So this is the first diary and first attempt at slimming world for me, first attempt at any proper diet actually, that's not to say I haven't needed to diet before just lacked motivation.....which you will soon discover is an ongoing issue!
I am hoping by starting this diary it will help me stay focused and motivated and actually make me lose the weight! I don't have huge amounts to lose and people ask why am I on a diet but you know when you get the feeling within yourself that you don't look right and are not comfortable.....well that's me right now so I am making the changes.
A little about me, I am pushing towards mid thirties :sigh: sounds depressing when I say that! have a stressful, professional job which takes up lots of my time and is predominantly office based so I lead quite a sedentary life, this will be my biggest challenge to change that.
I started slimming world 5 weeks ago and just reached my half stone last week WI so pretty chuffed with that, it is coming off slowly but surely and I don't mind that. I go to group and really enjoy it, I go with my friend who has lost over 4 stone in 5 months and she has done amazing and looks fab!
I am going to use this as sort of food diary as well as definitely can't keep track of 2 diaries lol and feel free to chime in, apparently my biggest problem is not eating enough according to group but I am one of those annoying people who is very fussy with food so trying to experiment and up my intake using the books and this wonderful site with lots of helpful ideas.
I am also trying to do my body magic and this will be my nemesis as after a hard days work I just lack any sense of motivation to get out there and do some exercise. Diary you will be my confessional and I am hoping by making myself write it down I will then get out and do it!
Think that's enough for now, will try to check back once a day and Good Luck to everyone else on your journey!
