...well, i'm hoping to be! lol
I have re-joined Slimming World!! :D ...Well i suppose i never really left, i just took two weeks holiday then decided i was fed up of my 'old' group and needed a change of scenery and to see some new faces!
I first joined back in October 2010 for a whole load of reasons. I'm not going to go into how miserbale i was and all that depressing malarky lol and i'm not going to reveal how much i weighed either (just yet!) :s ...however i WAS as size 18!
Thankfully after lots of will & determination, i managed to reach a size 12/10 - which i am MEGA happy with! (well almost!! lol) I thought i'd just go for a few months, lose a few pounds, get bored, leave then pile it all back on + more, so to achieve what i did, boosted my confidence through the roof! :)
It's hasn't all been plain sailing though.. altogether i lost 3 stone and 4 lb, and managed that in just 5 months! sounds good in some ways but not in others - I had to be super strict with everything i ate, which in 'real life' just isn't possible to maintain (& be happy!)... which it wasn't.. and that's why i re-gained over half of what i lost :-(
What's done is done though and i'm not going to mope about over it anymore, i've done all that feeling sorry for myself crap & well basically, it just made me feel worse.. so on Wednesday 8th February, i decided enough was enough (2nd time lucky eh?) and re-joined a new group - I feel really motivated and enthusiastic about it, partly because i am still in a size 12.. albeit a little tight, i'm still a 12 - so to make sure that doesn't turn into a 14, my heels are now well and truley dug in!
4 other people joined the class with me the same day and i am determined to have the biggest loss in our first week!
I'm quite a competitive person so having people to compete with (so to speak) helps me persevere, and because i don't actually have as far to go as most of the other people in the group, i'm almost at the finish line (one way of putting it! lol) so i just have to keep going!!
so... i'll be doing an update each week of my progess (with a capital P!! lol ) there will be NO gains!!- need to be told that about 1000 times under hynosis!! lol
