18 Months away...

[abigail09]

So as you can probably see I used to be a very regular poster here. I lost weight on slimming world in 2008 and 2009 and felt and looked great. I've recently just finished working as a tour guide abroad for 18 months, drinking every day, eating out every night and I arrived home this morning at 11 stone 8 (9 stone 7 was my target which I reached), the biggest I have ever been! I actually don't feel huge but I have 3 weeks before I move to Australia and need to get off as much weight as possible and just generally get healthy. Not sure whether I should rejoin as I spend a lot of time away and only have 3 weeks before I move away permanently or to just do it alone.

I'm not sure whether I feel like I'm just back at square 1 or whether I should just be accepting that travelling takes this toll on everyone and actually it's not as big as it could have been and look at it that way... Anyway, 3 week challenge! I would really like to be back in the 10's!!! Possible?

Totally doable!!! Are you actually emigrating or just working in Australia. Whichever you can always still come on here for support

And so you've put some weight on but you know you can get it off and what a fab time you must have had

I'm moving on a working holiday visa so it only give me 1 year on that with the possibility to apply for others, so as permanently as I can get! Morning went off to a good start with a 30 min work out

Welcome back! Yes it's do-able so go for it. It might be a good idea to join a group as then at least you will have the most up-to-date books and information that you can always take away with you to continue with the plan after you move. You would have access to the website so could amass all the online info to take with you and stock up on books and hi-fi bars if you like them

Good luck!
