How has SW changed you?

[LisaC]

Apart from the usual - being healthy/slimming down??

For me, its the way I view food, I used to be quite an emotional eater, forever eating (the wrong things) if I felt low but Im pleased to say considering I've had lots of things going on to deal with I've not once, in 6 months, comfort eaten just to feel better.

My self confidence is slowly returning (I have had none for year's now) - and that is all down to losing weight, so thanks to you all for your help and encouragement and to SW for the diet plans.

[LisaC]

I've started taking pride in my appearance again. I'm looking to update my image and be less dowdy.

 

[kitty~anne]

its made me cook more meals from scratch, when i did ww i replied more on ready meals as they are easy to pint, but looking at syn values of ready meals is scary far safer to cook from scratch

i also can feel my confidence slowly rtning, its a long slow process but i'm sure i'll get there in the end

I spend lots more Money because i try things on they fit and i just have to buy them as im sooo happy lol

also i plan my food more and ive learnt to cook

I am far more confident. I dont brood over things either like I used to if say for example someone upset me.
Im also enjoying my life more and realising that I CAN do things rather than thinking that I cant....looking forward to climbing Scafell Pike at the end of the month in training for the 3 Peaks Challenge (24 hours) next year!

I CAN WEAR KNEE HIGH BOOTS!!

For the first time last Christmas I got some knee high boots in the sale and they fitted like a glove. HUZZAHS!

Little things like that give me such a boost, people might think it's not a big deal but it totally is.

And... I got my lovely OH out of it. SW = love. FACT!

Whilst discussing what to have for celebratory tea with OH, he suggested curly fries and I actually shouted "noooooooooooooooooooooo!!!"

That's NEVER happened before ...

 

[Vixxster]

HAHAHAHAH! I asked my OH the other week if he wanted some 'real' homefries or something for a treat rather than having SW chips and he went NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MORE SW CHIPS PLEASE!

He loves em! Result!

 

[ilovelife]

I am better at being more controlled, positive and enjoyfood again without the hugh fear hanging over my head

 

[Leapfrog]

I soooooooooooo agree with so many of the comments above.
Self confidence :checkmark green:
Being able to choose clothes that fit rather than settle for the only thing in the shop that's big enough :checkmark green:
I still double check that the first pair of size 10 jeans wasn't just a flukey generous fit - which inevitably leads to buying more size 10 clothes!
More energy for long walks :checkmark green:

I stop eating when I'm full.
I smile quietly cos I know I have sexy bras and matching pants
I have started exercising.
I've taken an interest in clothes for the first time in years because I know what will fit.

Did I mention the sexy bras?

 

[byron]

i actually feel positive so to speak about eating( what i mean is now theirs no shame in it!! hope ya can understand what i mean........lol!!

 

[trinity_bleu]

HAHAHAHAH! I asked my OH the other week if he wanted some 'real' homefries or something for a treat rather than having SW chips and he went NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MORE SW CHIPS PLEASE!

He loves em! Result!

And I forgot to add he was asking me whilst i was at work, so I shouted "Noooooooooooooo!!!!" across the office !

Hi Guys

CONFIDANCE is the difference for me.

I have stopped automatically saying no to things and started saying yes.

I am so excited cause I am returning to doing something that I love because I now have the self belief that I can do it!!

As of the 23rd September 3.30 I will be teaching drama for the first time in about 20 years! I have written all my plans and I am really looking foward to it.

People have tried to persuade me to do this for 3 years but it was not until I had been doing sw for a while that I felt happy enough to stand up infront of people again.
