Day 1 Feelng aprehensive, and maybe a bit annoyed at starting today. Went around Tesco to get the rest of the familys food and kept thinking i could just put it off another day and have these sticky ribs or this christmas pudding or these choclate bars and that icecream. Wishing i could stuff a whole lotta nice but fattening food into my mouth. Even my boyfriend said "oh i thought you would wait until Jan to start" Urgh wish i could hibernate this weight off :-( NOt exactly a positive first post but trying to be truthfull here in the hope it will keep me honest with myself and this diet. At 18 stone and 9lbs and 5ft7 and a bit I cant kid on that i dont need to lose the fat. Apart from I look terrible in and out of clothes, i get out of breath walking and as my boyfriend says i should be healthy for the kids sake if not my own. So Im about to have my last shake of the day and to be honest its not been a bad day, ive been peckish, a smidge hungry but nothing too bad. Lets see how tomorrow goes x
 
It gets easier after a few days, the first few days are the worst. When you start seeing the weight come off, you will be happier to continue xx
 
Hello,
I agree-it's not just about how we look and feel when we see our reflections or try on clothes - it's the internal health aspect too.
A lot of people with illnesses and damage to their health unfortunately can't do anything about it - but this big damaging unhealthy weight IS something that we can fight and do something about to make us much healthier... For ourselves and our families. And the confidence, nice fitting clothes and a happy smiley reflection is all an added (blooming brilliant) bonus!! :)
Plus there's no point delaying the start. The mind games and what you're own brain can do to you is incredible - which is why these forums are great!! They help keep you focused.
If you delayed your start until January you will forever be thinking, ahh if only I'd started back when I wanted to I would be 3,4,5lbs down by now ;)
The sooner you start the sooner the weight drops and the sooner you can get around those sales for smaller sizes.
Good luck :)
 
Thanks for reading peeps, just reinforcing to myself now is the time to do it and not later.

So Day 2

Anyone else get insomnia on slim and save?

I'm on my day 1 today and I can totally relate! Also having done this plan before I know it does get easier (much easier) week 2.

I'll be following your journey.

I have just started day two, this is my first try at slim and save. Have managed to wake up with a banging headache but expected it after reading other diaries. Day one was better than i thought. Why is it the mention of the word diet and i become obsessed with food? Good luck with your journeys.

Hello!!

I get obsessed with food too - but in a weird way. When doing SnS I love watching all the cooking programmes! Doesn't make me want to eat, I just have a weird strange obsession with watching them!! Lol.
I'm restarting today - so today is day one. Yikes.
Am waiting it out as long as possible before having my first pack and am planning an early night - so the day will seem shorter! Ha ha! Weird I know, but helps me mentally to think I have less time between packs so I don't have to wait too long feeling hungry!! Xx
 
I actually find having bad foods around the house a good thing for me. I know I can choose to eat it and stay fat or I can have the packs and get slim. It's my choice, no-one is forcing me to do it. Thinking in that way makes me feel like I'm in control and makes doing S&S much easier xx
 
Hello Ladies!

Mid afternoon Day 3

Took awhile to get to sleep but i did and slept through so that was nice, woke up not starving again nice feeling. So had two pack so far coffee and water. Decided to wax my eyebrows and chin (been terribly hairy since i had kids and got fat :-( ) So took bubs out to the shopping center for wax and to distract myself. But to be honest i dont feel like i need distracting. I do like to think about my food packs lol and what veg or protein im having. Not quite into watching food porn yet, but think i might start feeding my OH up as he needs it.

Since i waxed the eyebrows i thought i should straighten my hair and paint my nails. Look in the mirror and realise how much ive just gave up on since getting pregnant last year. I dont wear nice clothes and never ear make up anymore. Well i think i will be putting in more effort, its funny how you can lose yourself without noticing.

Ohhh and popped into Holland and Barretts and got the noodles people are on about, so will try them out with tonight cheesy pasta since ive heard its so saucy.

That's the ultimate goal. To be able to be around 'bad' food and not be tempted by it.
I need to be married to a personal trainer/ nutritionist to keep me on straight and narrow lol

Ahh you need to have words with your OH lol!! I had to give mine a stern talking to - first time I did this he was soooo supportive, but now I'm on my restart to get down to goal he forgot how hard it is and blooming offered me a hot mince pie with cream!! Do you want it? Of course I flaming want it!!!!!!!! But I just have him the death stare and he eventually apologised!! He's gone now for two weeks so luckily the food in the house is very minimal which will help!! I know I need to learn to live with it - but as Xmas has shown - I clearly can't!! I wonder if I ever will?!!

How's your day going? The ketosis fairy will be knocking on your doorstep very soon!! Xx
 
Hellooooooo Ive not run off into the food dark side. I had an inpromotu trip to york and only just back. Was really annoying actually as i had to stay with OH mum and deal with his family plus him announcing to EVERY person we came into contact that "she cant have that , she's on a diet" Hate that!

So did struggle and sneaked 3 white chocolate coins into my tummy. Totally confirming im an emotional eater. But Weigh In day today and guess what

13lbs off! Crazy right, well im glad, but not exsatic, propably because i want it all gone right now!

Im just realising im in this for the long haul and its going to take alot more than 13lbs to get back into a lovely feminine shape and feel good about myself. Plus notes my skin is getting better, im sleeping a but more.

Downers - my poo is a bit sludgey And Im terrible at getting water into me .
 
Ugh feel terrible , terrible headache and sooo tempted by my 9 year old birthday cake all last night while making it and all today while everyone else eat it :-(

Not feeling great today very stressed due to family. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. Again rubbish with my water
