The jeans fit! Kind of… lol

So my new approach of taking each day as it comes and making fresh aims  every day started today and it has been INCREDIBLE.  It has really kept me focused and made me realise each day counts towards the weight loss.  I got into a habit of thinking how many “good” days I had per week and how many “bad” days - that ain’t gonna be my mindframe anymore! 

My aims  for today were to: stick to my syn limit, get a 30min walk in when shopping and to try on a UK size 18 (US size 14) jeans to see how close I am to getting back outta my size 20s.

I managed them all :) I had like 1 extra syn than I thought (I planned 14 but had 15) but I am allowed 15 so I still see that as completing an aim lol, I stayed in town for about an hour so think I have got at least 40mins walking outta that really (I decided not to do a continuous 30min walk cuz the town centre isn’t that huge really and I thought I may start getting some funny looks, also the price of parking has gone up SCANDALOUS lol so I wanted to get home asap really). Anyways I made sure I left a few extra mins at the end to try on a pair of jeans and they fit, well I mean the button fastened and the zip came all the way up. I wouldn’t buy them at this stage cuz it seemed to push my belly up and out haha so that wouldn’t be the best look but I can’t wait to get back into them.

For a while I kinda refused to accept I was a size 20 cuz I just never thought I would let myself get into the 20s but I was FORCED to accept it when I was stepping outta the house one day in my snug size 18s and managed to split them up the thigh.  That was a baaaaad day lol, just 1 of the factors leading up to me joining slimming world.

Anyways I will back in the 18s in no time and never again will I put myself in that kinda situation.

I did good today :) I will also do good tomorrow lol

My aims for tomorrow then: do 30mins exercise either on the treadmill or a dvd if my dad goes out in the morning, stick to my new idea of having “breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner, snack” and leaving it there instead of having multiples, annnnd trying the new kit kat senses bar as a well deserved treat (which don’t worry is within my syn allowance lol) I will buy it before I go and pick up my friend when we go to the cinema - that way I will also avoid all then synarrifc treats there.

See you guys tomorrow then x

    Sounds like you have a great plan. You should have bought those jeans and tried them on once a week. You will be in them in no time! Keep it up.
