My Food Diary-Danni_87

[danni_87]

I joined SW on Monday evening and I started the actual diet on Tuesday. I weighed in at 11st 12.5lb...this is the heaviest I have ever been even after having my son 7 years ago. I have suffered with depression on and off for years but since August last year I've been alot better in myself and this is when my weight started to creep up. I went out with my friends on Saturday and saw the photos on Sunday this was what gave me the push I needed to do something about it. I've joined with my mum and sister and I'm really enjoying the plan so far.

I'm going to post my menus daily with an update of how I'm feeling what I've done for the day.

Thank you for looking

Hi Danielle
I'm new to slimming world too and just started a food diary, first day on plan was today and has gone well, we are going it alone so I hope you don't mind that I've subscribed to your diary, I love this forum for sharing ideas and supporting each other to stay on track for target.
It's quite often the photos that will give us the kick in the right direction, I hope you get to where you want to be.

Thank and yes it's fine I will go and have a look at yours too. It's my first WI today and I'm shocked at the fact I haven't felt hungry once and I haven't had to go without my favourite meals so that's a bonus. Good luck to yourself too

Anyway it's my first WI today at 5 I'm nervous but excited all at the same time, I honestly can't believe I'm going to loose weight with the amount I've had to eat but I'm guessing I will soon find out

 

[danni_87]

I'm really happy my 1st WI went amazingly I managed to loose 3.5lb this week!!! I'm looking forward to the week ahead. I planned my meals this afternoon only day I'm worried about is bank holiday Sunday as we are going out with friends so it will include a lot of drink and food. I think I will be able to make wise food choices but I'm dreading the drinking :/ oh well I'm sure I will manage
