Hi All
Just coming to the end of day 1 on the Slimming World plan - and I'm absolutely determined to stick to it, so this seems a good area of the forum to post. I've had 3 'huge' wake up calls in the last couple of weeks:
1. Needed an extension belt on a recent flight
2. Saw the absolutely horrendous holiday pics (I appear to have lost my eyes when I smile, and it's difficult to establish where any other bits of me end and other bits begin - just all melds into one big lump !)
3. Met an ex colleague for the first time in about 8 years who literally said 'Oh My God - you've doubled in size' (not particularly diplomatic or empathetic but probably just what I needed.....)
So this is it - slimming club is in the church 50 yards away and weighed in last night at 18st. Hoping to get to 10 or under which obviously seems like a mammoth task, but a journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step and all that good stuff.
Some absolutely inspirational stories on here and clearly lots of support (which is a good thing as I think I'll need it !!)
Good luck to all for tomorrow
Popeye
