Remember me...? How could you forget? I am the one you always said “I definitely have it here somewhere” as you rummaged through your purse as you felt the queue behind you got bigger and bigger at Slimming World. Do you remember? You do remember me. I was the one you sacrificed a few weeks ago to scrape ice off the car as you hadn’t been to group for a while as you’d too much on with Christmas. I know you remember. What has it been 8,9,10 maybe even 12 weeks? The only time we saw each other since Christmas was when you got me out in Tesco trying to “claim points” on me but the woman handed me back saying that “I wasn’t the right one”. I sat between the bank card and the credit card for ages. Both seemed to be very busy, kept coming back boasting about how much they had spent. I kept thinking why doesn’t she get me out, I only ever cost £4.95 and maybe a few extra £’s for those bars she loves that get squished in this bag with the rest of us. It seems to me that I’m unhappy and you don’t seem as happy as you were when we were going to that group each week. You would pull me out all proud and hand me to the first woman. She then passed me back and you walked to the other queue and then handed me to the other woman, she really seemed to like me – even gave me a tickle and a rub if I wasn’t behaving. She then used to hand me back to you and I used to see that proud smile on your face. Now the children are soon back to school maybe we could hang out a bit more together? I can be your favouritre ‘Chip and pin' whilst you eat chips and get thin! It isn’t easy to start again but a quick blow and a rub and we can start slimming again. I will even make you a little promise. If you leave me somewhere you can see me in your purse or your bag I will be a reminder every time you want to pull out one of ‘those other cards’ for a curry or kebab. So read the words on my face and on my back: “Reach high for the stars lie hidden in your soul – Dream deep for every dream proceeds your goal” Please bring me back to group this week. I want to hear that woman Sinead saying “Enjoy all this free food and aim for 1/3 speed on your plate and forgive yourself for the perils of Easter and the things that you ate!” Take me along, I’m all that you need. You can carry on where you left off or start a fresh... I am not JUST a card, I am the passport to your success! 💖💖

Half a stone off. Here's to the next. Turns out bread and wine ad thd enemy! x #slimmingworld #halfastoneoff
