My top tip

My top tip of the moment is if you constantly have a piece of chewing gum in your mouth you can't eat food.  You can't reach out and sneak the odd biscuit at playgroup without having to go through the whole hassle of discreetly removing the gum etc.

I lost 5 lbs this week WHOOPLA!

Here we go again...

Ok, so it's 5th January, I am fat and depressed.  My daughter has gone back to school, the buttons on my coat are hard to do up, the weather is shite, and we haven't got any money.

Due to a minor accident at the beginning of November, I was unable to attend Fat Club for quite some time.

Am currently 12 stone 2lbs.  No more cheese, After Eights, Baileys, and bread, although a little bit of cider is allowed.

Watch this space.

I'm so dizzy

The only thing I ate all day were two caramel rice cakes, ready for my weigh in this evening.  As I sat in the car in the pouring rain waiting for the doors of fat club to open, I came over all faint.

I happend to have a packet of smokey bacon crisps sititng next to me - my reward after the weigh in.  I just had to reach over and eat them before I went in.  I was a little embarrassed when the club leader pulled up next to me in her car and witnessed the whole thing.

Anyway, despite the crisps, I lost 2.5lbs this week.  I am happy with that.

We are off on hols tomorrow - I am determined to stay on the straight and narrow.

Slowly

I lost 1lb this week.

PMT and wine and feeling bloated

I was a shouty mum on Monday, and I was horrible to my husband.  I was in a foul mood, all thanks to PMT. 

I have a rule that I am not allowed wine mid-week.  However on Monday I buckled and ended up drinking an entire bottle in bed. 

When I have been drinking, I become dehydrated, and can drink gallons of water the next day but nothing comes out the other end.  You can see what I am building up to can't you?  At my weigh-in on Tuesday, I was expecting to have lost 4lbs (this was according to my scales), but in fact only lost 2lbs, and I am convinced it was from the wine.

So no wine this week!

YIPPEEEEEEE

The first week back at Slimming World and I have lost 5.5lbs!

Trying again

I really am one of those pathetic women that bang on about losing weight, do it for a while, and then the lure of the pizza and wine and chocolate gets too much and I fall off the wagon.

So, I rejoined Slimming World last night and was hopefully shocked into losing weight properly this time - I am 5 pounds heavier than I was when I first joined the last time.

If I carry on at this rate I will be become morbidly obese.
