Hello!

I'm new here, and new to slimming world (I've been doing it now for about 4 weeks)

I had a great first week on SW, then I think I got over-confident, and tried success express and mix2max, and I think I got all confused, and subsequently fell off the wagon when I gained 3lbs my 2nd week!!! Week 3 and 4 were a total catastrophe, and so now I'm hoping to really start at this, and stick with it. I'm going back to the basics though, no more success express for me for awhile!!!

I'm also a new mom of a 6.5 month old little boy, and I'm still bf-ing. I'm hoping to lose 30lbs total: 15lbs of baby weight, and 15lbs that I always wished I could lose even before becomming pregnant. So, fingers crossed, this is my goal!

I'm so glad I found this site, it seems very informative already, and can't wait to check out all the cool options.

Andrea

Good morning,
Well done on being brave and trying SE and M2M I havent yet, I like keeping it simple Smile
SW works. I'm sure you'll get the support you need here and you'll be recording those weight losses next week.
Start a food diary thread and the food diary monitors come along and see how you're doing, giving tips and support too.

Good Luck.

hiya Andrea and welcometogroup

I think most consultants advise those who are new to the plan to stick to Green and Original days until they are 100% confident with how they work, before trying SE or M2M. It might be worth doing that for a bit.

Have a look through the food diaries and maybe start one of your own...you'll always get feedback. xx

welcomegroup Andrea!

I'm also breastfeeding my DS2, and I love SW for allowing me to feed myself and my baby healthily whist losing weight. Are you having your additional HEs? Make sure you do! Breastfeeding mums are allowed more HEs (depending on how old the LO is, and what stage of weaning baby is at). Give us a shout if you need help, and ask your consultant for the leaflet on breastfeeding.
