I have recently started a diet and I thought I would share my journey with the world by blogging. Not only that if I put it down in words I am more likely to stick at it and remember where i went wrong. My starting weight was 17st 6 and half lb. I am 5'9 and after having 3 kids my body is no longer what it used to be. I am a size 20 and generally a fatty. I joined slimming world on the 26th of January. At first it was slightly confusing and to be honest I couldn't really grasp what I was and wasn't meant to be eating and how much syns were and all sorts of new dieting stuff. I have never tried to diet properly before so it was all new for me. I was eager to get going and for the best part of the week I didn't eat much as I had my nose stuck in the SW book.
Monday I didn't really have a clue so I pretty much just ate what I thought would be ok. Tuesday I was a superstar and stuck to the rules and was very well behaved. Same went for Wednesday. On Wednesday afternoon I had a lovely long phone call from my group leader who set a few things straight for me and gave me a few hints and tips. Rest of Wednesday went great. Thursday I sort of broke a few rules, well I lost it again really and ended up eating a few things I shouldn't have. I did well on Friday and Saturday but Sunday U was a pig! I had a huge Sunday lunch with lots of gravy, and 2 Yorkshire puddings. I had a ice cream for pudding and then later in the day I ate a bowl of cereal. I did use sweetener though (bit of a contradiciton that, like ordering a diet coke with a KFC Bucket!)
This week I went to SW and confessed my sins before stepping on the scales and even though I had been cheating and weight guessing i had still lost 2lb. I was impressed with this but i desperately want to be slightly skinner by the end of the month. So my aim for next week is 3lb.
I have also been trying to boost my weight loss by jiggling my wobbly bits on the Wii fit. I find its better than excercising because I dont have to drag my behind out in the cold and if I look a prat its only me my hubby and the kids who laugh.
It is now Tuesday and wow have i f*cked up already! Yesterday i went over my 15 syn a day allowance by about 7-8 and today i was in town, completely forgot myself and gobbled down a sausage roll from Greggs the bakers! OMG! Never again. I checked the syn value online and WOW 28 and half syns! I am buggered for the rest of the week now! Well i have been on my best after finding that out and i have been syn free all day. I am hoping that i can leave today and yesterday behind me and carry on as i should. I am finding it so hard to say no to the crisps in the cupboard or to not take that trip to the shop for a chocolate bar.
Oh well tomorrow is another day!
