Hi everyone,
I am so overwhelmed by this Slimming World malarkey. I joined 3 weeks ago weighing 16 stone 2 . I am 5 ft 8 and would like to lose 5 stone.
Anyway, first week I lost 6lbs,
This week I lost 3lbs. So I got my half stone award yesterday .
9lbs lighter in total which of course I am thrilled with.
BUT I am really struggling with cooking and meal planning. I am really overwhelmed trying to fit in all the healthy extras, and calculate the syns. I don't have a fancy iphone so can't use the app that everyone at group seem to have. I am therefore either eating all free and superfree foods or else I am massively falling off the wagon (like today) and just eating everything, (chippy tea anyone?!) I am so cross at myself but with 2 young children, poor cooking skills and a husband working long hours, I am really struggling to make this work as a long term way of life.
I know it sounds stupid because so far my losses have been good but it feels like I am 'faking' it because I am not following it as I should.
I know it works. There's people at the group who have lost 6+ stones and my friend who has lost 4 stone and maintained it for 2 years now. I need to understand how to make it work for me.
Basically I need hand holding and someone to help with meal ideas. I am so close to just giving in and going down the calorie counting route. Please save me!
Sorry for rambling!
