Update for me

I've had as planned my main meals

so I'm around 8 syns today and I really don't feel like eating anything else I did have a huge tea though and I don't have to use my syns do I?

I also went swimming and did about 40 lengths 🏊‍♀️

@Bl0ndi3 my god I doubt I could ever run 2k well done you for getting that far!

2lb off for me this week, and I have achieved my Platinum Body Magic thingy, so quite pleased.
Not talking food today though as its my youngest son's birthday and we are going to the pub for dinner.I don't believe special days should be affected by the fact that I am dieting. I will try to choose something reasonable but not beating myself up over syns.
I've got a cake to bake too. We went blackberry picking after school yesterday so he's asked for a blackberry and apple cake. Well that's 2 of my 5 a day right?!

I've shifted my weigh in day to tuesdays now to track my weight through pregnancy by the week and Tuesday is the start of a new pregnancy week for me.

I've lost 1.5lbs since last Tuesday which I'm happy with, I don't think it will be healthy for me to have major losses now I'm pregnant anyway and will probably aim for max 1lb losses as time goes on and then maintains if possible! Wishful thinking most likely!

B - coffee (part A + 1)
L - frittata (part A) with new pots and salad
D - vegan shawarma lettuce kebabs (1.5) with cheesey chips (A)

S - skinny crunch (B)

I did have a bit of cheese on toast earlier but I cba working out the syns haha so I'm just going to have minimal syns today now. Also planning on going swimming again later on.

Well done @MrsAvocet

T is chilli con carne

I lost 3lbs this week. Really happy, wasn’t expecting that much at all. Today’s food:

B - 2 hifi bars (HEB)

I'm at around 12 syns which would be fine if I hadn't had the cheese in toast but oh well 😂 it's weigh day so I'll allow myself the treat

Hi blondes and jingle

Brunch-veg soup
Lunch- hand full of chips and two glasses of wine
Dinner- spaghetti bolognese

Been at a funeral today hence the random lunch. I'm cooking spaghetti now to stop me eating anymore crap! Dh was trying to persuade me to go out for dinner but I'm not. We will have a bottle of wine and bad food then I will feel rough tomorrow and eat more crap and so it continues into the weekend... we are eating out on Saturday too so I'm being sensible tonight. Even though I don't feel like it

Hope everyone is having a good day.

@troppibambini oh no I started laughing at your really random lunch and then saw where you had been ☹️ sorry for your loss lovely xxx

However I will aim to not snack except for on an apple and maybe a banana if needs be tonight.

Hope you’re ok @troppibambini

lost 2.5lbs this week but of course had gained 2lbs over the last fortnight so it's now gone with a cheeky half pound with it! really need to be good again this week as have been hovering around this weight for weeks now and need to push through it, although going to a friends tomorrow for pizza and wine which won't help!

L - cheese toastie and the dregs of the tomato soup (HEA, HEB and 1/2 syn mayo for the toastie)

T - leftover spag bol with parmesan (HEA) and a slice of garlic bread (7 syns)

S - fruit and a wispa (8.5 syns)

been dreaming of the wispa since last night but managed to exercise some self control for a good loss

Well done @JingleAndTonic

@troppibambini sorry for funeral

I sts. Not surprised as had 2 takeaways last weekend due to friend

Better that than a gain @Blondeshavemorefun ! Onwards and downwards

Well done @JingleAndTonic

I was planning to do Greek lamb kebabs for dinner tonight, was so looking forward to it but the Tesco shopping just arrived and they forgot my lamb - despite charging me for it! Can’t go out to the shops as still isolating while waiting for Covid results.
Oh well, I’ve changed the plan to chicken souvlaki which I’m sure will still be nice!

Thanks guys don't worry @Bl0ndi3 I would probably have laughed too! Because of Covid we couldn't have a buffet they had to give us plates of food so it was tricky not to eat when someone plonks a mountain of sandwiches and chips in front of you... fortunately dh helped me out

Well done jingle and blondes!

L- soup
D-sausage (1.5) mash, peas and broccoli gravy (2)

Not been that hungry today not like me at all.
