It is only 3 months till Sarah’s wedding, at which I am a bridesmaid. I want to look good in general, but I also want to look good for this special day!! There’s nothing worse then ugly looking bridesmaids to ruin your wedding photos!

I’ve been doing Weight Watchers for AGES now, and in the count down to my own wedding I lost quite a bit of weight, and have slowly put it back on (mind you, the I only lost like 4 kilos, and that’s all I’ve put back on 9 months after the event). At WW (weight watchers) there are two plans, the points plan, where you count how many points you eat each day, and the core plan, where you can eat as much as you want- as long as you don’t over fill yourself, but only from a list of certain foods.

I’ve been on the points plan this whole time, but finally spoke to my leader, Cathleen, about what I can do to actually LOOSE some weight,  not just stick on this one weight. So she suggested changing plans- because I’m unsure of what I’m able to eat, I’m more likely to only eat the right things, and not just assume that I can eat something.

So I’m starting on the core plan today. So far it hasn’t gone all that well because today is Wednesday and I get a free lunch at work. Usually it’s just salad rolls, so I can just have a salad without the roll, but today it was fajitas. Luckily you get 21 points to use in the week ON TOP of your core foods. So I guess I will just put it into that!!

I’m also starting the etools thing, which is tracking online, and you can also put your recipies into it, and it will tell you how much a serve of it is!! Which I think is pretty cool.
