New year New Start Slimming world

[Newniki2013]

Im like that and now need the motivation to get back on it properly Sent from my GT-I9300 using MiniMins.com mobile app

Do you set yourself challenges? To be at my target weight it would be so long before I could treat myself so I've set myself treats and challenges.

My challenges are 2lb a week, so I work out jan was 8lb, it helps me have a mini goal. And I am also putting my £5 WI money into a pot along with £10 when I reach a 1/2 stone, and when I reach a 1 full stone I get a pandora charm and when I get to my target my husband said I can get the charm I have always wanted (gold and silver one)

So working out 2lb a week loss it would take me 45 weeks to get to target (roughly) and 6 x 1/2st£10's and 6 pandora charms and my target charm.
That way when I need motivation I can see how far I am from my 'treat' the money will be used to buy new clothes as I drop the sizes but only an item or 2 each time, so hopefully when I am my ideal size I can go and buy a whole new wardrobe with the money I earned.

Yeah my goal currently is to be 10st 6lbs by my holiday in may. Im getting quite bored of eating the same foods over and over again. I know where I want to be and some days I have the motivation but others I really dont.

Can anyone give me any fresh ideas for breakfast lunch and dinner that are easy to do?

Breakfast - Oat Pancakes - 35g oats mixed with a yoghurt of your choice and an egg. Fry the 'batter' into little pancakes! So yummy.

Dinner - search for She Cooks, She Eats on google. She has lots of SW friendly recipes on her site. One of my fave dinners ever is her Chicken Parmagiana

Magic porridge is porridge oats and muller light yoghurt. The night before u put some porridge oats into a bowl and mix with the yoghurt. Leave it in the fridge over night and you can eat it hot or cold the next day

No worries. And apparently in the morning if you add an egg to it you can make pancakes

Oh I may try that on the weekend for a change! On the weekend I'm going to sit down and meal plan .. last week and a half I haven't and I know I've not stuck to it as I should have. So a fresh start is needed!

Hey I know this is over stepping the mark but try adding more fruit and veg to the diet, helps with constipation. Also try changing your b choices a few times a Week as that might help too.

Thank you for your message. I do try to eat as much fruit and veg as possible. But thanks for the advice x
