Those dreaded two words .. weight gain!
/If you are familiar with my blog, you will know I suffer with weight issues. This year has been especially hard for me. On the plus side, I am engaged and currently trying to buy a house (very exciting times huh?) On the downside, the wedding is next year and I am dreading the dress, that moment most girls look forward to their whole life. That one time they get to feel and look like a princess, well that is the case for most women. Most women except me.
I should be looking forward to the dress fittings instead of cowering away from them. And there's that word again ... should!
I am trying to do something about it ... really I am! I recently joined Slimming World, this week was my first "proper" week. How did I do? Terribly, I am actually up 3 lbs. Now I know most people would laugh at that and think it's nothing, I'm afraid my mind does not see things that way. Me and weight have always been at war with one another and finding out I gained weight is definitely a slap in the face. Once could say it is my worst nightmare.
The easy thing to do would be to accept the way I look instead of fight it but I just can't do that, lord knows I have tried! Weight gain has the power to change the outcome of my day, all events following the catastrophic news are ruined and I may as well go home and sulk.
This time I decided to do something small about it, instead of sulk in my own misery I decided to blog. Not much I know but it's something at least.
Wedding is on the 3rd of August next year so I have less than 9 months to get down to my ideal weight for the wedding. Can I do it? I hope so or I would hate to think about how I would feel on the day. The worst part is earlier this year I lost a massive chunk of weight and I have gone ahead and put it all back on.
Weight gain has to be a thing of the past! At least I hope I can achieve that.
I hope to have a more positive update next time, first things first though, got to go hide my chocolate stash!
