A Little Slimming World Update

So I realised today that I haven’t done an update with Slimming World for a while.

The last time I blogged about Slimming World I had just been to weigh in and had lost 4.5lbs which was amazing.

But a lot has changed since then, we didn’t go to weigh in last week as we had family commitments, and the week before I put on a pound.

But actually Slimming World has been really really difficult the last few weeks.

I haven’t really been following the plan since I was ill with flu, and it has been really hard to get back into the swing of Slimming World. Especially as little things, like biscuits have crept back in, and having a little chocolate of an evening, and we have both stopped trying to fit exercise into our daily routine. Instead just claiming that we can’t fit it in, we have this to do and that to do, and getting a takeaway here and a takeaway there.

We have slowly but surely started to creep back into our old ways and instead of putting a great big stop to it, we haven’t overly resisted it.

But it is time that we made that stop.

And get back on the Slimming World bandwagon, so to speak.

We are both so near to getting 3 stone losses, which is actually amazing, we haven’t even been to Slimming World for a whole year yet, and we have so very nearly lost 6 stones between us.

And we have to keep that in our heads and focus on that.

And use that to get us back on track, and get us back focused for us to start loosing weight again at Slimming World.

I am not and I refuse to beat myself up if we do put on weight and reach for the chocolate bars, especially in March, it isn’t exactly the easiest of months, and I am not going to make myself feel bad for doing that this month.

If this means that we get through this month and Rhianna’s birthday that unscathed, then that is what will happen.

But at the same time, I will make sure that we will be eating as well as we can. Today I have been and done a massive food shop for us all, I have planned what we are going to eat for the week, and I have healthy snacks to snack on. We have fresh fruit and veg and things that we can pick up and eat rather than just having crisps and chocolate in the house, as they are so easy to snack on and eat.

I am determined that we are going to get back into the right frame of mind for us to be back in the Slimming World mindset. And to once again get focused and get both of us our 3 stone awards.
