Hi everyone. So let me tell you a little bit about me. I'm Sam. I'm 36 and a serial dieter.
I did slimming world about 8 years ago and lost about 3 stone for a holiday. Went on the holiday stopped dieting and piled the pounds back on...had no real motivation to lose weight so dithered about for a few years before starting weight watchers in 2012. In a year I lost all my weight and in March 2013 I got to my goal weight and celebrated by eating....Lots!
I have tried since to lose weight but not really done more than maintain or put on and I'm now back at 13 st 10. Still less than the 16 stone I started at but if I don't do something soon it won't be long before I'm there.
So I have tried ww new plan and hate it so I'm coming back to the dark side to help me lose this weight.
Last time I did slimming world it was mainly green and red days. I can't afford classes for a few weeks but I'm eager to start so here I am.
Day 1 was today. Please help me if I'm going wrong but I'm learning from the magazine, cook books and the Internet.
So breakfast was fruit salad, lunch was a prawn salad sandwich on brown bread (heb?) And dinner will be spaghetti bolognese with 5% mince. Hea is skimmed milk.
I have had lots of fruit and I will be having some greek yoghurt, banana and a teaspoon of honey later (1?) And I have had a biscuit moment (5?)
Does that sound a good day? Do red and green days still exist or is it all extra easy nowadays?
Tomorrow I'm planning the following:
Weetabix for breakfast (heb)
Lunch tuna pasta salad
Dinner pork loin steak and vegetables or jacket potato and baked beans
