Slimming World

Bit about me.....aged 29, married, pcos and on a break from TTC (long story), overweight and hungry for change.

I've been trying to lose weight all year, so far I've gained 8lbs. Yes gained 8lbs. My own fault, I start strong then something upsets me or my routine gets altered and I go all off kilter.
My DH says he'll help me to lose weight etc but he doesn't. Instead he buys all junk food and gets takeaways. I know yes, I should just leave him to it and not eat them but if it's there then I do. I'm only human.

So we want to start TTC in April 2016. I have pcos which stands in my way and I know by losing weight my symtoms will improve or go away.
I'm joining slimming world on Thursday and I'm hoping this will be a success. I want to lose 3 stone (42lbs) so my BMI will be good.

Has anyone out there had success with slimming world?

Xxx

Hello I've had success I've lost two stone it's took me nearly two.years through although I don't feel I hades much to.loose as others may have had. The reason it took me longer is because I'm human and have bad weeks but in.general it's gone down I daresay u would loose faster if u keep to it 100% I've taken the scenic route lol. Good luck

Thanks for replying to me and i'm glad to hear you have done well on it.
I went and got all of the books and I must be honest and say I love it but I'm concerned about how much meat, pasta and potatoes you can eat for free. DH says it must be because your body breaks them down quicker and burns calories whilst doing so. Im still going to stick to weighing my pasta at 75g and use wholemeal only.

How are you getting on? I joined slimming world a couple of weeks ago and i love it . I lost 3.5lbs on the first week, then 1.5lbs on the second week. I think its the availability of having the carbs and proteins which i enjoy and lets me keep to plan. It is quite daunting trying to get your head around the idea of eating these types of food and it being classed as 'free' food, but im sure it will become second nature soon .

Good luck at the weigh-in! xx
