Slimming World: Week 5 Weigh in

This week was a real tough week for me. I felt unmotivated and was contemplating giving up more than one in the week. Nothing appealed to me this week more than junk food and i was snacking more than i was eating a proper meal - which was frustrating.

I would tell myself each day that this was my treat day and that tomorrow would be better - but instead of lasting one day this lasted the whole week. I went out for dinner and drinks with work the night before weigh day - so i kinda thought all week that this would ruin it anyway so i may as well not try.

After talking with my friend that i go with,  i felt a lot better. I was telling her how i was thinking of giving up and feeling crap cause of how bad i ate and she gave me some great advice - she told me there was no point in feeling guilty for hours after eating something that was junk because there was nothing that i could change after that.

So we have both decided that we should draw a line in the side this week and start fresh from Friday with a better outlook on this whole diet thing. In the 5 weeks i have been doing this, this is my first really tough week - i knew it would come but i did not think it would be so early in the diet. So from tomorrow i am aiming to be back on plan - although i am going out for drinks both Friday and Saturday which is really bad timing tbh, but i just have to be really good outside of this time and make sure that i am not just eating the wrong foods for the sake of it.

My target this week is 2lbs since i lost nothing this week and i am really aiming for 1lbs a week so i am at target for my holiday in 18 weeks!



Target Weight - 1 Stone and 3lbs to lose before my Holiday in June!

Slimming World - Week 2

My first week back at Slimming World and I would say that it was a complete success! 99% of the time I was on plan with just one day where a Nandos may have happened!  It paid off! My first weigh in and I lost 2.5lbs! I am delighted, it just goes to show you that if you stick to it then it pays off and you will see the results that you want. If I lose 2.5lbs every week I will be one happy girl! Lets hope this week I am just as determined as I was last week! Start Weight - 12Stone 12.5lbs Current Weight - 12Stone 10lbs To Target - 1 Stone 10lbs Thanks, Stef x

Mario Badescu Make Up Remover

For many months now I have been using a waterproof mascara as I feel like it hold a better curl and last a lot longer without dropping or shortening the curl. One thing I could not stand and quite frankly dreaded was having to take the mascara off to apply a fresh coat, I used to spend ages tugging at my lashes to try and get all the product off but for some reason my lashes just never felt clean, I always felt like there was still a coat of mascara on them. I searched the shops for removers that were specific to taking off waterproof mascara and even they did not seem to work either.  I loved how to mascara looked and I did not want to have to try and find another mascara that looked as good. I was looking through Beauty Bay a few months back and found the brand Mario Badescu and I remembered watching a video of Zoe where she spoke and raved about how good the brand was. Since I had tried everything else I didn't think it would hurt to give their waterproof ...

Slimming World - Fresh Start

Following on from my 2017 Goals post I decided to write about my fresh start at Slimming World. As I said I joined Slimming World in December of 2015 and for the first few months I really enjoyed having a new project to focus my time and energy on. However, I do think I went about it the wrong way - in the beginning I restricted what I ate so much that I barely ate anything that was not completely free on the plan and barely used any syns - and even though back then I had great weight losses and was very happy with how I looked, there came a day where I cracked and ended up eating anything and everything that was bad for me. Because I restricted myself to so much from eating the things that I enjoyed i just broke and ever since then I never really looked at the plan the same way - I was never very committed to it after that. I really believe that having the 6 weeks away from the plan and allowing myself to miss then plan and miss eating the healthy foods that I used to, I ...
