I'm sitting here wondering what it is that clicks in your head so that you have the level of motivation and commitment to lose weight, how on earth does it click when the wanting to lose weight never really changes!??
Any how im very grateful for the click, as i am very focused and very much on plan.
My previous attempts at losing weight with slimming world have always been really good (that's why i came back!)
The first time in 1999 i lost all my baby weight 3.5 stone which i carried for years after the births! and was even featured in the magazine!
second time around 2009 i had 1.5 stone to get back in target i had slowly crept up over a course of 10 years. i managed a stone but felt quite happy to call it target.
And now my 3rd attempt! 2011, I'm heavier now than my first ever weigh in! to get back to my original target weight i need to lose 3 stone! how did i get here? :cry:
I've had a very challenging year. 2 operations, i gave up my job because of the horrific hours, getting up at 4.00am mon - sat, getting home at 2.00pm & juggling the demands of family with depression. I have gained 2.5 stone in just over a year.
I'm still not 100% there health wise but mentally feeling better! im enjoying being a stay at home mum and having more time to put myself first.
I've been putting off losing weight until my health was better so i could do it properly 'diet & exercise' but it got to the point where none of my clothes fit anymore and i refused to go out and buy a dress size up!
so here i am! i reasoned with myself that i didn't need the exercise to lose it before with SW! after a few false starts trying to go it alone at home and revisiting the tweaked version of SW in my head, i joined a brand new group with a great consultant, and a new plan (for me) EE.
I know i will get there, i can see myself back there!! and if it takes a 1lb a week then so be it, if its any faster even better!!
