Hey Minimins :) New girl, kind of following SW

[clairdelunex]

Hey everyone

I finally decided it was time to join, I've lurked a few times when googling some things, and all the advice & support on offer seems too good to miss!

My partner and myself have brought the Slimming World literature off eBay and a cookbook, we're giving it a go and chances are we will become fully fledged members of SW - for the time being we just want to give it a try, and and also to shy to go to group meetings! Haha.

I've always been on the larger side, I was at my largest when I was around 15/16 (size 24) and I've slimmed down (with LOTS of ups and downs, haha) to size 16/18. I've now decided enough is enough and I'm going to get down to a healthy BMI and more importantly, my ideal weight!

I'd hope to make lots of new friends who suffer the same perils as myself - shyness, and an addiction to food* haha!

(*I've only just discovered SW, and considering you can 'eat as much free food as you like' hopefully, I'll be seeing results!)

Thanks all for reading xx

Thanks everyone for replies I'm very excited to try a healthy eating plan as opposed to a diet which I can't stick to!
