Hi everyone,
I have been doing slimming world since the summer of last year and managed to lose 1 stone 8 lbs reaching my original target. I was really pleased and was finding it relatively easy to stick to. However in September I came back for my 2nd year Uni and gradually started to slip back into my old routine. I managed (luckily) to only gain 5lbs between then and now, however i am struggling. I rejoined Slimming world a couple of weeks ago and I have lost 4lbs in total. I know that the average weightloss is about 2lbs per week but i know i can do better as i frequently stray off the plan.
My difficulty is in the evening when my friends and boyfriend can all nip down the shop and buy chocolate, sweets and crisps and I feel deprived ( and very moody haha!) if i don't buy some too. Its usually a family size bag aswel! And then being a typical student i often get tempted into takeaways with friends whilst we watch a film. I also get the typical eye roll from the guys of 'oh god another girl on a diet'. Does anyone have any suggestions of how to curb this habit as I know it would make me really unhappy if i gained the weight i have worked hard to lose. I also want to reach my new target which means i have another stone and a half to go and i know i am shooting myself in the foot a bit by not having enough discipline.
Any support and advice would be very much appreciated.
