I'm happy to finally be a WISH newbie

[Fantasia Sam]

Well I've been back from WDW 2 weeks now and have been working up to my first day of starting my weight loss programme.

I'm quite upbeat about it. My first goal is to lose 15 pounds and see where I go from there.

I joined a health club before I went on vacation in preparation and attended a couple of Aqua classes before our trip to WDW.

My chosen diet is Slimming World as it has worked for me in the past.

I've been lurking here and see so much motivation that I know I can lose the weight espeically with you guys helping on the way.

Hi Sam!!! Welcome to WISH. It's great to see you. Have no fear that you will get tons of support and encouragement here.

Remember the shorts from December? Well I can report to you that mine don't fit anymore, way tooooooo big! All the wishers have helped my in my quest for better health through better eating and lower weight. You'll fit right in.

As our friend Katholyn says, onward and downward.

Hi Sam

[Fantasia Sam]

Kath, you're a sweetheart as usual

Hello everyone it's so GREAT to see so many of my old friends here and make some new, I love making new friends

Although it has made me a little sad that I haven't kept in touch as well as I should have where does the time go ???


TigH - I posted on the Challenge thread the jist of what Slimming World is all about - let me know if you, or anyone else for that matter wants more info on it. It's a great diet for those that just can't give up "Carb" but don't want to weigh foods. I'm a little "piggy troughy Sammy" and I love to just pig out on food and this diet really helps me do that and feel good about it at the same time LOL

I'm still trying to get over just how upbeat I ma about being on a weight loss programme - surely this isn't normal ?

Sam, there is another new WISHer who belongs to Slimming World, Dimplenose. She is in Surry, is that near you?

Can you tell I know nothing about UK geography? Not a very goo honorary Brit, am I?

 

[Princess Michelle]

Welcome Sam! We are so glad you decided to join us!

 

[Fantasia Sam]

Kath - yes Surrey is near me and it's good to hear of another fellow Slimming World buddy
