If You Fail To Prepare, You Prepare to Fail

[UKSerena]

Hi Everyone, after an Annus Horribilis 2012 I have finally faced the scales today and restarted WW Propoints! I have 1 Stone 7 lb in total to lose but need to shift as much as I can before Saturday 29th June as I have a wedding reception to attend and can't even fit in my party dress at the moment :-0 I am on 26PP and WI will be on a Friday! I hope to make lots of nice new friends here as I need all the help and motivation I can get! Lots of Love Serena x

Well here I am on Day 2, Day 1 went well, used my whole daily 26pp but didn't use any of my weeklies! I didn't find it too difficult although I realised the quantities I must of been eating before restarting as OMG 26pp 'bought' me a fraction of what I was eating lol x

Day 3 is here, Day 2 went well, I used all my 26 dailies but again none of my 49 weeklies. Today is going to be more of a challenge, so far I have not been in any situations where I have had to face temptation but today I am off out for the day. I am going to Prezzo for lunch but another member kindly helped me find something which will keep me on plan so I will not be tempted to stray on the menu! I am also going to have a look in Poundland to see if there are any WW bits I would like to buy. I'm hoping I manage to stay strong whilst I am out today, I can do this!!! X

Thank You Sweetie, I will report back as to how I got on at Prezzo, I think it will prick my conscience if I try and sway from my preplanned choices knowing that I will have to post it here! X

I'm home from Prezzo and I have to say I feel very proud of myself! My daughter had the most yummy looking Galic Bread with Cheese to start, not a crumb passed my mouth! I had my preplanned Light Options PENNE ARRABBIATA for 10pp, I skipped the dressing so I could have a small sprinkling of Parmesan. My daughter left half of her Mains Pizza and rather than picking at it like i would normally I asked for them to wrap it up so she can have it with vegetables for dinner tomorrow night! I had a Sparkling Water to drink, looked at the Dessert Menu and didn't order anything and didn't even have a lick of my daughters ice cream! All in all I'm very proud of myself, best of all the meal only 'cost' me 10pp so I still have 10pp left for tonight and haven't even touched any Weeklies! X Not much in Poundland although I did get some Kit Kat Cookies and Cream Bars, 3pp for both fingers which I thought would be a great treat to have in the fridge. I also stopped at Morrissons and got some Cherries, Melon and Grapes, I'm not a huge fruit fan so this is a great positive step for me! X

Thanks Sweetie Not having a Starter/Dessert and not picking from my daughters plate were two huge victories for me! I'm sitting in the garden with a giant smile on my face x

Sounds like you're doing really well so far, I haven't been out for a meal yet on plan as I worry about my willpower. I have a wedding in a couple weeks and not sure how I'll point my meals that day and the drink!! What day will you WI?

Thank You Sweetie. I also have a Wedding to go to on 29/06, really hoping that I have lost a fair bit by then so firstly I can fit in my party dress and secondly I can relax just a little bit! I will WI on Friday so I'm nearly half way through my first week and haven't used any Weeklies yet! X

Hi Serena, thought I would post as we have something in common. I too have a stone and a half to loose and want to loose as much of it as I can before my friends wedding on 28th June. I too have my outfit but its tight fitting and clings on my stomach at the moment but I am hoping to fit in it for the wedding. You seem to be doing well so far keep up the hard work. I joined ww online a few weeks ago and I've lost 10lb so far. Joined a meeting last Tuesday so first weigh in at the meeting on Tuesday, keeping my fingers crossed x

Wow that's lots of similarities we have! You have done so well with your 10lbs in a few weeks, you should easily shift a proportion if not all of your 11lbs in the next 6 Weeks! I also made another decision last night whilst on eBay, I have bought my daughter a very similar red spotty party dress so I can't now use the excuse that I will wear another one of my dresses! Good Luck for Tuesday Sweetie, looking forward to hearing how u get on. X

Thank You for reading Sweetie, finding this Forum such a great help particularly without the support of a Meeting. X

Hi Everyone, another successful day other than feeling really bloated :-( I'm hoping that its either in my head or its gone by Fridays WI, still not used any of my Weeklies, just not been in any situations where I have had to need them and don't want to eat for the sake of it, that's how I got to this mess in the first place!
