Slimming World – weigh in #5

As you may have seen in my last weigh in update, I finally got my half stone award after four weigh ins. I was absolutely ecstatic as I think over the many years and attempts of trying to lose weight, that is the best I have ever done. I am really loving Slimming World (though I have had my doubts about it before, but that’s a whole other post) and hoping I can continue with it up until I get to my target weight, and afterwards of course as really it is just about making healthier choices. So, to my …

Slimming World weigh in number two

If you read about my first week with Slimming World then you’ll know that I had a fairly good loss of 3.5lbs which I was over the moon with. This week I was hoping to lose another 3.5lbs in order to get my half stone award. I think after a good loss in my first week I was a little more relaxed and not so strict, and I think it impacted me a bit so I’m right back to strict now. The thing I am worst with is picking at the kids food – so crumbs, leftovers, stealing a morsel …

Slimming World – my first week and weigh in

As you might have read, I joined Slimming World last week. I was excited yet a little bit nervous as I’ve always weighed in the privacy of my own home before and had a quick hop on the scales during the week!

When I started looking through my pack, I must admit I found it a little bit overwhelming and didn’t know where to start! I decided on writing …

My Slimming World journey begins

Earlier in the week I wrote about hoping to join a Slimming World group but my anxiety was holding me back – I only went and did it! I was really anxious in the days leading up to going but I eventually found myself a real life partner instead of just online support. When it came to going, I was more nervous about walking there and being mugged or kidnapped or something on the way! (I don’t live in the greatest neighbourhood). There’s the anxiety again for you. Anyway, once I arrived at the location it is held at, I …

Weight loss – week 7

I’m a bit late this week as I’ve had a lot on and only just remembered to write this post. I still weighed in on Monday though so I’m good to go with sharing my weigh in result. Last week wasn’t as bad as it could have been eating wise, but then it could have been better too. I’m still not back on track with logging my food which is the thing that’s really letting me down. I don’t think I so much ate the wrong things last week, just maybe a little too much of the good things. I …
