My Slim-Fast Diary: Losing 2 Stone

[WhiskersOnKittens]

Hey Everyone,

My Slim-Fast journey has began today!!

I am 25 years old, 5''6 and 12st 2lbs - Which makes me over weight. I have a 13 month old son, and my weight has been up and down the past few years. I have lost weight previously over the years without trying, new jobs, stages in life i lost weight without thinking. Now i am a stay at home mummy and my bf works long hours it has been so easy to over eat and eat all the wrong things.

I am hoping to get down in to the 10 stone mark, i want my BMI to be healthy and i want to feel better about myself. I have never been too focused on scale readings and diets so this is all new to me. I am hoping to just feel good about myself, and when we go away in November i want to wear a bikini in the pool and feel good

Hi! Thanks for popping by my diary. I just wanted to wish you good luck.

Your food diary so far looks really good. And how delicious are those slim fast pretzels?! I love them!

I'm the mother of a little boy too. He's 18 months. And currently climbing all over me!

Hey Vesta,

Yeah I am really enjoying the snacks that slim fast do, they are yummy! Have you tried the chocolate bars?

Aww, my little guy has just turned 14 months and poorly at the moment with a virus poor little man breaking my heart at the moment xxx

 

[xVestaX]

Aww bless him. It's awful when they're sick. I hope he feels better soon.
I haven't tried the chocolate bars. Are that good?

 

[WhiskersOnKittens]

Yeah he's perking up a little now thank goodness!

Yeah they are if you have a sweet tooth, the caramel one is lovely sort of like a mars bar! They are 5 for £2 in tesco at the moment so are a bargain too!

My first battle is under way... Bf wants KFC for dinner.. He works normally on a Sunday so wanted to have treat. I have the calories to have some but feel like ill fail if I do

 

[tink2011]

I have it just stick in the calories and why not better that then waiting a few months and eating one of everything ha ha

 

[WhiskersOnKittens]

Yeah I had half a chips, 2 chicken strips and a couple of chicken popcorn and made myself a salad so feeling very full and not so guilty. Am slightly over 1200 calories but I worked out this morning xx
