Hello everyone!
So this is my .... um... 5th attempt at losing weight with Slimming World but i'm determined it will be my last. My 40th birthday is looming (December 2013) and I want to look fabulous again and not be frumpy at 40.
I started back at Slimming World class a couple of weeks ago and i'm so far very happy with the way it's going. I'm vegetarian but i am following the extra easy plan (basically Green days but with only 1 HEXA and HEXB, and i'm ensuring i have 1/3 plate superfree)
I've had a great 2 weeks food optimising but have only just plucked up courage to start posting on here and sharing my highs and lows with the plan.
It's a weird time to start on the food diary as the past couple of days have been a bit - ahem - interesting. Yesterday was my wedding anniversary (8yrs!) and husband bless him bought me some lovely flowers....but also a lovely chocolate cupcake! Which i ate. And tried desperately to pretend that i really *didn't* eat the 4 finger kit kat at lunch time too....
Tonight I am off to Frankie and Benny's with my friend for our usual monthly meal/gossip/cinema visit. I am going to make good choices though. I'm going to have the Pasta Arrabiata with a side salad (dressing on the side). And i'm taking grapes to munch on in the cinema.
So ramble over....i'll let you know how I get on and i will start posting my daily food diary from tomorrow x
