Hey- my first post but Ive hit a wall and no idea what to do or how to go forward...

In 2012 I weighed in at over 18stone... Gradually with walking more and cutting portions I lost 3 and a half stone- I joined slimming world, and I know it works because I done the plan before, but the most Ive lost since January is 7lbs... I just cannot break past that!!

I lost my mum 5 days before Christmas last year and just finished a college course, being back at work for weird hours Im starting to lose track of food and feel lost!
I got engaged in February and we set the date for 2020 but I dont want to be this size walking down the aisle... 😪

Sorry for the long story but I just dont feel Ive got enough support or the kick up the backside to keep me on track! Help!!

Hi annamarie, welcome to Social Slimmers
I'm sorry about your mum, I know losing a parent is never easy.
Congratulations on the engagement though, that's fantastic!

We've got lots of people here following SW, and even more that will support you

Would it help to post your food diaries on here maybe?
I know you know the plan, but sometimes you may or may not be doing something that you don't realise?

I too lost my mum 2 years ago and I am attorney for my brothers care so the stress has driven my depression and anxiety off the wall. If you search andynev70 on YT I made a video 5 tips for success on SW, we all have tough times but you have the motivation for your wedding, get on Instagram search same name for me or search _sw as most people on SW have that at the end of the name, loads of people post food pics on there, syn values, I found some great things to try I never knew about its a great source of ideas and inspiration, I have over 20 stone to lose so pretty long road ahead so if you need anything just ask #neverquit

We do have a 'Food Dump' on here that has been neglected in the last few months - it was great to be able to 'bin' a food item that was tempting us!
