Weigh day for me tomorrow. Went totally off plan Saturday (stop reading now if u don't want to know what off plan foods)
included fish shop, trip to wensleydale cheese factory and lots of cheese, cream scones, crisps, chocolate truffles, more cheese and icecream. It was really nice! Been on plan 100% the other 6 days. I'd usually cut my syns down to help damage limitation but I haven't this time as I'm under target by 4lb so a gain wouldn't be a bad this week (I have to pay if not)

Bowbridge · 28/05/2019 08:49

Just wear a jumper and jeans to weigh-in, that's 2lb. A trip to the fish shop for a treat sounds much better though.

I ended up going 9lb over target, it is a slippery slope. I hope to get back to target this Thursday.

OwlinaTree · 28/05/2019 10:50

I might not go tonight, I'm off work and might just leave it! I'm at target, so I don't have to go every week.

Well done Groove I lost 1lb

Mabellavender · 28/05/2019 19:35

Found out I’m pregnant today Shock

It’s planned but didn’t think it would happen as fast because last baby took 6 months to conceive! Feeling so happy but dieting has completely gone out the window today, took the kids to the cinema and I had a big fried chicken burger and sweet potato fries at GBK before plus chocolate and popcorn while we were watching the film Blush

Don’t know how I’m going to manage once the sickness sets in but I would like to try and stick to it.

Congratulations Mabel!

2lb off for me this week, that's 5.5 in total after three weeks. I wasn't totally on plan over the weekend, but still ate considerably leas than I would have done previously. Been drinking lots of water too. I seem to be finding it easier than I did last time, I think the extra dairy allowance is great (can never remember which is A and which is B).

Where do you all keep your SW card? I am trying to streamline the contents of my purse so put it with my book but it keeps falling out.

Bowbridge · 29/05/2019 19:45

Congratulations Mabel. Lovely news!

I keep my card on the front of my book in a clear plastic pouch that was there when I signed up. Your SW leader should give you one.

I remember diAry and fiBre.

Weigh-in tomorrow for me. I am not having tea as I am determined to hit target in the morning. Starving!

ExpletiveDelighted · 29/05/2019 20:13

Do you mean the big pouch with all the books in? That's what mine keeps falling out of. IIRC last time there was a special slot for it. I only carry a tiny purse with my debit card and emergency tenner in it most of the time, the rest of my cards stay at home unless I need them, I think I'll put it with them and try and remember to pick it up with my book every week.

JaceLancs · 29/05/2019 23:58

Gained 3 this week am gutted - thought I might maintain as had a meal out the night before weigh in
Back on it today though

Bowbridge · 30/05/2019 08:16

No, not in the big pouch. It is actually on the front of your book that they write your weight in. It is a clear plastic sleeve, the size of your card, in the bottom right hand corner. Very handy, and means I never lose mine.

ExpletiveDelighted · 30/05/2019 10:12

Oh, my book hasn't got that, I think that's what I remember from last time. I am finding myself standing in line fumbling about with handbag, SW card, debit card and books at the moment.

How frustrating Jace. That happened to the person I was sitting next to yesterday too.

Our consultant no longer does the plastic pouches in books. But mine is in there as I still have my original book.

We got given plastic pouches in December for ours but I leave mine in my purse as I'll often use it at subway for discount etc

Bowbridge · 31/05/2019 09:02

Missed hitting target by 0.5lb. Gutted!

Ilikeyourbeard · 31/05/2019 11:49

Hi ladies

Can I join? Started yet again last night, hoping I don’t fail this time.

Had choc weetabix minis for lunch with some strawberries and almond milk.

Orzo primavera pasta salad for lunch, with a hifi and a cheese string for afters.

Making firecracker chicken and salad for dinner later.

I’m also at the end of the second week of couch to 5k, feeling pretty good right now. I have 3st 10 to lose til target.

Good luck all

Ilikeyourbeard · 31/05/2019 11:49

The choc weetabix was breakfast, doh

ExpletiveDelighted · 31/05/2019 12:21

I didn't know you could use the card for discounts Fivenights, good tip.
