My Weight Loss Journey

SW adapted porridge for breakfast! 100mls milk(3.5 syns as my nan only buys in whole milk) 150mls water(or less if you prefer porridge thick and gloopy) Cut strawberries for speed! Yummy and filling!! NB if you use skimmed or semi skimmed milk it's part of your A-choice, but I'm sure you already knew that

Reasons why I want to change the way I treat my body

I had one bad meal at Harvester for my sisters 21st and my Nans 68th, but I still made good choices, had lots of Speed food at the salad bar, didn't eat the chicken skin(ew how could anyone it's like eating greasy rubber) and best of all, I TURNED DOWN ICE CREAM, this is a HUGE achievement for me, as usually I would have gorged on a huge fatty ice cream, and I feel great for it!!

I am terrible for this, I never drink enough water, and that is a habit I aim to change, by drinking at least 1.5L per day for now. Doesn't sound like a lot but I go for nearly two days without a drop of fluid at times 😁😁

My mum is a huge inspiration to me, after being big for as long as I can remember, she turned herself around and lost 6st 9lbs in 12 months. The change in her isn't just appearance, she's much more confident and wears much brighter colours! She suffers from a multitude of physical disabilities including osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia and a bunch of others I can't even pronounce let alone spell, and she is in so much less pain and can do so much more after losing the excess weight! Words can't explain how proud I am to say that this is my beautiful mum! She is on her way to becoming a slimming world consultant herself, and she will be great at it! Sorry about the long posts but this is so important to me

After joining slimming world in January, at first I didn't really have the motivation, I'd just lost my job, had no income(thank god for my lovely Mum) and I injured my knee ice skating, but last Thursday that changed, after gaining 7.5lbs in one week, I was at my heaviest, 18st 2.5lbs, even worse, my total weight loss(if you can call it that) was at +2lbs. This was the kick up the proverbial backside I needed, so the next day I planned my meals, I am so determined to lose 6st by my 18th birthday in March next year! I know no one is following my blog at the moment but I hope that will change, and if I can help one other person while turning my life around, I will be over the moon!
