I've decided to join in and try and keep a weight loss diary in an attempt (no...negative self-defeating language already...) as a WAY of helping me carry on with the SW plan.
I've reached an all time high for me, and I feel pretty rubbish about it so I'd like to lose about a stone to get back to where I comfortably bob about, and when I reach that point, carry on until I get somewhere I feel fantastic to be....probably about another stone after that.
Doesn't sound much? Maybe not to you dedicated folk who have this incredible willpower and discipline to continue week after week even when the scales are mean to you, knowing you'll get there in the end, but for me if I don't lose half a stone in a week then I'm a failure, the diet's a failure and my jeans and my scales cease to become inanimate objects and become my mortal enemies. Bit pathetic no?
So, new leaf. I want to get pregnant with my second child, and I want to feel great when I turn 30 (next month) and a crash diet based on bacon and processed cheese won't help with that at all. Slimming World, with its fantastic eating plan will.
So I'm going to blog a little about it, not loads because I don't do much on a day to day basis, and I'm no chef so my menu plans won't make interesting reading, but if I keep this up, and on the weeks when I've tried really hard and the scales don't show a loss - if just one of you out there could refer me back to this post, and help me to break the destructive habits which have dominated the last 15 years of my life....it will have been worth it.
On another note, am considering weighing myself in just kilograms.... they mean absolutely nothing to me and don't carry the connotations that stones and pounds do for me.... just a thought.
Wish me luck.....no, better than that...wish me willpower!!
