My path to a healthier and happier me!

Cheekypasterfield

Rather comfy here
Morning everyone,

I'm no stranger to Minimins or SW but I'm not a great success :( but this time it's going to be different.

I did have a previous thread running but I really don't want to revive it, it's full of ghosts of my failings and I've decided I'm on a fresh start so I should have a nice new fresh thread :) :) :)

A little bit about me

I'm 32, a wife and mummy of 2 daughters (5 and 3) I work part time and have the luck to be off Thursday and Friday.

I did SW with success when I was pregnant with my youngest (I only gained 1 stone). I quickly lost my baby weight and then focused on losing an extra 2 stone weight I've always wanted off.

3 years down the line and I've lost, gained and lost 1 stone of my original target (this has been mostly with WW) but never reached the final goal.

The past year I've really bobbed between SW, WW and CC really not sticking to anything, not losing any weight but gaining more and more dislike towards myself and feeling like a complete failure.

Last night in the bath (always a good place for contemplation lol) i decided enough was enough. Yes my goal is to lose 1 stone but what's the most important thing for me is to be healthy and happy.

I know SW can give mean all three, I just need to apply myself and embrace the plan. This I know will give me my happiness and healthy lifestyle I desperately want but I'm just hoping I get the weight loss results too :)

I'm going to try and mix my week with the 3 plans so I don't get bored and I'm weighing in on Thursday as this is my weigh in.

I am apprehensive starting and sticking with the plan but just got to take it one day at a time :)

I hope I haven't bored you lol and thank you for reading xx

Off to plan Day 1

Evening all.

Well today I went off plan but for a very good reason...... my husband got a job which wasn't meant to happen (someone else was lined up for the job)

Needless to say we went out to celebrate. I haven't got a clue on syns but here is my day

Dinner - TGI Fri Veggie Fajita (3 x wraps) and 1/2 Garlic Bread

Snacks - 2 x Rose Wine ( total 425mls)
Blueberry Muffin
1 x Ripple

I've tried to stay in control. I did have the muffin to soak up the alcohol lol

I'm not fretting it was worth it and back on plan tomorrow xc
 
That's very pretty.

It does hurt but different amounts in different locations.

Most of the peacock will hurt as it will be on the ankle bone (that was the most painful)

The top of my foot and above ankle hardly hurt. I think you might find the toes hurt and the heel.

If it was me I'd do the tattoo over 2 sessions. You'll find it intense.

Personally I found it was like hot scratches with a little teeth clenching lol

Also you'll need to plan a schedule cos you're not going to be wearing shoes for quite a while especially as your shoe will cover the tat.

You'll also going to needs time to rest your foot.

Touch wood I've been lucky my foot has reacted well and cos I wanted my all my tattoo on display my shoes and flip flops don't cover it so I can wear shoes immediately

Even with all the above still worth it lol
