Just a quick post to say hi.
I came across slimming world from some friends, decided to have a go myself as I'm getting fatter and fatter by the day, which makes clothes shopping less fun as whatever I tried on, I didn't look good :cry:
Some dieting history about myself:
I've tried various diets before, when I did low-carb over a year or so and I went down from 11st 7 to just over 10st, however low carb really isn't sustainable, especially when I didn't see much impact I just couldn't make myself to give up rice and pasta and bread for life!
So I switched to herbalife in the month running up to my wedding hoping to lose abit more... that's low calorie for 2 meals, and for the third meal I could have a balanced meal. Did lose abit, but since my wedding, I haven't really been going on any diet, and as a result... I found out I now weigh 11st 10 when I weighed myself this morning....(and 11st 12.5 when I was weighed at my first ever slimming world weigh in session!)
Enough is enough... I'm now reading through the slimming world literature and hope to get down to 10 stone in the near future, or even 9 stone ultimately! (I'm 5"7 - being 11st 12.5 meant my BMI is over 26! I'd like to be around 22 if possible)
How's everyone finding slimming world? I can't wait to try out some new recipes!
