Bellys to Bumps

[EmmyReece]

My biggest struggle is emotional eating, if I'm stressed or upset then I reach for food, I'm trying to turn it around so that when I do reach for food it's either fruit or a yoghurt, I think that's going to be a work in progress And any days that I'm at my mum's if I don't plan properly, I always end up making bad choices

hi girls i have spent all evening looking through your posts and they are really inspiring so im hoping that i may join u!

a little about me.........

my names sarah and im 23 years old and hubby is 22. We have a 6 and a half year old daughter and got married nearly 4 years ago.

after having my daughter so young i had an implanon put in but 2 and a half years ago me and hubby decided that we were in a great place to have another baby and give our daughter a brother or sister.

well since having my daughter i put on about three stone and when i went for a scan i was told that i have cysts on my ovaries which accounted for a lack of periods (maybe one every year).

i have been waiting to be put on clomid by my FS but the waiting has drained me so we have decided to go privatly and now have an appointment on the 13th.

since the beging of the year i have dropped from 12st.13lb to 10.10. Which i am very happy about but i would like to get in the healthy range before my appointment.

i hope to get to know u all better baby dust to alll xxxx:

Can I join?I am 5'5 and I weigh 316 I am ttc my first child i have 1 right ovary and 1 Fallopian tube my dr said I should have no problems ttc I'm still concerned this is my 2nd month ttc

 

[cranberry987]

Tartex is yeast pâté. Sounds manky doesn't it but it's amazing!! It's 2.5 syns for a sandwich worth but I dunno how much that is. It's also lush on hot toast - been struggling to find something for toast.

I'm gonna have some now!

And welcome iwantone. We're ntnp (really nt haha as that would involve sex and also my cycles aren't back) and it took us clomid to get Preg this time so might be a while. I was here while ttc before tho so am back to lose more weight

Weighing in today and going to later class and I can't wait til 1pm to eat so it all feels wrong!!

 

[cranberry987]

And hi bbw

 

[EmmyReece]

hope everyone is doing ok

I'm back on it 100% with sw today and have to say I feel so much better for it

I've switched back to extra easy as the green or red days were starting to confuse me and have to say today has gone really well

Today it's looked like this ...

Breakfast - blueberries, grapes and strawberries followed by mint muller light
Snack - watermelon
Lunch - chicken, tomato and cucumber
Snack - 2 of my graze boxes (14 syns)
Dinner - Pork steak cooked in a roasting bag with an oxo cube, parika and garlic salt (it came out a lot better than it sounds), with cottage cheese, tomato and cucumber
Snack - apple slices and then later I'm going to have weetabix so I can get my hexa and hexb

 

[cranberry987]

I stayed the same yday which is ok as I'd eaten loads before WI so that's probably my usual lb.

That looks like a rly good day Emmy. Well done

 

[EmmyReece]

Thanks cran

Have got tomorrow all planned out, I've got the car at home and was meant to go back to mum's tomorrow, but I'm thinking I might spend the day in the garden if we get lots of sun again Plus it'll be easier to stick to plan as there won't be any temptation for naughty snacks

EDIT** yeah I bet you've lost your usual which also means you'll need to lose 2lbs for your 2 stone sticker

 

[twinkle1975]

Yum Emmy that sounds nice.

Cran well done!

I've not WI'd this week as I'm just sitting at home bored & ill & I'm eating out of boredom!

 

[EmmyReece]

just concentrate on getting better for now hun, we can get you back on track when you're feeling more like yourself xx

 

[cranberry987]

I don't blame you twinks. I think I had shingles mildly tbh as i felt ok apart from the pain and itching ofc but I got lots of sympathy so ppl must have thought it was awful!

 

[twinkle1975]

I think I've got the other bit - not much pain or itching just totally knackered!!
