I started back at Slimming World 2 months ago, and in the last 8 weeks I’ve made great progress and managed to lose 2 stone in weight.
I wasn’t prepared to receive my 2 stone award today, as I was still 3½ away as of last week, and I didn’t think that was achievable. However I ended up losing 4 lbs in the week, which was amazing!
I wasn’t doing anything special this week – I was just following the food optimising plan as usual. And I guess it paid off!
In less good news, I’m feeling pretty ropey today, as I had a tooth surgically extracted yesterday, and it was a lot more traumatic than I had imagined it would be. I’m on a whole rake of drugs, but I still feel like I’m nursing a bad hangover – when I haven’t even had a drink!
It’s also sad that we’re losing our lovely consultant Caoimh at my Saturday morning SW group. It’s a real shame to see her go, but she’s still continuing to run her Tuesday and Wednesday groups. We don’t yet know who we’re getting to replace her on Saturdays mornings – but at least we’ve had assurances that the group will continue with somebody.
I’m a bit annoyed that I never got my 2 stone sticker (I don’t care about the cert) to put on my board in the kitchen. I’ve got a new consultant now and it doesn’t feel right asking her for the sticker. So I wonder if there’s a black market trade somewhere run by a disgruntled former SW consultant that’s selling off award stickers. If so I’d be interested in a deal!
