    My journey to a 32" waist and a girlfriend...

    Well, i joined this site yesterday, having joined Slimming World on 4th January 2010. My targets are there on the left, I am wanting to lose 88 pounds, and end the year attached!!! My kids have kept me busy, but as they grow up (I am 38 now), i find there is more time for me and i want to make better use of it!!

    So far, 3 weeks in, i have got off to a very good start, having lost 17.5 pounds, so i now have 70.5 pounds left to go. I have "prepaid" 12 weeks at SW, to motivate me to go all the time, and i have joined a gym (and prepaid for 12 months) to help me along a bit.

    Will endeavour to keep this updated as i go along, with tales of food, drinks, and maybe even dates.....

    Week 2 = -4 pounds
    Week 3 = -3.5 pounds

    Just arrived in office, gym on the way in this morning, so i can barely type!! Good day food wise yesterday - and slept really well (might be that the exercise is wearing me out as well.) Just want to shift this weight as quickly as i can - i get like this sometimes, perhaps a little too focussed for my own good.

    It's good that you're throwing yourself into it head first at the deep end, things can only get better from there

    Gym every day this week so far, its now Friday morning, and i am going to try to go at lunchtime - at least i am in less pain in the morning!!!

    I am finding the food part easier, just eating a fairly balanced set of meals. Cereal and coffee in the morning, fruit or a sushi box at lunchtime, and then a bog standard meal at night - beef casserole and a baked spud, brocolli and carrots last night for example.

    It has helped me to cut a few things out entirely, just because i am not sure i could manage to "only" have a bit... These are crisps, bread and cheese.

    All good so far though x

    Hi SingleDad

    Excellent results so far - keep up the good work.

    The gym every morning is hard, but after a while im sure it will become an energy rush you need or you just wont feel right for the day... lunchtime too works !!

    Well done again...

    hey, seems someone else has the same method as me, prepay the gym then you have to go (but i haven't been since wed as i'm down with a chest infection and can barely talk let alone jog cycle or my fave, swim)

    i also stock up on my meal replacement packs as motivation to keep going!

    good luck on your journey!!!

    I think Pre-paying is the best motivation for me - i have shelled out £350 or thereabouts, so i have to get the use out of it now. It doesnt come out of a family budget or anything, it is me and the kids, so i have to account for it properly. Hard to explain what i mean, errrr it isnt money that should be buying the wife flowers - cos there isnt a wife anyway.

    oh anyway... i know what i mean!!!

    Went again at lunchtime, actually managed to run (as opposed to run and walk) a mile. Puffed afterwards though..
