Back in January I embarked on yet another "diet". I'd a pain in me hoop with feeling like a sack of dirty knick knacks. Initially I was loathe to try another UniWeightCurves type place but I realised I need the disgusted look of the woman weighing me in to keep me in check. I'd heard about Slimming World on Twitter (yet another reason to adore it). So with dread filling my heart (not an overreaction I swear) off I went out to the Crowne Plaza in Blanchardstown. You'd swear I was off to the gallows I felt so nervous. I've never been one for weighing myself. I tend to use my clothes as a guage to see if I've gained or lost weight. My younger mans Mam bless her every year she'd get me a top or cardi and every year the sizes would go up ha ha! She always said "ah it's for comfort hon sure they're all wearing them big these days"! But I knew what she was saying really :-) So anyhoo I got weighed. Mehhhhh!! I blogged about my first few weeks earlier on and I had fairly consistent losses then I forgot to blog about my progress. HUNGER!!!! I'm thinking hunger made me forget :-)) So I'm over 2 stone down now. Wahahahayyyyy!!
I'm thrilled of course but it's still soul destroying. Some weeks, you stick to the plan so well, you walk your dog, you clean your windows with vigour and batter the floors with the hoover and mop and at the weigh in you've either stayed the same or gained. What the actual fook!! And then there's the times when you're been on a mahoosive bender and drank litres of wine and eaten everything that wasn't nailed down and at the weigh in youre down 3lbs (I fecking love those weeks!):-) So it's hard to know what's gonna happen at the weighin and if you're anything like me, it'll determine your mood for the evening. A loss and it's oh life is wonderful and I'm so pretty and if you're up, well it's back to feeling like a sack of dirty knick knacks :-) I hate that it has this power over me but I think of it as a project, one that has a deadline that I haven't reached yet so I need to keep ticking away at it until the deadline is met. I had a bit of a fall off the oul wagon tonight though and succumbed to the Kinder Bueno that waved at me everytime I opened the fridge but feck it. Twas mahoosive and I enjoyed it. I'm focused but not when there's a Bueno in the house girls....jeez!;-P
