Thread: From streaky bacon to lean rasher!

Soooo tomorrow is the big day. Day 1 of WW. I've been on and off with Slimming World since April last year after giving birth to my handsome little dude in February. I have 3 sprats and life is somewhat hectic so I'm hoping the flexibilty WW can offer will help me shift my porky behind!

If anyone can see me pointing things incorrectly or has any tips/advice in general I would be more than happy and very grateful if you could let me know, pretty please

First official weigh in will be put up tomorrow morning, no doubt through sobs of digust

Best of luck hun!

I think you are probably right to change, whatever works at the end of the day Will keep an eye on you here in the Dark-side if that's ok?

Good luck numnum!

I too have migrated to the dark side!

Day 1 was today.... Gone well I think! xx

Good luck for your first WW day xxxx

Thank you all lovely people! So the hefty weight in was 164.6lbs (11st10(and a half) ) How depressing considering I had managed to get into the 10's a few months ago. Hey ho, noone to blame but myself! This time I WILL get into the 9's

Tried the chocolate philly today and it was fan-bloody-tastic! I had it spread on a digestive and it was 100 times better than your average chocolate digestive. 1 was enough to cure my chocolate craving.

chocolate philly??? i need this in my life! Your food diary looks very yummy

I spied it in Tesco yesterday so had to get some. It is very very good! Not cheesey in the slightest just yummy chocolate-ness in a tub!!

NUM NUM Must get myself some

Good luck with WW, food so far sounds lovely
That choc philly, has been on my list for a few weeks, i have a superstore tesco, and still none on sale in there!

il have no chance of the choc philly being in my tesco as its tiny Il have a nosey around morrisons next time im in as its sounds lovely x

I am actually surprised at how good it is. You know how normal philly has a kind of thickich fluffy texture? Well this is smooOOooth! It would be fab as a lower fat option of icing on cupcakes! ... I feel a baking spree coming on in preparation of the boys 1st birthday

Well now it's my eldest littleys turn to be poorly Poor wee lamb chop just isn't herself. SHe's all pasty and floppy and has a temp of 38.8. About to give her a luke warm bath, put her in some jims jams with a dose of calpol and cuddle up on the sofa with some cartoons.

The boy child took 4 steps!!!!!

I think I can officially say that the boy child is walking !!!! A week and a half before his first birthday *sniff*. After the 4 steps he was adamant he was going to get the hang of it and kept trying and trying and managed to walk half the length of the lounge. Clever little monkey. Now everytime he wants to get somewhere he'll try to walk first, then if he falls he'll just crawl the rest of the way. He gets himself so excited that he giggles and claps and makes himself fall

Going to my mumsys in a little bit for a cup of tea and a natter, then off to deliver some customer orders and finally away to pick up the little dude's birthday present (a climbing frame). Where I'm going to put it until next week I know not!
