Wow!

My first weigh in after a week of slimming world, and i'm very pleased with how it's gone.  I lost 10lbs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been really good, and really enjoyed it too.  I have been doing actual cooking, from scratch, and its been a while since I did that!  On Sunday I made chilli beef noodles, it was lurverly!  On Monday I made chicken tikka massala (which wasn't quite so lurverly, but I was missing a few ingredients, haha!).  On Tuesday I made a chilli, and had it with rice and it was delish!!  I had left over chilli on a jacket potato last night.  All the recipes were from the Slimming World website.

So all in all, I have eaten well, I haven't once felt hungry, and it feels good to be back in control :)

It's bin day today, and when I was putting the bin out this morning I realised it was only 3/4's full, normally it's bursting at the seams.  The only thing I can think is it's because there's no takeaway packaging (been having 2-3 takeaways per week), fewer chocolate/crisp wrappers (there's still some as hubby hasn't joined in yet!), and no cake tubs etc!

Ahem, Is There Anybody Still Out There?

Hello, it's been quite a while, thought I would update.

I've had an awful time of things since August.  Things were pretty bad and i'm still recovering but getting there.  I became very depressed (I have been heading steadily down hill for nearly 2 years now), and got all suicidal.  I took a couple of overdoses and the crisis team were involved for a while.  I'm having CBT appointments now and things are getting better.  I'm being a good girl and sticking to my meds too.

I have gained back all the weight I lost on WW.  Last night I joined Slimming World.  I'm looking forward to getting back into and seeing my weight come off again.  Hopefully this will help a whole heap of things that have been depressing me and I can start living again, rather than just "being".

For anyone who has been reading my blog a while, Kieron turned 3 last Saturday, where the heck did those 3 years go!?!
