Baby steps loosing the weight slowly with SW

[jules1981]

I just keep yo-yoing with my weight loosing the same 1 and a half stone then gaining again. So time to give SW a proper try.

I cant afford the classed but have the books and info and with minimes hope I am going in the right direction.

I am on a high dose of antidepressant and unfortunately back on a mood stabilizer that has helped me gain 5 stone in 9 months, but being on them is better than off them right now.

I have a 20 month old son and a hubby that will eat anything-bar salmon, so looking forward to making lots of healthy meals.

Any advice welcome as feel its going to take some getting my head round this agin.

I aws 22 stone at the end of july, today I am 21.6 I have a LONG LONG LONG wayyyyyy to go.....

Hi Jules. I'm new myself so hopefully we can help each other. I started two weeks ago and seem to be doing mainly green days as I perfer pasta, potatoes etc. I lost 4lbs the first week but only one this week, so I'm hoping I'm doing it correct, as many say I can't believe that I will lose weight eating so many carbs but I'll see how I go this week. I'm also doing it from home so really counting on this forum to tell me if I am going wrong

I've started a diary on here, so would appreciate it if you could subscribe to that and we can try to keep an eye on each others and hopefully both be success ful http ://www.minimins.com/slimming-world-food-diaries/329666-3-months-till-skiing-hope-its-not-slippery-slope-im.html

I am so tired today slept rubbish and had weird dreams! Will update food later

 

[Roscky]

Jules, could it be too much chocolate causing the weird dreams? Come on girl, you can do it, reduce the syns tomorrow and you will be fine, just think, no chocolate today and you will soon make up for the 20 yesterday x

Hi Hun well done on getting to the gym, that's great!

I tend to save mine for the weekend otherwise I would find it too restrictive, officially you're not supposed to but I guess it's what works for you xx
