Hi guys and girls
I joined slimming world 2 weeks ago yesterday ...
First week I lost 4.5lbs! Really pleased...had it in my head I would lose a few more than that as I constantly read people losing loads in the first week, but 4.5lbs is still good! I weighed in last night and lost another 2.5lbs, to make my first 1/2 stone and also got slimmer of the week!
I have a LOT of weight to lose, but am so glad I'm doing SW and eating properly, no fads for me!
My genetics are against me, my mum reached 32 stone before going private for a gastric bypass - diets have never worked for her! So much so that she lost half her body weight, and has now put half of that back on, WITH the gastric bypass! I'm hoping I can change the cycle but we shall see! My sister is the same weight as me - well half a stone heavier, my aunt, my nan (all the women in the family!)
I hope I can crack it this time! I did slimming world over 10 years ago when I was 16-18 years old and lost about 6 stone, so hoping I can achieve that and more this time too! I got married in April and did not even attempt to lose any weight for the wedding as I was me, and hubby loves me for me but since the wedding has now been and gone, I want to do this, hubby is on board(from home) and has lost 6lb in the 2 weeks so really proud of him for sticking with it and being so supportive!
