The daily ramblings of a Care Bear!

[Care Bear xxx]

Hello lovely ladies and gentlebears!

So im back on the old Slimming World band wagon (Yay!!!) so though it was about time that I started keeping a little food diary and a blog all in the same place!

I started off my SW journey at 18st 11lbs and have managed to get down to 12st 9, but still need to shift a fair few extra lbs - so after a break, a change of diet (Weight Watchers - blurgh! although i did manage to shift a couple of stone, it still wasnt nearly as satifying as SW and found i was eating junk food just cos the points system allows you to!) I am back on SW and have forgotten how fab it really is! I want to lose another 23lbs so watch this space!!! I do the Original/Green days as I cant seem to get my head around EE! I havent gone back to group yet, but Im up to date with it and Ill be joining a new group next week - so any support you guys can give me with synny stuff til then would be REALLY REALLY appreciated and would award you with a million virtual hugs! xxxx

I have to try and stay on track this weekend - Im off to Cornwall tommorow for a weekend with the OH - the temptation of freshly made steak and stilton pasties is upon me! nooooooooooooooo!!!!!! Ill be good though - i need to shift this poundage by xmas!!!!
It doesnt help that its also * week and I feel bloated and manky! but im not going to be discouraged, I know that the plan works and its just water weight etc thats making me feel that way! Im trying not to weight myself everyday but its like a habbit! 3lbs came off since sunday (awesome) but then 1lbs gone back on this morning! I know weight fluctuates daily but it can be a little discouraging! so im getting my OH to hide the scales from me!!!!
Cant wait to get back to group next week - I love weigh ins, its like im having a little competition with myself!! and I miss my books!!!!!! (if youve ever seen hocus pocus the film, im like winnie and her book!!!
