Hello everyone,
I thought I would pop by and introduce myself. I started on Slim Fast last Sunday after trying many diets and not really being successful. I did okay with Slimming World (2.5 stone), but I don't have the time to do so much food planning; I found I was thinking about food all the time!
I've got quite a bit to lose and I'm well on my way. Since last Sunday I've lost 11lbs (weigh in this morning).
I'm doing the 3-2-1 plan (I'm not sure if there are other plans?) and really enjoying it. I've had a few hurdles as I had already committed myself to two social events last week - one dinner and one lunch, but I worked it into the plan and it seemed to work well.
My fitness pal is keeping me going - I have it on my iPhone and I've synched it online, I think that might be the main thing to be keeping me going to be honest, I'm getting a little obsessed with logging my food diary. I've also started exercising and I'm doing 20 minutes per day on the exercise bike - I also have some wii games to try out (Zumba) and a fitness ball, etc for when I get fed up with the bike.
So there we have it, it's nice to be here - please say hello if you want to.
p.s. My favourite shakes are raspberry crush and latte (yum!) - I was seriously surprised at how tasty they all are to be honest - and the chocolate caramel snack bar is nicer than any chocolate bar in my opinion.
