Slimming world newbie here with no will power..........I CAN do this...right ?

Hellooooo everyone, this is my first time on minimins and this will be my second attempt at sw.I know it works as ive done it before but i really struggle with motivation....although i know end results will be worth it i always find greedypigsyndrome kicks in lol.Anyway im going to really push myself this time as my health is suffering with this excess weight and i refuse to buy bigger clothes. If anyone else is on sw and wants a buddy im here, itd be nice to share recipe ideas and diarys as i always find myself eating the same stuff , hence i get bored and reach for the takeaway menu . Anyway.....here goes day one.. good luck peeps xx

Hello and welcome to minimins, I know what you mean, I myself have NO willpower, but I put my size 10 jeans out and whenever I wanted a biscuit etc, I would look at the jeans and think do I want a biscuit or fit in the jeans?!! 99% the jeans would win, not always I am human and star weeks I find hard for the chocolate craving lol. Please take each day as it comes if you have a bad day DON'T give up draw a line under it start fresh tomorrow and you will get there, xx

good idea, i might have to hang my size 10 jeans on the fridge lol, well today is day 1, i figure planning ahead is the key so i made dinner last night, morrocan cous cous, very yummy indeed. I have cleared the house of any temptation, my poor kids will not know whats hit them. I plan on getting them involved in making some treats so we can all eat them

What a great idea, and it will teach your children healthy eating from a young age, good luck and if you want any help I'm here if you need me x

last week there was a dreadful photo taken of me on holiday, so I'm going to put it on my phone, in my wallet and on my fridge as a constant reminder of why this time i will stick to the plan!!

Great idea about the jeans! My hubby would think I have gone crazy though! lol love the greedypigsyndrome! Sounds like me!
