So as you may have read, last week’s weigh in didn’t go well.  I had put 2lbs on and this week just gone wasn’t exactly brilliant either but I got my act together in the last few days and at my weigh-in last night I found that I had done better than the maintain I was hoping for and had actually lost 2.5lbs! so I lost the 2 that I put on AND an extra half pound and I am def going for 1.5lbs off this week to reach my 1st mini goal.

I feel like a new person at the mo tbh lol, so much more on track and ready to freaking DO THIS lol.

Thanks to all of you who have supported me through the last few days and it just goes to show you, it is never too late to turn your week around!

My promise this week: stick to my points allowance every single day and do at least 3 work out sessions.

Speak to you guys soon x

What a couple of weeks!  It was my birthday last thursday so for some stupid reason I thought it would be fine to let myself eat pretty much what I wanted to in the week leading up to it - so that I gained 2lbs on my weigh in on thurs instead of losing 2 to reach my mini goal - and for a few days afterwards. 

Fortunately I seem to have sorted it out and yesterday went well and today is going fine too.  I am just gonna face the scales on thurs and see what the situation is and go from there.  You know what you’d think that saying RIGHT I am going to lose some weight would mean you just did it but it is so damn hard to change habits of a lifetime.  I am so used to just eating whatever I want that is unbelievably hard to just get on with it.

I am of course not going to give up but I have to say my latest struggles have definitely brought my whole mood down.  I want to feel GREAT about myself, happy and confident in ALL aspects of my life.  and I just can’t see that happening until I start seeing some success again.  When I saw that I had put 2lbs on I almost cried right there in the middle of the hall.  Problem was me and my mum had walked to the weigh in which took about 40mins so I knew I had that back so I managed to keep it in. 

I weighed myself yesterday morning and it looks like I have put a bit of weight on (can never really tell with those scales) but I don’t know if I can take it AGAIN, it doesn’t help that my mum is standing there aswell and I feel like it upsets her too basically my aim for the next few days is to make sensible food choices, keep my sweet treats limited, get some exercise in, and pull off a maintain at thursday’s weigh in.

I’d forgotten how useful buddyslim is while I was being a bit neglectful.  It is kinda like therapy for me to get these feelings out that have been bothering me all week!

Sorry for being a bit of a useless buddy these past couple of weeks, but I intend to stick this out, witness your success and report back on mine! x

Yay, so last night was the 1st weigh in at weight watchers since joining the week before and I lost 4lbs! wooooo! I’m, so happy with that.  Last week I said I would aim for a 3lb loss, and I was kinda hoping to lose the 3.5lbs that I put on in the few weeks between leaving slimming world and starting weight watchers but now I have lost an extra half pound than even my secret wish loss lol.  My mum lost 4.5lbs so we are both feeling pretty good about ourselves and this diet plan!

So it is my birthday next thursday, the night of the weigh in, and my aim is to have reached my first mini goal by then.  So it is 2lbs I am going for this week and I think that is a VERY achievable goal considering how well I did this week and the fact that I should be aiming for it to drop to 1-2lb loss per week.

I am so happy will be GREAT to have that first stone (14lbs) off, and as I said last time but this time truly mean and am determined about haha, I WILL NEVER BE IN THE 16STONE (16 stone = 224lbs) REGION EVER AGAIN wooooo!

Love you guys x

Hey guys, so I joined weight watchers on thursday and I have to say I am actually really enjoying it!  It is so well suited to me - it is a similar idea to slimming world BUT much more flexible and my meal choices.  PLUS there are so many weight watchers products around that there is a whole new yummy experience facing you every day lol.

So friday went great, so well in fact that I actually kinda thought I had cheated from how many treats I had.  They were within my point allowance BUT I do think I should start using the points I use outside of meals on fruit.  I am thinking maybe 4 points a day max on my treats.

Saturday, hmmm, not terrible but when I worked out how many points I had gone over, well it was at least 16 eeek lol BUT I am just using the next days to have 4 points less to make up for it.  And the past couple of days have been fine.  I have a really positive feeling about this one.  It is teaching me to plan my day out better, have more exciting meals, look forward to my food, and handle the portion sizes.

I HEART WEIGHT WATCHERS lol.

So the plan now is to keep up with my 4 less points per day til thursday’s weigh in, and tomorrow, wednesday and thursday morning do a 30min workout to boost my potential loss this week and begin building up my activity levels.

I may skip the gym idea for a while with joining weight watchers cuz my mum has been paying for my membership.  But hopefully I will get sorted with a part time job soon, then I can sort out a gym membership and offer to pay for the weight watchers too.  But at the mo I have the treadmill I can use and my exercise DVDs so I think I have all I need at the mo, plus my mum has suggested we start walking together sometimes so that sounds good too

Hope you guys are feeling just as positive as me! I will check out the latest blogs now to spead the optimism lol.  Come on guys, let’s DO THIS!!! x
