Jennie's Slimming & Running Diary

[jenniecakes]

Hello AGAIN! I'm back, and lots has happened since I last posted in these forums.
I have become a Slimming World Consultant.
I have run a Marathon.
I have put a deposit on my first house.
I have managed to start saving money.
I have put weight on.
Yes, so not too many woo's for that last one, but everything has been busy busy busy for the past 12 months, but I'm feeling back on it and ready to get back to plan and strict with myself. I've let myself go a little in the respect that I am no where near as strict as I need to be, and I really could do with being back at Target in 8 weeks time ready for my jolly holidays.

Plan.
Rejoin a group. My friend from work is due to get married in the summer too, so I have a friend to go along to group with and I've promised myself that I will and I can lose a stone by my holidays.
Run! and gym. I need to tighten it all up again and I do love running and it really de-stresses me, so it's totally worth doing.

More later! But really looking forward to spending some time looking through everyone's diaries later.

Brilliant! So I officially rejoined a Slimming World group last night.

HEy hun your food sounds so yummy. xxxx

 

[jenniecakes]

So! Weekends are a little tough for me to get on here to post due to having my own group to run on a Saturday morning which basically takes up the majority of my saturday.
Weigh - in tonight... First one! And I'm pretty scared, it doesn't feel like I've lost a single bean! Feeling super bloated too.

 

[jules1981]

Good luck hun xxxxx

Fabulous! -2lbs this week at Weigh-in which at first I was disappointed with, however! It has been my first full week in such a long time where I have kept control, and even though it wasn't the amount I wanted it was a loss. Plan moving forward is just to stay in control and try to get 6 weeks of losses now before holiday.

Last night I started the 30 day shred and tonight as well as the shred I'm going to get out running deep down, I have missed running, its just stressful finding time to fit everything in as well as relax. But, I've promised myself tonight is the night.

I've also made some Scan bran muffins last night to have today and then a few as syns over the next couple of days. I figured the extra fibre will always help, and it's encouraging me to take on lots more water too. So far in the past 2 days I've had 25.5 syns, so I've got 4.5 syns in the bag already and still 5 days left on plan until weigh-in.
