I've been back on slimming world for 5 weeks. Lost 7lbs in my first week and in total have lost 12lbs now which I am delighted about.
I'm 5'6" starting weight of 11st 8lbs and want to get down to 10st and see how I feel as to whether I want to lose more or maintain.
I have been strict, although indulged in several more gins of a weekend than syns have allowed for. When I tell people how much I've lost and they say well done, am I doing myself down to think: well, if it came off that fast it obviously needed to come off, or should I stick my head high and think yeah, I've worked hard for that?
I mean, I am very happy about it and it's not come off by magic and I think that's a lot of weight to lose in 5 weeks. So kudos. But.....is it being typically British or low self esteem to bash myself on the head saying ho hum big fat me, it needed going?
Does this even make sense? So many conflicting feelings about losing sodding weight.
