Hi everyone,
I thought it would be a good idea for me to start a weight-loss diary, just to keep track on my progress, and to look back at for inspiration if I'm having a tough time at some point.
I'm 27, with 2 kids (2.5 years and 6 months), and over the past 5 years I've gained about 5 stones. I started slimming world at a wobbly 16st 2lbs, and have so far lost 9lbs in 3 weeks (3lbs, 3.5lbs and 2.5lbs), which has been a great start and a really good motivator to keep going. The last 2 weeks have included a couple of social events which have kept me from being as good as I would have like to have been, but I'm pleased to say I've managed to save up my sins for these occasions, and they haven't appeared to halt my weight-loss. This week I have nothing in my way, so intend to stick to the plan 100%, and I'm hoping for a good loss on Monday.
I joined the gym a couple of months ago (before starting slimming world), and was having big success health-wise, but ZERO success weight-wise. I'm embarrassed to say I haven't been for about a month, but intend to change that tonight. I think I'm going to ease myself in gently and just do 30 mins on the bike or something. But I want to start going at least 3 times a week, so fingers crossed I'll have the willpower!
I think that's about all for now! I did want to ask if it's ok to just use this area as a personal diary, and not add my food diary to it?
