It's always difficult walking into a room full of strangers, let alone when you then have to stand on scales and have your weight read out in front of them, however I seem to have a different type of determination this weight-loss time round, and honestly, my first meeting wasn't so bad.
So, today is officially my first day following the meeting last night. Some information:
Current weight - 16st, 5 lbs
Height - 5.5 and a half
Age - 30
Target - 12st
I would like to lose all the weight by the wedding (27th August) but I have given myself the more realistic goal of 3 stone by the wedding and the rest by the time we go on honeymoon in November.
I generally eat quite healthily, particularly as I'm a fish eating veggie, however as per the SW rules, I eat wayyyyyyy too much olive oil, butter, avocado and nuts......not to mention the sporadic binges on crisps and chocolate (you don't get to 16 stone without a few hundred chocolate binges!).
I do 3 half an hour HIIT sessions with a personal trainer a week and I go to Pilates twice (well, once, but I'm meant to be going twice!). I only drink water (hate tea and coffee) and work 7 days a week at the moment so I think it will find my syn allocation easier than most as I don't have to worry about fitting in alcohol, milk for hot drinks etc.
I would like to have been more organised for the 1st SW day, but due to a nasty migraine, post meeting I went home and straight to bed and didn't sort out my food for today.
Breakfast was actually the same as every day, except porridge was measured and I omitted my usual, generous dollop of honey: 40g porridge oats / Almond milk (I don't drink dairy milk) and a big handful of raspberries. It was quite sticky and dry without the honey so tomorrow I need to add more almond milk.
Lunch was SW-ish. I had a pre-cooked Spanish potato omelette in the fridge that needed eating so I had half of that with the same amount of broccoli and LOTS of lemon juice. The omelette was made with olive oil so I'm not sure how to work out the syns. If it had been homemade, it would have been a perfectly on-plan meal!
Dinner is out (always good to start a new eating plan on an 'occasion') as tonight is my step-siblings Birthdays (triplets!!). However, we are going to a Turkish where it's pretty easy to eat healthily. I plan on having some grilled fish and salad - sure it will all be covered in olive oil too so I will have to do my best to avoid any more syns until weigh in day as I really want a good first week result!
