Success stories
"I achieved my goal and looked pretty good (even if I do say
so myself!) as a bridesmaid."
Jo, Bristol, 31
I was asked to be a bridesmaid for my sister's wedding. I didn't
have a huge goal but wanted to feel happy in my dress and having
done Special K 2 week kick start in the past
thought it might be the way to go. My weakness was skipping
breakfast when I was in a rush and snacking on rubbish and the kids
leftovers throughout the day.
I think the key was preparation and I made sure I had time for
breakfast and had snacks (they say you can eat fruit) in my bag.
The evening meal was fine - it was the kind of foods I tended to
eat anyway but the big thing for me was reducing the snacking
between meals and being more aware of what I ate. At the weekend I
swapped around my 3rd meal to lunchtime and ate cereal in the
evening.
I achieved my goal and looked pretty good (even if I do say so
myself!) as a bridesmaid.
