After much faffing about, Ive taken the bull by the horns and have signed up to a new SW class. Im feeling very positive about it and a little competitive cos Ive joined with a colleague who has loads to lose too. Im gonna be posting my food diaries here.
Welcome to the forum and the best of luck with SW - i love it, no need to be hungry just fill up on free food.
Yes, nothing like a bit of competition to keep you motivated. Kitteh (Cat) is having an Easter Challenge for us Slimming Worlders so why not join us (see Challenges forum).
Look forward to reading your food diaries as i'm always looking for ideas. Just tucking into big bowl of homemade vegetable soup with half a tin of Tesco green lentils in it (free on green day) with a wholemeal roll (HEB).
I started 4 weeks ago with a friend, a bit of competition is a great motivator! She has lost 1lb more than me so i'm really upping the stakes now LOL. I've given up alcohol for lent (I love my lager) and I reckon that will really help. I'm not a great lover of fruit but I've tried a few different things apple with cinnamon, oranges with yogurt and frozen strawberry desert. They are lovely and I don't feel like i'm depriving myself. Looking forward to seeing your food diaries as I'm alwasy after inspiration.
Thanks for the lovely replies. Seems like im in good company here.
Saturdays food;
Breakfast -4 fat free sausages & 1/2 galia melon.
Lunch- Home made meatballs in tomato sauce.
Snacks- while at the cinema 5 nectarines, 1 tangerine and 1/2 kg of grapes ( yes i got a belly ache)
Dinner- 3 egg omlette with beansprouts, onion, pepper and cherry tomatoes.
Used my HEA for milk in tea.
Not the most inspired of menu's but I certainly wasnt hungry.
Thanks Lacey, been a good week. I get weighed tomorrow so hoping for a good loss otherwise ill be hankering after returning to CD once more. Its good to see that you are fighting the fight again too.
