It's funny I was also having similar thoughts about just doing WI from home, but to be honest I don't think I could do it myself. Really need that push that I get from going to the meetings. I went to another class just for this week and it was great to hear different advice from another consultant and actually see her before/after pics and hear about the transformations of other members. Think I needed that and plus the gain I saw on the scales helped me get back on track. Do try to keep that variation in the menus and try to make things that you like the SW friendly way and hopefully that should keep you on track. Also going out and buying something I would love to fit in for a special event or holiday seems to help.
Hope you do get your mojo back soon!

hey meli,
had a long chat with hubby and bored the pants off a mate late last night!
mojo is slowly returning....have set a few little plans and challenges in motion so got a bit of renewed interest and nasty thoughts going!
i wont bore you to death with everything but two main plans are to have a 3 course meal once every 10 days(to fit with hubby's days off as he does 6 on 4 off)...will give us a nice night together but will also mean we try a lot more things too as we tend to want to do more 'special' meals that way,plus it'll mean trying diff soups and deserts and things too.
the other one is to look up the distance from lands and to john o groats in km(thats what our ex bike works on) and cycle it! but to make it more interesting and less likely to give up we are making it a race!
got carrot and coriander soup bubbling away on hob,am looking through here for lil recipies and tips and printing or writing down,and tonight going through old mags too.

 

[Meli]

Look forward to hearing more about those 3 course meals and any new menus you come up with
Glad to hear the mojo is found and coming back ! Also read that you are in size 10/12's now- Well Done - those inches are definately coming off you!!! Good Luck for WI.
