In less than 7 months Tony and I tie the knot. I have a dress hanging at my parents in Scotland and want it to look great on the day. I am using IPB as extra motivation to help me lose the weight I want off before the big day.
I am not as worried about the wedding itself as the dress actually fits, but want it taken in on the day. It is the honeymoon in Vegas that scares me more with all the skinny wimmin around the place.
I plan to lose about 10kg by the time I get married. I have been at Slimming World since the 9th of January and made a start on getting off the Christmas period excess.
I don't think 22lbs is much to lose in 6.5 months, but want to get it off and tone up and have a healthier lifestyle in general.
I used to do the protein diets which I got Tony into. But I have found that even although I was cutting out the carbs and exercising, I was losing nothing at all. I planned on going to SW in the new year and follow their plan.
I have got to say though, this is the first time I have enjoyed dieting. I have loads to eat in a day and never go hungry. I eat a lot more fruit and veg than I ever did and only have lean meats. I do have rice and pasta when I want as they are allowed on the diet.
I go to zumba twice a week and run about between work/FAS/kids the rest of the time. I have been losing about 1.5lbs a week on average.
I have 27 weeks till my target date of the end of August and I hope to be able to keep on track every week without going on a mad one and ruining my good work. I know that I can set myself behind by a week just by eating crap for a couple of days and I really don't want to do that.
I plan on reporting each Monday what my loss is when I get weighed at SW and fingers crossed that I meet my target on time.
Wish me luck
Any advice to boost my weight loss will be appreciated. Now I have one exam out the way the pressure is off for a couple of months.
