Hi fellow slimmers!
I'm Kipper and im due to start slimming world AGAIN tomorrow evening!!! This will be the 4th time I have joint slimming world, and im so embarrassed by that fact that Im actually joining a SW club further away from my house as I do not want to see the three previous consultants a im ashamed of myself! Im sure they would be lovely, but just for me i need a fresh start, new consultant!
The funny thing is i started slimming world about 5 years ago when I was nearly 3 stone lighter than i am now!!! I look back and think "I DID NOT NEED TO GO SLIMMING WORLD!" but in all honesty i have struggled with my weight for most of my life, i am a huge emotional eater and i binge eat A LOT - so i know that not only the diet i need to sort out, but my psychological state of mind when it comes to food - something which will be a working progress i think...!!
I'm a student midwife now, and I feel very patronising talkling to women about a healthy diet when I am very overweight myself! So this is a big thing for me, to become a do-er not a talker! Also, my dad has diabetes and as i carry the majority of my weight around my waist (which has always really annoyed me!) i do not want to get diabetes myself!
Anyway a few credentials to get me started:-
Start weight - 15 stone 9lb (may change depending on weigh in tomorrow!)
Starting BMI: 30.55 (just into the 'obese' category)
Target weight:- 12 stone 10lb
Target BMI: 24.82 (into the 'healthy' range)
Plan: - to lose 1-2lb a week and get to my target weight by January 2013
Wish me luck!!!!!!
