Let me preface this by saying that I have never, ever, EVER been able to stick to a
This time something just clicked. I think it's possibly because I'm not losing weight for anything in particular this time. There are no big events coming up, I'm just generally fed up with the size I am and looking like the fat one in every photo I'm in doesn't help either.
So all by myself I came to the decision that I was going to join Slimming World. Even when I was sat in the meeting I wasn't convinced I was going to stick it. I usually last until someone offers me chocolate or I walk past the biscuit tin but not this time! Amazingly I managed 5 weeks without so much as a sniff of anything sweet, I lost 1stone 1lbs in 5 weeks and it was all going great. Until...
My Dad had to go and turn 50, and we had to throw him a surprise party didn't we?! Cue a Costco cake so big that it took over a week to finish. Now I was good, I had 3 squares of cake that would have added up to what I would have classed as a small slice before. But that was the start of the downward spiral that has been my life over the last fortnight.
The Costco cake was followed by a Cadburys tray cake to celebrate his actual birthday & I ate some of that. It was disgusting & I do not recommend it but that doesn't mean I didn't try it 4 or 5 times anyway. Who knows, it might have gotten better the longer it lay on the worktop? Greedy, greedy, greedy. So after all that, last week I lost 1 pound. Not too bad considering what a grubber I'd been, I was definitely going to get back on plan next week.
Ha Ha Ha! If I thought I was a grubber last week, this week has been something else entirely. I've had a week of eating what I want. when I want & only about 5% of that has been remotely healthy.
So here I am dreading my weigh in tonight & it's all my own fault. It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest to see the scales at exactly the same as what they were the week I joined. But onwards & downwards I suppose!
Wish me luck!
