Newbie!!

Hi all!

Well, I'm on my second day of slimming world and loving it!
I have battled with my weight since I was 11 or 12, but managed to lose a couple of stone thanks to a breast reduction and cutting out carbs for a while. Although the boobies are still small, I literally have not had the will power to give up my bread and pasta full time and have gained 7lbs this year....not much you may say, but I can feel this to be a long and slippery slope if I don't nip it in the bud!!
I have used sw before, but gave up within two weeks due to a weight gain....looking back, I was having way to many crafty vodka and cokes and on green days eating a WHOLE bag of couscous!! No wonder!!
I'm following extra easy this time around, with my other half doing it with me!
Hes got around 2.5 stone to lose, so a nice steady journey is ahead of us, hopefully!!
My main goals are to lose my 7lbs, but also finally ditch the other stone I couldn't shift on my first weight lose mission! So hopefully 21lbs by June, where we are at a wedding in Marrakech!

Look toward to hearing from you all and offering support where I can!
