MY TWO WEEK #SLIMFASTCHALLENGE (BEFORE)

I was recently  contacted by the lovely Alexa from Slimfast to try out their two week #SlimFastChallenge 3-2-1 diet plan. The plan consists of 3 snacks, 2 meal replacement bars or shakes, and 1 healthy 600 calorie meal. After a recent holiday, as well as massively overindulging the last couple of weeks I am excited to try out the plan and hopefully shed a few pounds before my next holiday in August. I wear a size 10 currently, but I would love to slim down to an 8. I read on the Slimfast website that they advise a healthy weight loss of around 1-2 pounds per week, but I am hoping to lose a little more than 4lbs!

For breakfast and lunch, you get a choice of a shake or a meal replacement bar. The flavours sound delicious- I am dying to try out the chocolate peanut meal bar and the mocha shake! As a girl with a huge sweet tooth, Slimfast sounds right up my street. In regards to snacks, there is a choice of either a chocolate bar, various savoury snack bags or you can create your own 100 calorie snack. The Slimfast website is packed with snack ideas, from boiled eggs and ryvita, to celery and peanut butter or a small handful of nuts. 

Unlike many other diet plans, Slimfast actually encourages regular exercise, and as I said earlier the website has loads of delicious, healthy meal idea's to keep participants inspired and motivated. I like the way the plan is quite flexible, so I can still eat out as long as I choose a dish from the 'under 500 calories' option, something which more and more restaurants have started to include on their menu. 

I would say I eat pretty healthily anyway, so I don't think I will struggle with putting together my evening meal, in fact after eating sweet treats all day I feel like I am going to be dying for a chicken salad or some veggies!

I will be posting my progress results in two weeks time, and I will be tweeting/snapchatting/instagramming my journey along the way! Keep up with me at:
