For as long as I remember I have been overweight.
During my first year of sixth form I could fit into Topshop Size 16, by the end of my third year I was wearing size 24-26 and feeling so down about myself. Moving away to university allowed me to sort out my eating habits - living with others made me self conscious of my eating plus lack of money stopped me buying lots of food. I had soon dropped back down to a size 18 however during my final year some personal problems caused me some issues and I put the healthy eating to the side to focus on sorting myself out mentally.
I'm now at the point where my mind is in the right place for me to now focus on getting my body to a good place too. I'm currently a size 22 and I have been dabbling with Slimming World since January but never fully committed until now. After seeing so many inspirational Slimming Worlders on Instagram I fully believe that if I give this 100% I can definitely achieve great things.
The one hurdle I'm going to have to face is socialising. I often meet up with the girls from university to have boozy weekends so this is going to have to change. I need to work out how to do this without over consuming on calories.
This blog is a place for me to share my feelings, recipes and my general Slimming World journey. I hope one day that I can be inspiration to others.
As of today I have been back on plan for a couple of weeks and below are my current stats. My weigh in day is on a Friday and I will try and do weekly posts to link in with my weigh ins.
