The Beginning of a Slimming World Journey

Straight after I had Baba I went to Slimming World, before then I had never really dieted but I put on four stone with Baba and knew that I had to shift it somehow, by the time Baba was christened at 5 months I had lost quite a lot but not all of it.

Since then I have struggled with my weight.

I have never got to the weight I was before Baba and having had two more pregnancies I have kept putting it on, not loosing it.

I have a huge problem with food, I don’t really like it. I only really like things like cakes, chocolate, and biscuits. Other food I do like, but I would never crave a bit of salmon like I would a chocolate bar. I eat because I have to, I know that I have to do it to survive and I can easily not have three meals a day as I am not that big an eater anyway.

But I am a bad eater.

I pick and graze and never graze on the right things.

I need to find an alternative to the chocolate and biscuits one that I do crave and want to eat.

As I said yesterday I don’t have long until I need to get in my dress and I need to get on top of quickly. Today I have a plan I am going to go through my old Slimming World books look through the cupboards and write a food plan, breakfast, lunch and dinner written out for every day and I need to stick to it.

I need to be ruthless I need to be strict and I need to wean myself of the crap food and go for the salads and healthier options.

I need to have a look and get some inspiration of the foods that I will eat and find some nice and easy and yummy recipes that I can do quickly around a five-year old and a baby. As that is the problem if I don’t prepare I just eat rubbish and I can’t do that at the moment. I need to be prepared and I need to eat well.

Any tips out there or some great Slimming World recipes?
