Happe days are here again

[Happe]

Hi, Im Lisa a longstanding member of minis. Ive been overweight (well fat) all of my 49 years and Ive tried every diet known to man. They all work until I stop doing them and I end up fatter than ever. This time, this time I have to finish the job.
Im 50 in January and have booked a holiday in the Dominican Republic with my man to celebrate. There are so many things from my bucket list that I can do there but not at this size. So on 15 July I rejoined Slimming World in a new class with a brand new consultant. She is fabulous and for the first time in years I really feel like I can do this.
Im doing great so far:

Starting weight 20st 6lbs
week 1 -15lbs 19st 5lbs
week 2 sts
week 3 -5lbs 19st
week 4 -5.5lbs 18st 8.5lbs
week 5 -6lbs 18st 2.5lbs

Hi Rae, I stick to red days mainly because my body loves carbs and keeps hold of the stodge forever. Im eating loads of fruit (overdosed on plums the other day, not pleasant lol) loads of veg and tons of lean meat and fish. I use my hea for milk I drink lots of tea so use both for milk and my heb for weetabix or branflakes and sometimes a hifi bar in the evening. I think my job is really helping too, Im a home shopper for asda and walk around 9 miles every shift. 33 hours of bodymagic a week lol hell I should be skinny already.

Thank you Rae.
Lost 2.5lbs this week which i know is great but after my huge losses of previous weeks i cant help feeling very, very slightly disapointed with. Stupid yes i know lol.

 

[Happe]

Forgot to add i did get slimmer of the week and slimmer of the month so buzzing really:bliss: lol

Lost 2lbs this week, gaining me my 2.5 stone award. Very happy with that. Thid is actually hhe lightest that Alan has known me. I know im smaller because of my clothes but I dont feel it, strange how our brains take a little time to catch up.
I am quite pleased with myself too, I rode my bike all the way to wirk and back, not bad considering I havent been on a bike in 100 years. I really want to start some kind of exercise so have been looking at classes. I need to do something low impact because of my heel, quite fancy kettle bells the results are supposed to be amazing.

I am now down 3st 1.5lbs. Im doing it!!!. Went out to Romford dogs last night in a new dress and felt fab. I even got chatted up lol. Shame not one of our party commented on my loss which the photos tell me definitely shows. Still i am not doing this for them, this is for me so I can ride that horse along the beach in January x
