I've decided that when a topic in Image therpy speaks to me i'm going to blog about it, This week as in many groups up and down the country we had quite a few new members, as we did the usual weight talk my consultant asked a few people for their slimmingworld tip.
A few that came out were stay to group, take measurements, don't get disheartened, eat all your syns. This got me thinking what would my top ten tips be, in no particular order.
1. Stay to group - it makes you think back over your week, gives you tips and ideas.
2a. Take a photo at the beggining, you don't have to show anyone if you don't want to. 2b. Keep taking photos These are my 1st pics of 2011, not very flattering but at least i have something other than those bloody scales to chart my progress!
4. Eat lots, don't deprive yourself just because you're going to a slimming club doesn't mean you are restricted in what you can have.
5. Eat a wide varity of food, try new things you might surprise yourself - this was my tea today. Asda Pita Bread 2 x HxB steakm oinions, mushriooms, peppers, carrots, sugersnaps fry light fried in soysauce chilli flakes pinc thia 7 spice and 1 teaspoon of tomato purée (split between 4 portions) Then Apple, Pommergratte and orange
6. Chat to people in group and maybe even add them on facebook swap numbers for that essential midweek support, most of the regulars at my class are all friends on facebook we congratulate each other on success, we boost each other if having a bad week and help with odeas Syn values and other stuff!
7. Log your food, i know the pack gives 4 weeks food diaries ask your consultant for more, buy a book or do what i do- my phone has a virtuial post-it note on the front screen i use that 
9. Do not get disheartened if you haven't lost as much as you were expecting! i truely beleive it will show the next week as long as you don't go wild - how does your body know the exact time and day you weigh in, how does it know to process and burn it all off. surely differnt things burn off at differnt speeeds? i don't know but as long as its a loss its right!
10. This is a silly one but i go into TK Maxx and i pick up the hand weights to the value of what i've lost and see how far i can walk round wityh them (just a note becareful i take no responsibility for anyone doing themselves a mischeif whist following this tip) i took this pic on 4th Jan when my Weight loss stood at 30lbs and i only managed to move them from one shelf to another.
There are many more tips and ui'm sure everyomne has there own, these are just mine and they change all the time.
