Hello, I'm new to Minimins and this seemed like the best place to start!
Last year I lost 4st on Slimming World, reaching my target in March. I immediately stopped going to meetings as I always found them difficult (I have bipolar/social anxiety which makes anything like that difficult!) and although for the first few months I maintained my weight really well over the past couple I've started piling it back on again.
Christmas was the final straw and having jumped on the scales once it was all over (I'd been avoiding them all through the holidays) found that I'm now 1st heavier than I was when I reached target less than a year ago.
So I'm back to it now trying to shift that stone solo because I dread the thought of going back to SW meetings and having lost my main source of income (I'm a freelance writer and have lost a lot of work since the economy went to pot) I could do without paying to be weighed! I know I can do it but with a sedantry home job and medication that has weight gain as a primary side effect it's going to be hard.
Wish me luck
