Well it may only be 1 pound but that’s 3 stone so far with LL and 4 stone since the beginning of the year, only 2 more to go and I am there-where I will be staying!
Slightly concerned re management as one of the girls is currently doing it and she has struggled with the lack of clarity on instructions on amounts etc.
I am bored now of the same old packs but I keep telling myself that the end is w...

So post being away I still managed to loose –feeling great, one of girls in group got to target and we are all staying strong, a little bit bored but on target-thank God for mousse mix!

Well ladies and Gents post a very bad 2 wks of emotional head stuff and lapsing I am back on track, happy with the 2 lbs last night and really happy that I am over half way now feels easier somehow..We got our photos last night was I really that fat? ! I AM NEVER GOING BACK THERE...

4lbs off very happy with that news....we were measured last night and the difference was amazing really spurred me on. I was aware that I had shrunk because of my clothes but to see the amount is startling! Bring on another week of abstinence and if I really exercise every day maybe 13 something next week.....I am over half way and know that I can get the results I want by sticking to it-we chatte...

I caved last night and lapsed with some cheese! I have decided that in class they talk about trigger foods and that puts them in my head and then off I go-not blaming others my “adult” decision to lapse...knew I was doing it, talked to myself the whole way through the event. I had had a CRAP day at work , and I mean really bad I had written my resignation letter, got home my son was being seri...

So having to deal with a not great loss, 2lbs is not going to get me to where I want to be anytime soon! Bit disappointed last night but have turned it around today and have dressed up for the office and to feel better and it is working, my lapse last week has only showed me how it easy it is so slow this process down! So hard core this week! Gym at every opportunity and serious walking at the wee...

Had a bad day yesterday, my son was ill and I found out some bad news financially all in all crap day, I managed to stress eat a Babybel light! Walked to the fridge on numerous occasions and had to keep sternly talking to myself, it is amazing how bad habits are so ingrained..on the negative side am obviously going to have to watch stressful situations on the positive side at least I recognise it ...

We were down to 4 at WI last night! Three of the group popped in earlier as they had other commitments but it was really good, so pleased that I have lost 2 stone.Did the parent, adult, child thing last night and have come to the decision that this week I really do have to face up to my MASSIVE denial issues. It took me a long time to face up to the fact that I was fat and that just another glass ...

Have decided if I can make it through this last weekend on the programme I am def going to finish where I want to be, prepared 2 BBQ’s this weekend and stayed in abstance (bar one slice of ham) on both days..BIG pat on the back I am currently giving myself! I am now overweight NOT obese (well according to the charts) so feel that I just need to continue to the next level which is normal healthy...

So excited I am prancing around in a pair of jeans that before LL I could not do up! The added bonus is that there is only an inch of muffin top-which can easily be hidden in a floaty top as the sun is out to play.
Feeling extremely happy en route walking to work today got several appreciative glances and one good morning gorgeous –that’s been a while....shallow I know but at least I am being ...

Well FINALLY I have seen 14 something on the scales this morning. WI tonight and I did have a sneaky weigh on Sunday and was gutted to discover that I was still 15 something only just 15.05 but still!!!!X(, the mental boost of seeing 14 something is fab, just a shame that WI is at 8pm this eve so I will still officially be in the 15’s till next wk! I knew that I would have to slow down eventuall...

Can’t believe it my sore throat is back, feel really unwell again! Just as well I decided not to go to Monaco... Having trouble dealing with illness and LL. Not tempted to actually lapse physically but for some reason in my head all I want is comfort, and as I used to get that from food so that’s where my head is!
I really do need to stop associating food with moods, be it happy, sad, lonely e...

Third of the way through the foundation programme and I feel fantastic, I am also a third of my way to target so to get to where I want to be am going to seriously up the exercise as I have been a bit remise the last few weeks , just need to plan my time better. Love the quality of sleep I get on LL have not slept so well in years. Just need to harness the extra energy into the gym....

Put first ...

Well WI was last night and I feel great lost another 6 lbs so that is 1 stone 8lbs all gone never to be seen again....Have cancelled going away this weekend for several reasons mainly because I DO NOT want to come off abstinence as the results are so evident and therefore seriously motivating! I also am not entirely sure that 4 days away with the OH at the moment is such a good idea! Group last ni...

