I am starting slimming world plan today. My current weight is 65kg and I am a bit anxious that I may fail to achieve my target weight(54kg). I would like to achieve my goal by Christmas. Wish me luck!!!

sparkles37 said:Hi there. Just wanted to say welcome back and good luck. I recognized myself a bit in your post. I usually have similar thoughts when starting to lose weight, thinking that I can't possibly manage to lose what I've put on and find that it can be really counter productive. If I don't have a good weekly weight loss or if I don't reach my target by the date I've set myself, I end up feeling like a failure and turning to comfort eating. So now, while I still have a goal, I'm trying to focus on the fact that with each lb I lose I'm on the right road to getting to target so even if I don't reach target by the time I'd like, I will still be able to look back at what I have achieved in that time! Have you set any mini-goals to keep you motivated along the way? Lots of people seem to find posting what they're eating at the start/end of the day helps to keep them motivated too (I've just started mine so too early for me to tell!). Anyway, best of luck with your weight loss!![]()
sparkles37 said:No problem. Looks like we have kind of similar start and goal weights (not great with working out kg). Have you seen the thread about 100 days to Christmas? I just spotted it yesterday and I think it's great! They're noting how many days between now and Christmas that they stick to the plan 100%. I saw a suggestion on it too to print out a sheet with the number of days to Christmas and tick them off if you're 100%, which I'm going to do tomorrow (I think I'm going to color the box green if I stick to plan or red if not). I'm hoping it will be good to have something to focus on as well as the scales!
How did you find today?
