Slimming World: Week Two

I have found my second week on Slimming World easier than my first as I have not been craving chocolate and crisps as much as I did in my first week. I am actually really enjoying eating lots of fruit and salads now that the weather is getting warmer.

After I got weighed last week I did go off track a bit and I did eat a ham salad baguette with mayonnaise on from Gregg's and a cake but I synned them and got straight back on track and have found that I have stuck to plan all week. I have also found that I have been using less syns this week simply because I have been too full of all the meals and free foods that I have been eating to want anything else. I have mainly been using my syns on sauces to go with my food and the odd packet of crisps.

This week I have eaten a lot of salads I have eaten steak salad, ham salad and turkey salads. I have also had salt and pepper chicken as it so tasty, chilli, roast gammon and I tried diet coke chicken which was delicious. 

I was really hoping for a 2.5 lb loss this week so that I would get my half a stone award and I was overjoyed on Thursday morning when I got weighed and seen that I had, in fact, lost exactly 2.5 lb meaning I have lost 7 lb in total. I got my first half a stone certificate and sticker and I am still slightly amazed that I have lost half a stone in just two weeks and have never once felt hungry or like I am dieting.

I could not stay to class this week as I had both the little ones with me as the other half was at work so I had no one to watch them, and there was no way I could have stayed to class with an 8 and 22-month-old, they would have caused destruction and screamed the place down. I find staying to class helps motivate me and inspires me so I am hoping that I can stay on track and still get a loss this week.

 I am hoping for another 2lb off this week although I am not getting my hopes up as I know that this week will be a star week and my chocolate and bread cravings will come back with a vengeance. But I am going to try and drink more water as I know I don't drink enough and everyone was saying last week that they had a good loss after drinking lots of water. I am also going to try and eat more speed foods and try some more new recipes so I don't get bored of eating the same things all the time.

  3. I'm not familiar with SW because I do WW. You've done great to lose 1/2 stone so quickly. Will have to consider a move over to SW. Keep up the hard work :)