Am feeling like absolute pants, hence not blogging for a few days weigh in last night was fab we all had good losses, so happy that first stone gone, really need to set some small goals as the LLC wanted us to read them out in class, so will ponder in my sick bed and come up with some-which naturally I will share with you all also…..

Sat here feeling as if I have tonsillitis coming on , my son has just had it so I suppose it is only normal for me to catch it! Got the most horrendous taste in my mouth, would normally make a tom yum soup to kill of the germs, don’t think a LL soup will have quite the same effect! As that is my only option it will have to do. Won’t be exercising though, beginning to feel a temp coming on, W...

Well sorry for my rant yesterday, I did go for a walk and cool down so that was good, it is very interesting when one scratches the surface of the crutches we use in our lives, food, wine, weight etc. This process is very liberating; I had forgotten the clarity of thought that comes with being in control of my eating.

Looking forward to the long weekend, I am doing the Race for life on Sat (only t...

GOD, I am having a really bad day in the office today, I am being undermined and I have really really had enough, I am worth so much more than this and I am hoping that once the weight is off and my confidence is back at full pelt then I will go out and turn my whole life/work balance around.

I am steaming mad would usually call a friend and go for a quick glass of wine and rant at lunchtime but ...

Well week one is finished and I am very happy with my weight lose yesterday, I like the group that we have it is really open and free, great for sharing, which reading most of what you guys have written on here is an important part of the process. We all lost good amounts which was brill.
We met with some other LL girls who are on their 10ish week and all of them have lost a min of 3 stone which i...

Yippee weigh in tonight I am soooo excited can’t wait to see the others and to find out how well I have done, I have been beyond religious this week and have walked every day, back to the gym tomorrow can’t wait.

OH still away and won’t be seeing him till the w/end I am hoping that he really notices a difference as I am beginning to, my skin looks amazing a real natural glow....am feeling v...

My son had me up in the middle of the night twice so I am the walking dead this morning, finding that my energy levels are really low as I have had about 3 hours sleep! I am sure that if I was not on LL they would be much worse. This is the normal time to reach for the quick fix food to see me though the day but I will not be doing that ....
Really looking forward to tomorrow night , it will be goo...

So day five well underway, think that my house is going to be spotless if I continue to clean like this but it does the trick and takes my mind off food. I am beginning to notice the difference already with my lovely Mummy tum, it's def smaller-yippee!!!
I was going to take my son out today to a country game fair but the weather is pants, if it clears up later maybe we might still go…just need t...

Well it is day 4 and it’s the weekend ! This should be interesting as normally I bake and cook, my house is the drop in for friends and family so I have just cleaned out my cupboard instead! No baking/cooking today ,I am sure that once I am a couple of weeks down the line I can resume but if not it’s only 3 months out of the rest of my life so….

OH is with his kids this weekend up north so at...

\:DWell after my forgetfulness yesterday morning when I dashed home picked up two extra sachets sp that I will never be in the office again without something. Spent the morning drinking copious amounts of H2O and earl grey tea, so therefore the rest of the time tiddling !!
Actually feel fine, strike that I feel great, no headaches, moods or anything, this is not the first time I have been on food ...

So day one down and done, I feel fine but have mucked up big time and forgot my shakes, so peppermint tea/black coffee/H2O for me this morning until I can race back and pick them up from home....
Worst time yesterday was my son’s teatime as normally would pour a large glass of wine and pick whist preparing evening meal, but put a large pic of me slimmer on the fridge and have started my goal boa...

Comments

So the story started last night and what was great was that the people in my group seemed to be singing exactly the same song as me...so that is a bonus as we will be going on a journey of discovery together....
Was gutted when I got on the scales to discover that this time last year I weighed EXACTLY the same, so one year of slimming world on and off has left me in the same place....BUT not for mu...

Just come off the phone from one of my oldest and dearest friends to find out that she has lost a whopping 4 stone in 11 wks on LL. Have therefore decided that post 3 months of dieting with SW am going to join the LL world. I have contacted my local counciller and will let you know the outcome. I have two goal dates one is the Grand Prix in Monaco wher I refuse to be the fatest person there and th...
