I have heard people say 'Weight Watchers is a diet' No its a lifestyle you can still eat what you want and lose weight at the same time but you cant be silly about it and you cant cheat the only person your cheating is yourself. Here is a few reasons why I started
About two and a half months ago I split up from my boyfriend and because I still respect him I wont go into why we broke up as I don't feel like I need to air my dirty laundry in public so id like to keep that part of my life out of the blogging world, However not long after we broke up I decided that I would try and lose some of the weight I put on while we were together. I was watching a video on Youtube when a advert popped up about joining Weight Watchers for £10 your first month. I had joined weight watchers when I was about 16 and lost weight but at that time when I was eating wasn't staying in my stomach and I was bringing everything back up. But over the years I have always struggled with my weight I was never the slim girl at school but always the fat one...I mean I was never the fattest at school I must of been about a size 14 when I was at school but after leaving and getting into my first serious relationship I put on about 2 stone taking me up to about a size 18 and I was miserable, after that relationship I got my head down and started training harder then ever getting myself back down to a size 16.. but as ive said over the years my weight has been my biggest struggle, I would lose 10 pounds think it was good and then put it all back on when someone said how good do you look. This time my weight is coming off slowly and surely. I am so far away from my goal weight but I will never stop trying until I am at the weight I want to be. So far I have lost 18 pounds and it is all down to the help of the weight watchers app I mean yes some weeks ive stayed the same but I've still managed to lose weight the next.
I would recommend maybe planning your meals before hand so you can track just how may points you have a day, the one thing you can eat as much as you want of is fruit and vegetables. As I'm not very confident I have done a before picture of what my body was like but if some of you reading this know me you will know what it was like before and now.
I think that maybe once I've lost this next few pounds so that I have two stone off I will post a picture of what my body looks like so far. As far as weight is concerned I have been a massive difference in my hips, bust, stomach and back! My back fat has been on of the things that I have been trying so hard to lose that as I don't like people looking at my back when Im in the gym. Some of you are probably thinking why do you care what people in the gym think about you? in a way I don't but at the same time I don't want the big ' gorillas' as I like to call them looking at me thinking I don't know what I'm doing.. its okay chicken legs I know what I'm doing do you? if like me you don't really like doing the free weight when the big guys are in why don't you take your weight over to a mat or an area that they cant see and do I there? Weight lifting is also good for losing weight as you burn more calories...yes do cardio but focus on weight training, healthy eating and drinking loads of water.
I feel like this blog has been a wee bit of a ramble....in my next blog I will be talking about sex. Don't worry im not going to tell you who ive slept with and how many ive slept with but I will talk about what its like in the lead up to sex with your boyfriend and if some guys read this for your girlfriend so you know what their going through.
So until next time stay beautiful
