Before and After (With lots of pictures)

[ClareyCakes]

Hi everyone.
I have always wanted to be able to do one of these threads, and now the time has come I am terrified!!
I've always been a yo-yo dieter, flitting around doing random diets, I lost a few stone with Weight Watchers but nothing really stuck. Then last year I suddenly had a lightbulb moment, I decided to take control of my life and I joined a Slimming World group. I don't regret it one bit, I lost 8lb in my very first week and that feeling spurred me on week after week to keep going, 14 months later in Nov 2015 I hit my target weight, losing 4.5 stone, SW taught me how to listen to my body, the kinds of food I should be eating and changed my whole relationship with binge eating. I am now directing my focus on my fitness and body, and i'm feeling great!
So pictures... These are off my blog

I am a big fan of social media for my support network and if anyone would like to connect with me my links are in my signature

Remember; When you have a tough day, don't quit, embrace your feelings then draw a line and stay on track.
Loves xx

Clareycakes, no need to be terrified, you look absolutely amazing! What a difference, you must be so proud of yourself. Thanks a lot for posting, you are truly an inspiration to others. SW is a great plan and I hope that some time this year I will be able to post before and after pictures myself (still have a long way to go ).

Well done you

Thank you both.
You can definitely do it Moon Gazer, the key is to believe in yourself, any diet plan or change of lifestyle will work and how well is dependent on how much you put into it and want it, I wish I had learned that myself earlier but it's my go to advice now. You can do it xx
