Desperation

Well... weight watchers bit the dust about 2 weeks after my last post (which again was ages ago im ashamed to say). I knew I had put on weight after my birthday, I only have to look at a piece of cake and I've put on 2lbs. So I didnt bother going the day after. However I did go the week after that, after being SO strict and exercising loads I put on 1/2 lb. So disappointed. It just makes you think (well makes me think) what is the point if I put all this effort in and nothing happens.
And I noticed something the last time I was there. I think most of the people that go to weight watchers are trapped in the cycle of it. Just the same as me I might add, which is why I'm qualified to make this observation. They start on the plan all guns blazing, and for the first few weeks may have some good success. Then one day of one week they go wrong and think oh its ruined now theres no point me going to the next weight in. So they miss it, then they miss one more, and one more. Then after they have put on half a stone more they think I must get back to weight watchers and the cycle starts again. Sad isnt it. I know some people have had good success long term, but its the minority of that I'm sure.

Soooooo, to explain the title of this post, I have started on slim fast. Yes I know quick fixes dont work and all that. But I'm desperate, DESPERATE to give my diet a kick start, a big boot up the bum. Even if I just do it for a few months, say 3, and lose a stone or two I would be chuffed with that. But GOD its hard. My stomach rumbles constantly, I have felt light headed and yesterday my body felt all, like, shaky. I know these arent good things but sod it I'm gonna keep going with it until I see some results. Cos I am SICK and TIRED of carrying around this extra weight. I'm going to the gym later and hoping that speeds things up a bit. We'll see.

I will post my weight loss here weekly and hope I start to see it go down rapidly. Wish me luck... once again.
