Claireyfairey's EE SW Diary - 21lbs to lose :)

[claireyfairey]

Been following SW for a few weeks now but I haven't been giving my all...after a particularly bad weekend I have decided to keep this diary to try and get me back on track! I have given up smoking as of today (using an e-cig) and have challenged myself to go without alcohol until my holiday on 22nd July

Stats are:

Start weight (my scales): 10st 11lb
Goal weight: 9st 7lbs
Height: 5"5

I aim to do the 30 Day Shred DVD as soon as I can afford it and feel up to it....it is funny week for me just now So when I feel more up to it, I will begin, and aim to do it at least 4 times a week - I have minimal fitness, so don;t want to overdo it too badly

Anyway, look forward to getting to know you all

Hi Claire

You seem to have had the same idea as me - making a diary to keep us on track! Fingers crossed it will work

Noticed that you want to start doing the 30DS but money is an object - fear not, I had the same problem but managed to find all three levels on YouTube!!

Good luck with your SW journey & I look forward to reading through your daily diaries

Helen xx

Slight edits fancied the beer - stressful day, but still not touched the ciggies

Well done on staying away from the cigarettes Claire! I've never been a smoker myself but my OH was doing slimming world with me when he was trying to quit around 2 years ago, and that made the dieting an even harder battle for him as there wasn't the comfort food around when he had those cravings.

Keep up the hard work!!

Well.....I may have some vodka this evening with my friend....but not much. I know I said I was going to go alcohol free, but I must admit I look forward to it of a weekend! I suppose if I just keep it to strictly once a week (as opposed to several, which I'm ashamed to admit I was doing) then hopefully that won't be too bad?? My friend's a smoker so am charging my e-cigarette so it's fully charged and hopefully I won't be tempted to touch the dreaded cancer sticks. I must be strong!!!
