I have dabbled with other diets in the past but was blown away by the menus in the slimming world magazine that I was browsing in the supermarket on Sunday - they're so "normal". I purchased it and shared it with my husband who I have sold the idea to. A quick sign up process got me access to the world of slimming!
So here we are, day 4. We have managed to keep each other on track although I do keep getting emails from dominoes (which is tempting!) and my love for chocolate has been distracted...for now.
We have tried some of the recipes from the magazine and website but they are becoming same-y already. I suppose it is becoming familiar with what I can and shouldn't eat and just being experimental. Am I really allowed that double burger with bacon from the website?! I must be more adventurous and embrace the "naughty" foods that other diets would frown upon!
As an example, we are eating a lot of tomato based dishes, peppers and pasta. Tonight I am delving into chips. Chips - on a diet - its a brave new world!
And so the adventure continues...
