Slimming World is the answer...

Diary entry 8th May 2012.
So ive been away for a while and i have eaten tons.
Yes in just over a year since my last post i have lost 18lb and gained it all back. Not because the diet didnt work but because Christmas was approaching and we are now allowed to eat at our workdesk and i wanted to indulge in the xmas spirit without holding back. I thought i would start afresh in the new year but with this and that and a few excuses its taken me up to May to start. Ironic that i 1st started Slimming World last June and lost the 18 within a matter of 6 weeks.
Oh well not to dwell on the past.
However i aim to start again and record everythign i eat.
This may be a dull blog to read to some so i appologies for that but for me i want to look back at this record and be able to see how i reached my goal weigh.

I started a new diary and one of my work collegues left me a little inspirational messgae.
She wrote " Today Lisa is going to be a very good girl as she is starting slimming world, not that she needs too. Good luck Lisa you can do this kitten!"
