Well who deserves a big smiley face sticker today! ME!
The diet went great today and I think I might have nailed it! I am starting to resist temptations and doing really well.
Skipped brekkie today and went for a ham toastie at lunch (Having an original day so the ham was allowed and the bread was my Hb) Then I didn't eat until I got back from rainbows at 7 and i cooked a chicken dinner. Chicken breast, sprouts (parp alert), broccoli, carrots and my potatoes in skins (Hb) and gravy (3.5 syns) Then between those I had a diet coke with a jaffa cake in morrisons (2.5 syns) and 3 chocolate fingers (4.5 syns) So overall I personally feel pleased with todays results.
Had a lot of stress today though which I spose has helped take my mind off eatin. lol. Story for another day I am sure.
Well it's late and I'm sleepy and have to be up early for dance class so it's time to climb the stairs n curl up away from the sub zero temperatures outside. HA! (Thank jesus for central heating!)
Oh before I leave you check out this video: It's bloody hirrarious! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meALhh0vrxM I'm gonna get me a tee!
Sweet dreams and have a good Saturday!

農曆新年 - Happy New Year
農曆新年 - Happy New Year (in Chinese obviously) Bit late I know but at least I gave it a thought!
CHINESE! The reason for me starting my blog today with that was beacause... I had it for my dinner tonight. It was the dogs wotsits! Really was delicious and I counted it all in my syns. Weighed it out and plated it all up and it looked HUGE! I couldn't believe it, actually i still can't and I am onna double check with my SW buddy and my leader when i go Monday to weigh-in. It was a lot bigger than I expected. Anyway I had chicken chow mein, heaps of rice and even Chinese chips! Mmmmm
Felt really full afterwards because I hadn't had nothing since brunch. I felt slightly naughty but it was well worth it.
Brunch i ahd same old salad with a hame sandwich and 2 boiled eggs. Nothing new there.
Anyway lets get onto the snow!
It has made me very lazy. I just can't seem to warm myself up enough to hop on the Wii fit. I have been a bad bad girl this week so far when it comes to exercise! Done about 20 minutes on the Wii fit all week. I have been walking too and from school now and then when Neal doesn't want to go or the girls want me to take them and I do walk around town for a couple of hours a week but that's nothing out the norm so I don't count it. Need to get back into the swing. Did great last week. Bet I haven't lost any weight this week! :( I have been trying. But I'm a greedy bloater and its hard work. lol.
Speaking of the snow this is what my hubby and girls got upto this evening while me and my son faught to get his coat on to take a short trip to a neighbours! THAT was hard work. Burned about 300 calories in teh struggle, then we had to get his shoes back on him. Anyway, fights with my 1 year old son i will save for another blog. Heres the pic...
Kids are being good and since i told them, for the 20th time at the weekend, that mummy isn't allowed to have a crisp or a bite of their chocolate, they haven't let me. Cait slips now and then but Angel is constantly reminding me (sort of rubbing it in my face unintentionally actually) She comes home from school with her goodies and says things like, your not allowed these are you mummy, you can only have grown up food! Bless her cotton socks!
It's great that I'm not doing this on my own because I feel like if I let myself down I also let Kez down an I really don't want to do that. If I keep letting myself down I know I am gonna stop going. AND I REALLY DON'T WANT TO STOP GOING! I like it. The group leader is fab and everyone else there is nice and helpful. Just need something to give me a kick up the arse really.
Well I have yabbered enough and just want to say hope you all stay safe in the snow. If your anything like me you feel like you want to curl up and wait for spring to get here!
Have a good Friday x

Today went well
Breakfast consisted of 2 skinny slices of well trimmed bacon, 2 boiled eggs and a slice of this nasty crap bread I got in Morrisons yesterday! Enjoyed the eggs but as the bacon wasn't cooked well enough it basiaclly tasted like crap! If i ahdn't have been stressing about nothing (you know those times where you feel like you got 100 things to do and your hands are working backwards)
Skipped lunch because I didn't eat breakfast till 11 so it was nil-by-mouth till dinner. I am having an Original day today, which for those of you who don't already know is a day where you get to eat mostly pasta rice or lentils and heaps of the green stuff. So I opted for a lean beef, vegetable and lentil stew. Was yummy, but it sort of shrunk as I cooked it so I just demolished a jacket potato with cheese.
Day has gone well so far but I am still craving something sweet.
Been spending a bit of time on a forum with other slimmers and when I told them my late night sweet cravings they gave me tons and tons of great ideas, but the same one cropped up as what mubbs told me. The SW Ferero Roche's! (not really sure thats how you spell it) They really do sound fab and I am deff gonna try them. I will read again how to do it and post it up tomorrow, for any of you who wanna try it.
Well I am off to play Call Of Duty and try to stop thinking about that Wholenut in the cupboard. It's been sat there over a week and I have been so good so far. I think I might keep it as a treat for when i lose my first 10lb!
Have a good Thursday!

First week at fat club!
I have recently started a diet and I thought I would share my journey with the world by blogging. Not only that if I put it down in words I am more likely to stick at it and remember where i went wrong. My starting weight was 17st 6 and half lb. I am 5'9 and after having 3 kids my body is no longer what it used to be. I am a size 20 and generally a fatty. I joined slimming world on the 26th of January. At first it was slightly confusing and to be honest I couldn't really grasp what I was and wasn't meant to be eating and how much syns were and all sorts of new dieting stuff. I have never tried to diet properly before so it was all new for me. I was eager to get going and for the best part of the week I didn't eat much as I had my nose stuck in the SW book.
Monday I didn't really have a clue so I pretty much just ate what I thought would be ok. Tuesday I was a superstar and stuck to the rules and was very well behaved. Same went for Wednesday. On Wednesday afternoon I had a lovely long phone call from my group leader who set a few things straight for me and gave me a few hints and tips. Rest of Wednesday went great. Thursday I sort of broke a few rules, well I lost it again really and ended up eating a few things I shouldn't have. I did well on Friday and Saturday but Sunday U was a pig! I had a huge Sunday lunch with lots of gravy, and 2 Yorkshire puddings. I had a ice cream for pudding and then later in the day I ate a bowl of cereal. I did use sweetener though (bit of a contradiciton that, like ordering a diet coke with a KFC Bucket!)
This week I went to SW and confessed my sins before stepping on the scales and even though I had been cheating and weight guessing i had still lost 2lb. I was impressed with this but i desperately want to be slightly skinner by the end of the month. So my aim for next week is 3lb.
I have also been trying to boost my weight loss by jiggling my wobbly bits on the Wii fit. I find its better than excercising because I dont have to drag my behind out in the cold and if I look a prat its only me my hubby and the kids who laugh.
It is now Tuesday and wow have i f*cked up already! Yesterday i went over my 15 syn a day allowance by about 7-8 and today i was in town, completely forgot myself and gobbled down a sausage roll from Greggs the bakers! OMG! Never again. I checked the syn value online and WOW 28 and half syns! I am buggered for the rest of the week now! Well i have been on my best after finding that out and i have been syn free all day. I am hoping that i can leave today and yesterday behind me and carry on as i should. I am finding it so hard to say no to the crisps in the cupboard or to not take that trip to the shop for a chocolate bar.
Oh well tomorrow is another day!
