Another week has gone by and I am checking in with my weight loss diary once again. I had a fairly good week eating wise, although did eat quite a bit of chocolate – all synned correctly though and never went over my syns. I even indulged in some pancakes on Sunday evening – one with banana, cinnamon and a lemon Muller Light all together and the others with just banana and cinnamon. I didn’t make the syn free pancakes and of course, the yoghurt was half a syn so it was quite a massive syn treat but as I had only used a small amount of syns that day, I felt like I deserved that treat – especially as I had missed Pancake Day!
I was really worried about stepping on the scales yesterday as despite being good all week, I had started feeling a bit icky on Sunday and that turned out to be a full blown cold, complete with the headaches and nausea. I went to Willows Farm yesterday and even managed to help out on two sessions of Slimming World (dosed up on Lemsip which I didn’t bother to syn!) but I fell into bed once I got in. What I did eat yesterday whilst out wasn’t good and I was so sure it would bite me on the bum in the evening.
So what did I see when I stepped on the scales?
Yep, I managed a 2lb weight loss this week. I was so sure that I had sabotaged myself and was so pleased to still see a loss! This means I have lost 12lb overall and managed to lose 2lb in a week where I had not only Valentines Day but my fiance’s birthday, my mums birthday, a birthday party and a meal round Steve’s parents which was almost certainly going to end up in a takeaway curry (it did!). The 4lb I set as my weekly target was realistically never going to happen but I’m glad I got a loss nevertheless.
I am now just 2lb away from hitting my stone and am so motivated to get it next week. I’ve meal planned for the week although have adjusted that a little this evening due to feeling ill – I couldn’t be bothered to cook but I still had a Slimming World dinner albeit their ready meal Veggie pasta – still syn free though! I’m hoping to get a ton of exercise in this week and weekend, especially with it being half term and doing lots of walking so fingers crossed I come back to you with positive news next week!
Aw well done you – you know I personally find these posts difficult but I do understand weight issues from the other spectrum so do truly understand your goal x Well done you x
Yayy well done sweetheart, that’s fabulous!
Sorry to hear that you’ve been feeling under the weather, so good that you didn’t go over your syns still I eat like a trooper when I’m not feeling well, I feel all sorry for myself haha!

Well done! It just shows that you can enjoy things like pancakes in moderation, and still lose weight.
well done hun. I need to lose a stone and a half, but it is hard to find the motivation to go to the gym
That’s great news, well done on losing 2lbs this week, I put on a pound when I got weighed Saturday but i’m determinded to get a good figure this week. Good luck getting your stone! x
Well done! You’re doing so well, my losses have just plateaued and its really annoying me… I got to 4 and a half stone then I just stayed there, I just need the last 3 and a half to go! I’ve been stuck now for 6 months with no losses but luckily no gains! xxx
Sorry to hear that you haven’t been feeling well, how are you feeling now? Well done for the 2 lb weight loss!
Congrats! So happy to see that you are moving forward with your goal….
Well done you! I wont be having a loss this week (this evening) but I hope to next week! I need a kick up the backside haha
Woo! It’s always encouraging seeing those numbers drop. I hope the next week is healthy too!
WTG! You’re doing so well! I need to take a leaf out of your book. Also, your pancakes sound amazing 😀 xx

Sorry to hear you’ve come down with a cold, I hope you’re feeling better soon! x
It’s not just about the scales, but it’s always nice to see your hard work being rewarded and get that sense of achievement. Good on you! x
Well done. I find focusing on scales makes everything worse for me. I tend to judge by how my clothes fit xo
Well done 😀 Great to know your missing out on pancake day was worth it.
Well done, you had treats and still lost that is fantastic! x #weightlosswednesday
Well done on your further weight loss. You’re an inspiration, I need to get my diet in shape x
It’s wonderful when that happens and obviously having a cold makes everything that much worse but you also seem to be ready to knuckle down again and really think about what you will be eating this coming week so that looks very positive for future weight losses – well done you!
Well done honey, you are obviously putting a lot of effort into it, and losing a little at a time is always a good thing. Good luck.
You are making amazing progress! It’s really inspiring to see your progress posts each week 🙂 Hope you reach that stone soon!
Well done, you are making really good progress! Losing weight can be so difficult
Yay well done Bex, that is brilliant, I hope you are proud of yourself x
What a fantastic loss – even with all the special occasions! Slimming World is definitely working for you and you will be hitting that stone loss very soon! Well done lovely! 🙂 Thank you for linking up with #WeightLossWednesday – hope you are having a fantastic week! Sim xx
