I thought I'd introduce myself. I'm new here, and you seem to be the site for me! You all seem very friendly and encouraging and unafraid to give a necessary boot up the bum when needed!
So, after trying Weight Watchers for two weeks and tracking every last morsel that passed my lips, here I find myself, £30 lighter (online option) and 1lb heavier than before I started (!), I've swapped to Slimming World. Again, doing the online option, but quite excited that I can eat and lose weight!
I'm a veggie, so the idea of unlimited pasta, rice, eggs, quorn and potatoes really appeals to me - seeing as (i) they're my staples and (ii) I had to count them on the other diet! Started yesterday, and so far so good! Am not feeling hungry, and seem to be able to stick to the plan quite easily (which is confusing my head, as I think I should be feeling hungry and struggling in order to lose weight)!
My aim is to try to lose 3 stone by January 2012 - my 30th Birthday! I'm aiming to weigh what I weighed for my 21st.
I'm blaming my hubby for my weight gain! He's an ex-chef and cooks the most amazing food! So, have told him oil is banned unless it's fry-light! And also that I'm comfortable and happy in the relationship, so I've let myself go - oops (only to the latter bit - I like being happy)!
Hope you're all achieving what you want, and hopefully I'll be chatting to you on here!
