4lb Challenge Result...

Stayed on plan. 

Used my syns wisely. 

Upped my water intake. 

Tried new recipes and was never hungry. Couldn't be happier! 

Here's to another fab week, aiming for 3lb next week!

I'd be totally honest and say I didn't deserve it, if I felt that way. But I've made such good decisions and worked really hard that if I hadn't have got it I would have been gutted! My aim for the week is to mix up my healthy extras again so I'm not having the same everday. I also want to keep up my increased water intake & try some new recipes. So hoping it all works in my favour and I can get the 3lb I want next week while will take me back to where I was a few weeks ago (I lost 8lb in 2 weeks and then gained 8lbs over 3).

I have 4 weigh ins left of my 6 week countdown and then I go to Frankfurt with work, I want to aim to be on the stone mark (or even into the next stone bracket) by then, so from now I need 6lbs. Meaning I need 1.5lbs per week for the next 4 weeks to get it or a little bit more if I'm honest. It's totally do able as I've shown myself this week, I'm just glad that it isn't more so I don't feel as pressured to get it.

Currently 13lbs from target!

Weigh Day

I am ecstatic that I managed to lose 4.5lbs this week. Determination paid off! But also a little gutted it wasn't 1 extra lb so i'd get my 2 stone! Ah well, next week!!!

Weight Gain

So tonight I gained 2lbs. I half expected it after the terrible week. Back on plan now and this photo has given me the boost I needed, took it earlier and its a dress I didnt wear for ages because I didn't feel comfortable in it. And now its almost too big! Feeling positive about the week ahead and going to be completely on plan!

Also NEW HIFI BARS ARE YUM!
Anyone else tried them yet?

Cinnamon Swirls

It's literally just a chilled sheet of Jus-roll pastry (61 syns) or you can use the light one for 53, then in a bowl mix 2tbsp sweetener with 2 tbsp cinnamon, add a little water to make a paste and then spread it across the pastry. 

I divided the pastry into two to make the small ones for taster but you don't have to. 

Then you simple roll it up and pop it in the freezer for 5/10 mins as it's easier to cut. 

Take it out and cut into as many pieces as you want then bake for approx 10 mins on 180 degrees. 

Or until golden brown. They're lovely. 

I managed to make 60 small ones for taster making it 1 syn each but you can adjust accordingly :) 

Biscuit Fix!

Decided to make a few new things to mix it up a bit. First on my list was these lovely biscuits from the Christmas book, I didnt decorate them so they are only approx 1 syn each and great for dipping in your brew!

Tandem Sky Dive

So on 5th September 2015, I jumped out of a plane for Ovarian Cancer Action, raising close to £700 for charity and taking my fundraising total to way over £3,000 for them. I wouldn't have been able to do it without losing the weight with SW as when I started I was over the heaviest limit. But after 6 months on SW I was finally able to jump, comfortably, and tick it off my bucket list. Here are some of my photos from the day, would recommend to anyone!

Spag Bol

It's so good when your other half produces SW friendly meals like this. Yummy!

New me

2st 8 difference. Can't believe how awesome I'm feeling at the moment. I go on holiday a week tomorrow and I will be going 1st 8lb lighter than I would if I hadn't have joined SW in March! 

Couldn't be happier with how far I've come!
