I'm starting on Monday! Week 7!




How many times have you said those words?!?! Just you wait..Monday! I'm on it!!! This is the LAST time.. sigh.. we've all been there... I've put off starting more times that I'd ever want to admit! Sadly the starting day never seemed right for a variety of reasons! There was a holiday on the horizon... Someones birthday was soon and ALL relatives counted..I was tired of trying.. I liked the bad foods too much.. I hated setting myself apart from other people.. I was meeting pals and I'd have to be the odd one out..  You see for a long time it was always tomorrow for me... but tomorrow never comes.. there's always going to be some excuse.. aren't you worth it? Don't you deserve to be healthy and fit? Don't you owe it to yourself and your loved ones to be the best you can be? Don't you want to hang around on the planet for as long as you can? well then.. start today.. now this minute.. Christmas is ONE day! Next week is a blog all about parties and munchies and drinkies!!! There's 5 weeks left.. 2lbs a week is one dress size or a pant size for the boys... There's no point in throwing the 'wait till I really start in January' about the place ... you're only giving yourself permission to go crazy for the net six weeks and UNDO all the hard work you've done this year... take a look at last Christmas.. and my personal step is AMAZING!! I was looking at some pics from the parties last year and there's a noticeable difference with 4st gone.. and I know there's still a lot left to go but boy am I happy about the journey so far.. the gains, and there have been many... the losses some accepted with grace some snarled at the scales.. "ONLY' half a pound sure I might as well not bother.. but I did.. and birthdays, holidays, anniversaries will come along all the time.. don't' use them as an excuse to derail... the final slug for that Christmas dress and New years glam!!! C'mon!!!

  1. I somehow forgot to update after my last WI - the 2lb loss was for the week of the 15th and I gained half a pound this week :-( (prob why I forgot to update). This last 10 lbs are gonna be super tough -I always get stuck around here! But just have to stick with it and I'll get there eventually x

    1. And STS this week! Did everything right - was hoping for a lot more. Not a happy camper at all! Not a chance of losing this week - dinner out on friday night for sisters birthday, kids birthday party followed by boozing session saturday and then welcome to the world party for my boyfriends newphew on sunday! Loads of food and drink all around me all weekend :-(

    2. Have all your losses recorded and you're still half a stone lighter than when we started!!! That's nearly a dress size.. and enjoy the fun.. no one wants to be 'i can't play cause I'm doing weight watchers' .. enjoy it.. have a some light breakfasts and lunches and soon as the hangover ceases.. fruit it up! You'll be grand! xxx

    1. Take it one step at a time.. and set realistic goals.. aim for 7lbs first... then worry about the next 7! My leader says that to me all the time.. I only want you to lose 7 lbs.. and that's much less daunting than 4 stone! and try to plan or each meal.. there will always be a time when you can't help being 'bold' but thats one meal a week.. we eat 21 meals a week... so if all your breakfasts and lunches were healthy.. you already winning! Stick with it.. we're all here for the same journey! x
