Oh God.. New and needing reassurance.

Only recently started slimming world and compared to the other diets its definitley the most generous. My biggest downfall was earlier I ate almost half a cheesecake that I made of the website (OMG!) Feeling terrible =/

Okay you've had a blip BUT just think of how much worse it would have been if you'd eaten half a shop bought cheesecake! Call it a flexible syn day, draw a line under it and move on. You can do it!

AH sod it you will have to just draw a line through today and start from scratch tomorrow, read your book, write everything down and join our exercise challenge that may keep you more focused.
Take care

Aww, you guys are all so sweet. I'm determined now. Taaa! X

Find a SW member who DOESN'T have the odd naughty extra! If you take it all too seriously then you are more likely to blow out and eat a WHOLE cheesecake! I make a point of treating myself once or twice a week so that I don't feel like the plan is restricting me too much.

The way I look at it, this has to be for life now not just a short term solution til the weight is gone. In order to make that as easy as possible it needs to feel like I'm not on a diet at all which is the beauty of food optimising, it's practical, easy and life-friendly.

When you get used to the plan and all the Syn values of different foods you will relax into it a little more.

Good luck with it x
