Hello Everyone.....

This is going to be blog and diary of my road to the skinny me as from tomorrow.

As i am typing i am enjoying my very large glass of rose and the last of the box of chocolates from xmas.

Tomorrow it is motivated Tinks.

This will be the first time i've attempted SW, but i have heard good stories and inspirational comments from it.

Plus reading some of your diaries and comments, you all seem lovely and might i add make some scrummy meals...will be taking some of those lol. :rolleyes:

So tomorrow morning i will be dragging my ass on the scales for the first time in forever, and getting this body of mine FAB!

I will be following SW at home. As i havnt got the confidence to go to a class, and cannot really afford the online fee. As i will be signing up for the gym and going zumba. Need to use my trainers for something lol.

I will be posting my food diary as from tomorrow. Please feel free to comment and send advise i will very much appreiacte it.

Welcome to slimming world, you'll love it!!! People are shocked at the amount of food I eat (my portions are huge and I do like to snack) and that I still loose weight every week. It's defo the best diet out there, esp as there are so many free (or nearly free) quick foods like the pasta and sauces.

Good luck and our diary I looking good xx

Hi Tinks

You're doing great, love your posts.

EE is fairly new as you already know you can only have 1 of each HEx but the benefit is you can have unlimited free food at the same time eg huge baked tattie & huge steak but you are supposed to have 1/3rd superfree at the same time eg 1/3rd salad or mushrooms etc.

I was used to green & original too and it has taken me a while to get into EE but I like it.

Have a great weekend.:D
