Hello everyone,
I'm new here, as you can probably tell by the title of this thread.
I have been on probably every diet under the sun over the past 12-14 years, ever since I was about 17. All have failed me in the past, or rather, I have failed at them. The only one I have had any success in is Slimming World; the first time I was there I managed to lose a stone and a half, which is the most I've ever lost on any diet. I've gone back a couple of times after this, after putting all the weight back on again (no willpower!), and managed to lose the odd half stone here and there, but never anything I have managed to keep off. It's simple. I love food.
A few days ago I decided I was fed up with my ever-increasing wobbly bits, and so I decided to go back to my old faithful Slimming World group. So, yesterday, I signed up again, and was amazed how motivated I felt upon leaving the group afterwards. I had a fantastic day yesterday, felt committed and strong and able to resist the temptations. I even went to the hairdressers and got a new hairstyle!
Therefore, at the moment, I am feeling good, and I was so pleased when I stumbled across this forum following a Google search for "Slimming World shift workers" - I was wondering whether you didn't have to pay for the weeks you were working or whether it was included in the 6-weeks holiday you were allowed per year. But anyway, I digress...
I am looking forward to getting to know the other members of this forum and sharing our successes and helping each other through the rougher patches.
