Getting Married 26 October!

[LeleQ1987]

Ok, so back on the band-wagon I go!


Wedding date is fast approaching & I have about 30lb to lose. I do already have my dress but got a size smaller & have already discussed if it needs any alterations etc

So, Slimming World seems to be going great so far. Finding it a lot easier than the last time I tried it. Getting to remember syn values etc & have got a lot of tips & recipes off friends & family.

Power walking with my sister & our dogs twice a day & getting to the gym/swimmers when I can get my DS minded.

I'm looking forward to continuing this journey with you all

good luck! you were clever getting the dress a size smaller, i bought my wedding dress for october fitting perfectly. so it may need taking in a bit by the wedding.

Hi Natalia!

It's my main motivation to lose the weight! When I am finding a day tough, I just think of my dress

hey there - i am an October bride too - with a too small wedding dress and i want to lose about 2 stone as well.

Fancy a support buddy? xxx

Hi Staceystace!

i had the implanon after having my son & I ballooned up something shocking! From then & with an unhealthy diet/lifestyle, I have struggled with my weight.

Good luck with the Tesco diet & with your weight loss journey

Very excited - my invite proofs and samples have arrived! now its real cos we are inviting people wooooo! I bet everyone else has already done invites i seem to be behind! haha! xxx

 

[LeleQ1987]

WOOOOOOOO!
So, 16lb down and counting!!!!

Haven't found this 1st month too bad, just keep looking at the photo of my dress!!!
Cannot wait until my big day now I'm feeling more determined than ever. I feel myself questioning myself now if I really want something. Saying to myself "do you want this more than your wedding dress fitting you perfectly?" sounds crazy? but it works!

 

[LeleQ1987]

Today I have woken in the greatest of moods! I'm more determined than ever!
Just sitting in work this morning talking with a collegue about how a few little changes have made so much of a difference to my daily life.
I drink a hell of a lot more water than I had before, I'm making healthier choices when it comes to food & I feel sooooo good for it.
I have so much more energy lately and I'm getting out there rather than making the same old lazy excuses that I did before /)

Another good thing to come out of this is my fantastic relationship with my sister. As my chief bridemaid & fellow Slimming World follower, she has been great support. We power walk together, walk the dogs together & have even recently jogged together! Something I thought I'd never be doing.
We always have been close, but this has just made us even closer.

I feel this is the start of a brand new Lele
