meals as me and has started to weigh himself regularly
And he does tell me each week once I've told him the WI result how proud of me he is. So he isn't all bad
