I've decided to start one of these diaries as I've really lost the motivation to keep going at the moment. I'm still the biggest advert for Slimming World, but recently I've been struggling to even want to keep on plan.
So I thought if I started a diary where I could put down my thoughts and feelings and have people comment then I might be able to rekindle my initial excitement for SW!
I'm 11 weeks into my journey and have lost 8lbs so far. I'm getting a bit fed up with my consultant always saying "Well, you don't have a lot to lose" when I only lose 0.5lb (my usual weekly loss). I know we're all different but it kills me to see people (who weigh a similar amount to me, by the way) losing 2 or 3lbs a week when I struggle to lose a poxy 1/2lb!
The last couple of weeks have been very up and down. I lost 2.5lbs 2 weeks ago, which was great and really surprising, but then put 1.5 of it back on again last week, so still averaging 1/2lb a week
Any tips for trying to lose more would be very helpful, my WI is tomorrow and I've been really slack this past week and weekend, so anything other than a gain would be a positive!
I just don't want this to fade away like so many diets before and for me to end up back where I was before, fat and unhappy.
So for anyone who managed to get this far, hi, give yourself a pat on the back and hope to goodness I don't just use it as a whine!
