_________________________________________
Well I have started Slimming World again for the 5th time this year the first time I joined because I thought i was morbidly obese I was 12stone 4! I am now going back with my tails between my legs and weighing:

13st 7.5lbs
5ft 8"

Dress size currently varying between a 14 & 16!
I am going to be upping pictures tonight to encourage me on my (predicted very long) journey!

I feel like I have had such a bad start to the day though. I think it's because I'm a tad depressed but I'm not going to let it ruin me and this time, I am just going to take 1 day at a time.

Think I am going to have a crack at Extra Easy Plan for today:

Breakfast:
Grapes, Strawberries, pot of Low fat strawberry yoghurt. (3 syns thought it was going to be free)

Dinner:
2 Tescos own meat free sausages (0.5 syns each)
Half a tin of beans

Tea:
Quorn mince pieces, Bolagnaise sauce and going to half half a baguette of garlic bread.

5 cheddar crackers (5 syns)

Unsure on syn value but I figured I'd enjoy it and I have messed up a few times today already by mistake so I will go shopping tomorrow and be excellent tomorrow!


I just need to do this. I have gotten to far now, before I know it I will be 14 stone! My aim is to loose, no big targets or goals. I'm just at a point now where a loss is a loss. In an ideal world.

13 stone by Christmas!
Long term goal is to reach 11st 4lbs that is where I maintained for a long while and i think I look good on pictures. (Although typically I never at the time)
Goal weight where I would dance around the highstreet naked with happiness 10st10lbs!

Well yeah, thats me. I need to loose weight, I let my self down ALOT! I'm not holding my breath but maybe this time will be the time!

The pictures that gave me the kickstart I needed to loose weight My arsm are becoming dimply and my face is offically a MOON HEAD!

Aww, good luck! I think slimming world is great because of all the "free" foods on certain days! I've done this before and I'll be doing it again once baby is about one. So, I'll be following your diary for inspiration x

I know what you mean, as soon as you aren't allowed something it becomes tastier than ever! I think the best way is to just really fill up on the free foods. I know the first time I did it I felt a bit like I couldn't reaaaally have as much of the free foods as I wanted and that if I felt full, I must have been doing something wrong so it didn't really work but the next time was much better.

Heh, I've tried a trillion different diets! The best one I ever did was atkins but it didn't last long. Slimming world is the best long term one I've tried.

People do say "everything in moderation" and just to eat healthily but when you have a goal, a structured diet really helps! x
