My long winded journey began in 2009 I've joined slimming world that many times I forgot when I first started. Dieting is easy even the word Diet makes me depressed, so i ask myself why do i keep joining because i know Slimming World Works for me but being the same weight yoing yoing up and down the same weight for a few years now.

I keep starting writing this blog on and off too.

I've made a whatsapp group there 6 of us in this group they feel like my sisters so glad I did the group it motivates us.

So I bet you all wondering why I am doing this again, writing again. I need to be focused. Everything to stay on track I'm doing.

Double Dose

Sorry guys it a double dose today went into work yesterday early, by the time I woke up got ready had food it was time to go to work.

so yesterdays was 100% again. Green Day

Breakfast this was at work on break was 35g of bran flakes semi skimmed milk (hea, heb) used. followed by fruit nectarine melon, honeydew and watermelon, 2 british plums. also a rhuharb shape yoghurt  for 0.5 sin.

Came home and I really fancy something filling so came up the only was Slimming World friendly fry up. 2 quorn sausages 2 sin baked beans, mushrooms, 2 eggs, plum tomato decide to follow up with more fruit strawberries, more melon.

Tea was Quorn Bolognaise with spaghetti did had a bit of chilli sauce 0.5 accompanied with salad. Decided on a little treat frozen curly wurly 6 sins.

After speaking with my other half has Saturdays is going to be my weigh in days for the next two weeks we going out I'm going to have what I like but not excessive and back on plan day after where has before I would of continued eating naughties. But not no more.

It feels good to be back

Yesterday was day one and felt good to be back, sometimes I find it hard to get back on Slimming World Bus, with me one naughty day turns into another then another and before you know it, a week. In my head I think oh well I blew it now and it spirals out of control.

I'm back to doing basics trying red days for a few days, even doing Slimming World for years I still use the Food Optisming book to look at what healthy extras measurement.

I weighed myself yesterday and I'm 16st 6.5lb. I do wonder will I ever get into the 15's been this weight nearly 2 years up and down like a yoyo. I need to believe in myself and believe I can do this.

I will be taking each 1/2st a step at time not looking at the bigger picture.

Doing night shifts well can be hard work especially fitting food in Sleep vs Food.

Day 2 consists of.

Breakfast on break at work.

2 Weetabix(heb) milk from milk (hea) allowance, followed by fruit plum, nectarine and another shape Rhubarb crumble you worth 0.5sin

Snack was watermelon, honeydew melon and nectarine

Tea was delicious smoked haddock carrot and swede and veg accompanied with melted low low cheese (hea) used.

Long time no speak

Well the last time I blogged was January, this is quite shocking really how you let thing slide.

This diet has taken it toll, decisions on which one I should follow did sign up for Rosemary Conley did lose 5.5lb in the first week. however has the week went on it just didn't feel right. I'm a Slimming World Girl end of.

So after following a few groups I knew it felt right to go back to Slimming World, I won't be attending any class any time soon, I will be doing it from home if I fail doing this at home I will join a class.

There one of the groups I'm on it called Don't Feed the White Robins, this group amazing love the support even when people have a bad day no one judges. Made some great friends.

Today is Day 1 this has been successful- Giving Red Day a bash this week. I will see how I get on.

Doing nights shifts so need to plan more.

Breakfast was a fruit salad

 
Lunch Ham salad with 5 rye crispbread(heb) and 3 Extra light laughing cow (hea)

 

 

Tea was Pepsi Max chicken with stirred fried rice and roasted veg
