Transforming my Weight Loss with Slimming World Fast Forward Plan

by Feb 17, 2022Slimming World0 comments

This is day three of my Slimming World Fast Forward Plan.

It was a miserable, horrible day yesterday (13 February 2022). The day you sit inside, turn the TV on and cosy on down with a TV box set and munching a bag of Maltesers or Haribo.  That will not happen, much to my disappointment. I am still strongly resounded to stay on plan and reach my one-week weight loss goal. As always, my personal goal is to keep going, focus on my successes, and learn from failures. Taking each new day and weight loss with grace and… who am I kidding? I want to lose 7 pounds this week.  I have stagnated on my weight loss journey, so my consultant suggested the Slimming World Fast Forward Plan. The current numbers are therefore looking good. It seems to work.

Now The downside of the Fast Forward Plan so far.

It was Sunday yesterday, which means roast dinner was sitting around the dining room table with the family. The Slimming World Fast Forward Plan accommodates a roast but is a very sad roast.

  • 100g roast chicken, without skin
  • 175g potatoes boiled or mashed
  • 70g carrots
  • 75g Savoy cabbage
  • 75g cauliflower florets
  • Free option of 150g of broccoli

I have to tell you. It’s not a lot when it’s on the plate. Especially as the rest of the family had big juicy roast potatoes cooked with the chicken and a mountain of vegetables and gravy. I don’t enjoy being on a diet. The benefits of being on plan and losing weight are the goals. However, sometimes I have to question if it is worth it. I don’t want to be on a diet for the rest of my life, and watching my family eat a full meal while I consumed a tiny portion of it seemed so unfair.

I heard a quote a while ago from Tony Robbins, “Nothing tastes as good as slim feels”. As I eat my small meal, I think about these words.

Slimming world and the family

Most of our meals are home-cooked and adapted to Slimming World menus.  My family is very supportive.  We cook with Fry-light, have increased our fruit and vegetable intake.  We only have low-calorie treats in the house.  The Bliss Bars are a big hit, and only 3 syns each. The salted caramel bliss bars are a big hit in my household. It is like a marathon without nuts.

Am I still enjoying the plan?

Yes, I have to say I am. I have learnt that I have steadily increased my portion sizes without realising it on my regular slimming world eating plan. I have also not included the odd Syn, for example, gravy on my dinner or tomato ketchup on the Friday Fakeaway days.

So, onwards and upwards to Day Four
