I will be a yummy mummy!

[Tinkerbell1987]

Hi, I am stacey, and I have a little boy who is nearly a year old now, how that has happened i have no idea! I am marrying my gorgeous fiance on 7th december 2012 and I am determined to be a yummy mummy and a happy wife by the end of the year!

I have always been over weight for as long as I can remember, but now that we have our beautiful son I really need to start ditching the pounds, not just for me, but for him also, I dont want to be the fat mam at the school or not be able to play football with him, I want him to be proud of me!

I started slimming world on 25th April and weighed a staggering 18st 10lb :cry:but as much as that upset me I cant change what my start weight was, but what i can change is what the scales say each week, and I will never be seeing those figures again!

I lost 10.5lb in my first week and this has really spurred me on, i have a new mummy friend who is also marrying in december, and although she is a lovely curvy size 14 she wants to loose a little before her wedding too, so we are going to try and go for walks with our boys at least once a week together, its nice to have someone that i can relate to!

Just thought i would start a diary to keep me going really, but if anyone wants to read along then thats fab too

Good Luck Yummy Mummy,
I am starting today and we are roughly around the same weight and look forward to watching your journey and hopefully share ideas and tips.

Hiya

Good luck chick, your off to a flying start!!

Keep up the good work and congratulations on tieing the knot x

 

[nutty me]

Many years ago, I think I will try the extra easy this time. Have you done Sw before?
I have just been looking at menus and Im thinking how will i lose weight on this?

What are you doing ?

 

[Tinkerbell1987]

thanks chelle - I am doing EE nutty, it was a while ago since i last done SW too!

well its weigh day today, i have stuck to the plan 100% but still feeling nervous! I would loooove to loose 3.5lbs to get my stone award but i will get there slowly but surely anyways

this is the first time that i have ever started a diet and after 2 weeks thought i can still stick to this, i honestly think i will be sticking to this diet long term now yey!!!

[Tinkerbell1987]

sorry for the slow update! I lost 3.5lb so a stone in total in 2 weeks - amazing!!

however (tmi alert) i havent been to the loo properly for days now, according to the scales i have now gained 2lb hoping it will sort itself out by wed with the amount of remedies i have tried hahaha!

[nutty me]

Well done on the loss, you have had a fantastic start !
My weigh in today so fingers crossed !!.
Have you got a food diary on here? Thought i would have look.
Ive just started one for my first week. looks like Ive eaten loads, it is taking me a while to get my head around EE as its so different.
Hope you are ok!

Congratulations that's fab. My little girl is 7 months and I've no idea where the times gone! I'm doing SW from home and lost 9.5lbs so far, much slower than you though!

How are you finding the plan?

 

[Tinkerbell1987]

how did you do nutty? i havent got a food diary yet, must start though!

hi sarah, these babies are hard work arnt they haha! I am finding it really easy to be honest, how about you?

weigh in again tomorrow, fingers crossed for a loss

[sarah83]

Good luck for tomorrow, sure you'll be fine.

I am finding it easy... When I've got the willpower to stick to it! But the odd lass of wine/cake/biscuit/hot choc gets the better of me more than it should. I don't mind taking e scenic route, it has to fit in with my life rather than change it.

 

[Tinkerbell1987]

Yes the scenic route, i am quite familiar with that route haah! I am getting married in Decmember, so unfortuantly on this occasion, i need to take the direct route argh! xxx

 

[Tinkerbell1987]

another 2.5lbs off for me this week, so thats 16.5lbs in 3 weeks yey!

on the other hand, went shopping for a dress for my sons first birthday party next week, and nothing in any shops fit me :cryh well, least i am doing something about it, and for his next birthday i will be a nice slim mummy
