In my first week I used 15 a day and lost 5.5lbs so I think it depends on how much you need your syns. I'm into week 4 now and using about 3/4 a day now
I make exceptions for parties etc though!

Right well I'm back from holiday, will weigh myself tonight and see how much good living has added back onto me. i hope not too much.

Have started the day off with a healthy breakfast and will go back to the good food again today.

Hello girls and welcome to RosiePosey!

Well I weighed in on Monday and I had lost 1/2 pound and I was disappointed! I really thought I'd been good but when I looked through my food diary I realised I probably did sneak in a few extra treats albeit low fat ones. This week I am really sticking to the plan and I am sure come Monday I will have lost, I feel like I have so will be gutted it I haven't.

Welcome rosieposey great to have you on board.

Again not a great week and I've just been given chocolates. Went out for dinner last night (staff do) ate far to much. Then lots of cakes and biscuits at work today, tried to be good but didn't work very well just to tired (4 1/2hr sleep on top of the fact I was already behind in sleep).Yippe holidays started don't have to get up tommorrow morning that is till dd gets me up.

It not as bad as last week as I've stayed the same.

Whatever your results this week - loss/gain/no change etc, lets all make sure we stay focused on what we want to aim for and go for it! We CAN do it ladies and we WILL

I lost 2lbs this week, need to loose 2lbs next week to get my stone award at group

Ladies, if you haven't already, I urge you to take some 'before' pictures of yourself to look at when you need inspiration. I find myself looking at mine on a daily basis and i also measure we waist, boobs etc each week too!

[Have managed to eat 1/2 box of celebrations over the day . Mind skipped lunch to full of chocolate and feeling guilty. So took dd and dog for a good walk. Feeling slightly better as about 1 1/2 miles up hill on a dirt track before a very rough track tough going under foot for about a 1/2 mile. Then roughly 2 mile on road, the dog's crashed I'm tried but dd still going strong.

Well at least no chocolates to eat so can get back on track.

LovingTheRain · 24/07/2009 08:39

Welldone for getting back on track. I think we can all allow ourselves a few guilty pleasures every now and then! We wouldn't be human if we didn't!

Hello again
Did ok for 2 days then fell spectacularly off the wagon
Anyway back on the straight and narrow today again - well done LTR and Ner on your losses - gosh i hope i can join you by saying ive lost a few lbs this time next week!
Thanks for your kind welcome Have decided that i will have a goal to aim for - we are going on holiday to France (we havent booked it yet) but it will be in either 9 weeks or 12 weeks time so it would be nice to get maybe a stone and a half off for that.
Hope everyone is staying on track ok today

lexcat · 24/07/2009 19:17

Got a new goal of 1 stone by the end of the holiday. Cousin getting married mid september so got a few week leeway. Had a slim-fast day and felt constantly hungry this morning, but got better as the day went on. Still to have my main meal that I'm really looking forward too.

Hoping to try a few more slim-fast days this week just to help me get back on track.

thenamegamebeginsagain · 24/07/2009 19:18

Got a name change going on so won't say too much but welldone to all and keep your goal in mind

rosieposey · 27/07/2009 09:36

Ok, have had a good weekend and stayed on track Hope everyone else had a good one too!

LovingTheRain · 29/07/2009 13:43

Weigh in today ladies. How has the week been? I am not weighed till this evening so will report back!

OP posts:
paranoidmother · 29/07/2009 22:26

Oh Crap I've stayed the same, at least I haven't put on weight but I really wanted to lose even a lb this week.
right must keep trying - more exercise and less of everything else.

good luck to you all.

LovingTheRain · 29/07/2009 22:30

No worries Paranoidmother - you'll probably get a bigger loss next week and welldone for not giving up.

There was an article in the paper today about a lady who photographed everything she ate. I might try it for a week and see how it goes.

I lost 2.5lbs this week bring my total to 1stone and 0.5 lbs. I got slimmer of the week and slimmer of the month, couldn't believe it!!

paranoidmother · 30/07/2009 07:31

Well done LTR that's brilliant.

lexcat · 31/07/2009 21:34

Well done LTR really great to hear your doing so well. Stick with it para you've done so well so far.

Not the best week been trying really hard but felt like I was getting no where. Then to top things off had two days feeling really rough and craving anything sweet. So after all that was so pleased when stepping on the scales to be down 2lbs for this week.

Got my sister and family staying went out today for lunch today maybe out tomorrow and due out again on Sunday. Trying hard not to over indulge.

LovingTheRain · 05/08/2009 18:39

How did everyone do this week?
I lost 1.5 lbs this week so I am pleased with that.

OP posts:
lexcat · 07/08/2009 08:32

Excellent again LRT you are doing so well. Can't say the same for myself. Never easy when I have family staying my mother can't help her self and buys cake, biscuits and ice creams for the children then leaves then as she always on a diet trying to diet. Plus we end up going out for food a lot.

I have over eaten with all the wrong foods for most of the week so was really pleased to see no weigh gain, I've stayed the same as last week. Had two really good days so hope to report a loss next week as my goal of a stone over the summer hols seem to be slipping away.
