Hello! So after reading through other people's diaries I am full of inspiration to start my own.
I am a bit of a serial 'Slimming Worlder'. I had a terrible habit of doing really well, then having a bad day, which turns into two, which turns into a bad week. So I don't go to group that week thinking I will 'get it off by next week' but...guess what? I never do. By the time the next week rolls round I have still not got back on the wagon so I never go back to group. A few weeks later, I'm joining a different group. I can't tell you how many times I have done this in the past. However, last year I was doing great, I had lost over two stone and was going great guns...then, the most wonderful thing happened...I FINALLY fell pregnant after over eight years of trying. Unfortunately I got extremely sick and could keep hardly anything down, let alone continue with my Slimming World plan. I also developed gestational diabetes and had to follow a plan given to me by my doctor, so again, I stopped going to my group. My beautiful daughter arrived in December 2012 and now I am ready to give it another go! I started again at the end of May 2013, and this time I have found the most wonderful consultant who I really want to stick with. Since May, I have lost 7.5lbs. Now, I know that's great, but I want bigger losses! Making a diary on here will hopefully give me some accountability, keep me on track and get me the losses I want. I have quite a lot of weight to lose, so 2- 3lbs a week is not unreasonable. I know I can do it, as I have had losses like this previously.
So, my aim is, stick to plan, fit in some body magic, and get good losses. I am still on maternity leave until the end of September, I have about ten weeks until I go back to work. I would love to get my two stone award by then, so that's 20.5lbs to go. A smidge over 2lbs per week!? DOABLE!
Thanks for reading, looking forward to getting to know you all!
