New to all things SW and determined! grr

[Nominal]

Hi there!

I'm new to slimming World, doing it at home, and I'm currently 16weeks pregnant with baby number 2. I'd not lost the baby weight from number 1 when i fell pregnant, so my weight has been a bit of an issue. Determined to gain as little as possible. Have already put on 4lb though, so starting SW (with alterations) to try to maintain as long as I can.

So yeah, thats the basics and where I am at the moment So... hello!

:wavey:Hello & welcome Nominal, why don't you have a nose in the Slimming world diaries, you're sure to find someone in the same situation as yourself, I think Sw give extra advice on pregnancy, I don't have any experience of it myself.

There's loads of recipe threads & helpful spread sheets to use at home. Here's links to a few threads I find helpful, you can subscribe to these threads to keep up with them.

You're more than welcome. I think you've made a great choice coz Slimming world is more of a lifestyle than a diet, you can fit it in with everything & not feel deprived. Hopefully it will benefit your pregnancy too,good luck with that, I have two girls, age 7 & 8.
