So for anyone who has been following me on instagram or my previous blogs you will know previously I haven’t really followed a diet, I just tried to eat well and stay active. Although this worked for the most part I found myself slipping occasionally, especially when it came to treating myself. I’d already started thinking about joining Weight Watchers as my close friends at uni are on it, and have been doing really well, so when it popped up on Groupon I couldn’t say no!
I’m now 5 weeks in and according to my scales (although rather temperamental!) I have lost 10lbs, and I’m classing that as a good result!!
I always get a bit scared following weightloss programs as sometimes they can be really hard to follow, and I tend to drop out after the first month or so. I have, however, been pleasantly surprised with Weight Watchers! It’s much easier than I thought, and I don’t feel as restricted as I normally do with these things. I can have treats, and go out for meals, and not feel guilty whilst still seeing the number go down on my scales! I’ve found myself eating much more fruit and veg and enjoying trying new, healthier foods.
One thing I’ve found that has really helped is doing a meal plan at the beginning of the week, and keeping track of my points, but I’ll talk about that in another blog!
If your thinking about starting Weight Watchers I would definitely say give it a go, even if its just for a trial period, and see how far you can get. I’m grateful my friends gave me the idea of joining as I’m now closer to my goal weight than I have ever been!
