Ever since I started SW I've been umming and ahhing about whether I'd be better off doing a vlcd instead. I'm impatient and want to see faster results than I am doing! But then I look at it the other way and know that I couldn't live on a starvation diet (which is essentially what a vlcd is) and I love eating too much (plus I'm worried about saggy skin!). SW does allow me to eat pretty much whatever I want to and I know that at the end of the day that is important to me.
June was really slow for me had 1 week of STS and before weigh in last night I'd lost a grand total of 3lbs in 4 weeks and was all set to either STS or have put on and was planning to go home and just eat anything. Somehow though the scales said I lost 2lbs! In the end I did eat loads but it was within reason and worked out it was only a few syns worth! So although I feel it was slow and looking ahead I should reach my mini target of having lost 3 stone by october I know that I'm doing it by eating what I'd usually eat anyway.
This week coming is going to be haaaard - 2 meals out this weekend and I'll be astonished if I can manage to STS but going to try and be as good as possible.
Anyway, this is a new start. I'm going to try and keep a food diary & most importantly actually update it!! Wish me luck
