Hi all

Joined Slimming World on the 2nd February and I must say...what a brill diet! Ive always done weightwatchers...and yes it does work, but I often went to bed hungry and I never saw it as 'life changing' like I do with slimming world.
I totally agree with the quote in the handbook 'THE 7 DAYS THAT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE FOREVER'!

Anyway, I lost 4lbs in my first week, wahoooo :D but then gained 1.5lbs in my second week much to my disappointment :confused:
