Slimming World weigh in #59 – the one where I’m back on it…

weekly weigh in

After last week’s weigh in and yet another maintain but managing that photo of the “fat jeans”, I was feeling a bit more determined and in the zone. I did a little more meal planning last week and I was on it for most of the week; we did have a meal out one evening and I did go for a healthier option, but I couldn’t resist cake… Oops. I ate a lot of speed fruit & veg though, started a food diary again, and stayed mostly within my syns so I think that really helped. I must have been back in …

…Or I’m not so sure. After my last weigh in I was really gutted that I’d gained yet another pound, and I was slowly slipping back under and losing that 3st loss – I was almost back into the 2st area and it was that which really gave me the kick up the butt that I needed. We did have a meal out at Pizza Hut planned for Jacob’s birthday but I planned to stay on it as much as possible for the rest of the week, which I just about managed. I think once you have slipped off plan for a few …
