From fat and frumpy to yummy mummy!!

Hi Everyone.

I'm back on slimming world after trying lots of other diets and just playing at it really.
I now mean business....my husband walked out on me and my 4 children 2 months ago today and it has been the biggest wake up call ever.

I weigh 15st 6lbs and at 5ft2 and a half have about 5 1/2 to 6 stones to lose.

This is about me for the first time in 12 years. I am not losing weight because i've had a baby, or because i want to look attractive for my husband. I am doing this because I deserve to look on the outside how i feel on the inside.

Its my first day back on slimming world. i'm not new to the diet. I did it a few years ago but I am a bit rusty so any help you can give me would be much appreciated.

Today i've had:
Breakfast...muller light yoghurt, banana

Lunch...rice and vegetables

Snacks... 2 satsumas.

not sure what is for dinner yet. Think it'll be pasta with bacon and tomato.

Then it'll be a hot chocolate and a couple of biscuits before bed.

I cant wait for this fat to disappear!!!!!

Good for you starting again and doing it for YOU! I hope it all goes well for you.

I've only been doing SW for a few weeks now and it's my first time so I'm not sure I can offer you anything you don't already know! But I feel the same way as you in the sense that this time I mean business. I've half-heartedly attempted losing weight a few times over the last 4 or 5 years but just never stuck to it for longer than a few days. This time, something has really taken hold of me and its been almost a month now and I'm still going strong!

Good luck for your first week!

Am back on track today after a rubbish day yesterday. I didnt really over eat but didnt eat the right things and had far too much bread.
Have had a terrible time with the soon to be ex over the weekend and feel emotionally drained now.
Sometimes i dont feel strong enough to do this at the moment but i know if i keep making excuses i'll be really annoyed in 6 months time. I cant imagine dating anyone being the size i am, my self confidence is at an all time low and iknow i need to do this to make myself feel better about myself.
So today I have had:

Breakfast: fruit
Lunch: low fat cheese babybel. crackers. yoghurt. fruit
Dinner: chicken, mashed potato, carrots, gravy.

Off to read some diaries now for some inspiration and a bit of a pick me up. xx

Well i've struggled this past few days. I havent been bad but i havent been 100% either. I have eaten far too much bread as comfort food so have learnt a lesson from that. i need to stop buying it!!!
I have started exercising though, have done 20 minutes a day for the past couple of days. Am definitely keeping this up as i feel so much better for it.
So onweards and upwards. Its weigh day tomorrow so we'll see what happens. I am aiming for a good week next week with NO bread!! LOL
