Hello all,
I'm new to the forum and this is my first post.
I decided to go on SW last week while visiting my parents. My Mom's been on it before and it worked and she's decided to lost some weight before her holiday. To be honest I'd never heard of Slimming World, well I had but I didn't know what it was all about. So she's lent me her old books so I could get some grasp of what Food Optimising is and since then it's been good going, apart from the very first few days as I went a bit mad at a free buffet for work, and didn't realise what syns everything would've been. Ooops.
So tonight I'm going to my first SW group meeting, I'm a bit scared as I don't know what to expect and I'm going on my own too. I just know that it'll be better for me as the prospect of getting weighed every week will spur me on to keep going.
I've just taken some photos of myself (with the help of a tripod and remote control for the camera) with clothes on and with just underwear on. I was horrified to see myself in just my under wear with everything hanging out, as I usually suck my belly right in. I look pregnant when I don't
I didn't weigh myself for the first time until Friday night (day 5) and was pleased to see I'm 7lbs less than I thought I was going to be. I also weighed myself last night (day 8) and not sure if my scales are dodgy but I'd lost 4lbs?! Not sure if this is possible in 3 days though. SO having a proper weigh in tonight will be better. I aim to lose around 3-3.5 stones.
I will post again after the meeting tonight, wish me luck!
