So, hey! I’m Rachael, I’m 30 and a newlywed, I've always been over weight and tried several diets, many times before, slimming world is the one I come back to time and time again. I started 3 weeks ago, 2 of my friends where complaining about their weight (even though there about 8 stone lighter than me!) so the three of us started a competition, instead of buying each other Christmas presents we would put the money in a pot and the person who lost the most of weight would win the money, it was there idea and I kinda thought oh why not. Well 3 weeks late, I’ve lost just over a stone, one of my friends has lost 2 pounds and one has put 3 pounds on. When we started we were chatting daily about what we had eaten/what exercise we had done... exercise is like a swear word to me! I really enjoyed it but now they have both seems to have got bored and I could really do with the support!
Joining SW this time for unknown reasons feels different, I feel so committed and sure about it this time. Previous times dieting has felt like a chore, but I’m really enjoying this, enjoying cooking for me and my husband (who is being as supportive as a husband can me, but after all he is only a man!) we are trying new recipes and loving it.
I'm sure this is different and this time I can finally shift the weight, but I kinda need to let it out at times when it’s going good and other times when I’m struggling. Hence why I am starting this, whether people read it or not I don’t know BUT I'm gunna give it a try! So if you are reading and do want the same support then please say hi!
