Hi there new friends!
My name is Emily-Rose, I'm 27, I LOVE food, and I joined Slimming World about a month ago with a start weight of 12st 6lbs (Im a diddy lass at 4' 11") So far I have lost 5lbs, which seems like nothing when I go to group and hear how some people lose that in a week (!) but even starting my weight loss journey was such a huge step that I know each lb off is an achievement.
I've joined minimins for two reasons:
1) whenever I search for quark/scan bran/general recipe queries, minimins is always what pops up on Google first
2) This is all so blinking hard, and feels such an impopssible task. My weight gain is linked to so many factors - an ankle imjury that stopped my dance career, the onset of long term anxiety depression - and even accepting it was so difficult for me, so losing the weight is even harder. I know if I want my life back I must do it, but right now I could really do with some support and encouragement from some lovely people who are going through it and/or have come out the other side.
I hope you don't mind me spilling my guts out, but being honest with myself and others is the only way I think I can make this a change for life.
Looking forward to making some new friends,
ER xxx
