Hi my names Claire, I'm 39 very happily married and have a wonderful 15 year old son. My weight loss journey spans many years!! This time however for the first time ever I am successfully losing weight with Slim and Save but following our return from holiday my husband and i have not been enjoying the plan at all.
Historically I would have thrown in the towel, binged for a few weeks then switched to something else but after spending a week chatting, getting some valued advice (you know who you are
) we decided today's the day!!
Why today? Well coming from S & S I've had a down day today - 3 packs and 406/421 cals consumed. I have a business lunch tomorrow so can officially have my UP day and eat "normally" ......but best of all it's my 7th wedding anniversary on Sunday which will be our UP day so can enjoy a lovely meal together.
My hubbie followed S&S with me and were both really happy with the results but for numerous reasons it's not right for us now, can't say would never do it again but at this stage we know we need to move on. He was never keen on WW or SW due to tracking etc so 3 S&S packs on down days followed by Up day for him is ideal - I will be tracking our up days on MFP and we pretty much eat the same so shouldn't be a problem for him.
I know I will probably face a gain this week due to the switch from vlcd to this but this will balance out and then can fully start my Juddd journey, the thing I am most looking forward to is cooking and eating a meal at my dining room table again with my family after enjoying meals out every night on holiday I've so so missed that!!
Roll on UP tomorrow.
Looking forward to catching up with all you fellow Juddder's
