Um. I'm back, and I'm embarrassed
. I have been totally ignoring SW since about October and surprise surprise, I've put almost all my weight back on. I feel like an absolute idiot - I was only losing very slowly anyway, and now it's back to square one. I've also had that stupid cold that comes with a lovely three week cough, so I haven't been going to spin class either and generally just feel like a great lump.
Anyway, I've given myself a shake and am getting back on track TODAY. A stone and a half to go, and I'm aiming to be done by the beginning of May. That's 11 weeks and means I'll have to lose 2lbs a week, which is more than my usual glacial pace of 1lb a week so I'm going to have to be really good, including eating out and not hitting the wine at the weekend.
The good part is that I do find SW rules easy to follow when I'm actually cooking for myself, and I do really like veg, so I'm hoping it won't feel too difficult.
Today will be:
B: Weetabix and milk
L: Jacket potato with cottage cheese & pineapple, and a side salad - will probably use some syns for a bit of dressing and some bits to jazz up the salad - maybe bacon bits or crispy onions
D: Smoked salmon pasta - speed from lots of added rocket
Snack will be mini babybel mozarella and some greek yogurt if I can get my act together and go to the shops to actually buy it.
