Being on
a diet isn’t always the best way to feel good about yourself, often it can be
really challenging and make you feel down if you aren’t achieving the results
you want to achieve.
However,
for me Slimming World has become about having fun whilst trying to lose weight.
Finding things that you enjoy doing to keep you on track is definitely the way forward.
Slimming
World is very different to the way other diets work as for a start the moment
you walk into group, you are told Slimming World isn’t a diet – it’s a lifestyle
change.
I have
come up with five ways that I use to enjoy Slimming World in other ways than just eating.
Plan
If you
love stationery and getting organised as much as me the Slimming World opens up
new ways to track your food with an abundance of different planning/ tracking organisers.
Often,
Slimming World will give away free four-week planners at the beginning of the year,
but I love using prettier ones that help me stay on track. It’s also a great
distraction from eating. I buy stickers to accompany my organisers.
I have
used the Princess Planning planners in the past which were perfect and absolutely
gorgeous however, this year my boyfriend bought me a gorgeous hard back
organiser from Amelia Lane Paper. This is great because it has literally
everything I need to keep me organised from a monthly planner to a daily to do
list and food tracker. This organiser is a little higher in price though.
Princess
Planning is great too because not only do they look beautiful there are fun
activities you can include within your organiser that are specific to Slimming
World. I am also aware that you can buy Weight Watchers ones if you follow this
plan instead..
Follow
both of these companies on Instagram:

Amelia Lane Paper - @amelialanepaper
Influencers
Some
people don’t always agree that influencers are the best people to follow as
they can have the opposite effect of making you feel good about yourself.
However, I couldn’t disagree more with that statement – following likeminded
people who can give me hints and tips and most of all I can be inspired by
their journeys which leads the way for my own is a great way to engage with
Slimming World.
Often
people share their own thoughts and syn values which can give you meal prep and
snack ideas. I wouldn’t be able to live without following some of these lovely
people on Instagram. Some followers that have really inspired me are:

Cooking
I absolutely
love cooking and cannot live without tasty meals – Slimming World is great because
it offers a range of delicious recipe alternatives. I follow @pinchofnom as
they have created some amazing recipes including KFC Chicken and my absolute
signature dish – carbonara (so tasty).
I also
take inspiration from the Slimming World app, cooking books and the magazine.
Group
I am
so busy that I usually don’t have enough time to stay at group each week
however, I do try and set time aside twice per month to sit at group as it does
help discover new techniques and talk to people that have a similar mindset.
It’s
great to share ideas which is another reason why the influencers online are a great
resource of Slimming World because they give me the get up and go when I can’t attend group.
Countdown
I
absolutely love buying a countdown at Slimming World because it means I have a
focus and I love nothing more than a focus. It also makes me want to go to
group more because I have paid up front for the sessions. My advice here is
always to wait to buy a 12 week count down at times when they are giving away
free books because I just love extra resources. I swear I have so many Slimming
World books now, my book case is about to burst.
