I love slimming world but it's more of a maintainance diet for me. It doesn't shift anything much and I get bored of waiting. So I'll do that after exante. I bounced on the scales this morning and I'm 13'7 on day 5 with still all today, tomorrow and the next day before weigh in. I'm delighted with that. 13'6 is all I've ever gotten to without giving up, in 8 years! I went from 12 to 14 stone when I met my horrible ex husband and I've had 4 of my 5 babies since. Every time going to 15'6 and then dropping to somewhere in the 14s. I'd get as low as 13'6 then that's all I could get to. I eventually discovered that my medication for reflux disease which I started taking 8 years ago was playing a part in it. I recently stopped that and it seems my metabolism isn't as suppressed as it was before. If you look back through my old diary, I was only losing 1 and 2 pounds a week at the start of exante! I can't believe it. I knew all along I wasn't eating enough to sustain a 14 stone frame. So now I'm done having babies I'm so excited to lose weight. Just 2 more pounds and I'll weigh less than I have in 8 years. That's huge for me.
Day 5 is going well. Coffee and tea down. Now for aloe etc. I keep dreaming I eat food then waking up to find I haven't and I'm like yussss lol.
