Hi everyone.
I start my new weight loss journey with Slim & Save on Monday (23rd February 2015) but I've ordered and tried a fair bit of stock in preparation and I'm chomping at the bit to get going so I thought I'd start my diary now. I would be starting straight away, but I have a big night out on Saturday with food and drink prepaid for so I thought Monday would be a good starting point.
I've had a weight problem since I was 14. I didn't realise it was a problem until I got told so at school () so I went on a diet and lost a stone. That's where it began, I've been on and off a diet ever since. (36 this year) I've had major gains and some big losses, I've been 11 stone and 18 stone (5'9) but I've never maintained at a normal, healthy weight. About ten years ago I lost 7 stone with Weight Watchers and the weight has been creeping on ever since, 2 children later and I find myself at a whopping 14 stone 10 lbs (start weight and measurements to be taken on Monday)
So I've got my 12 initial weeks on Slim and Save to see what I can lose. I'm hoping for a 3 + stone weight loss to take me down to around 11st 7. At this point I will have a birthday night out and want to surprise my friends as I plan to hibernate a bit. I will also have my Mom's 60th and a trip down to London. After the re-feed I might go back on the diet and see if I can crack the 10's.....not been 10st something since I was in my teens.
I'm not silly enough to think this is the solution to it all, I know I'll always have to work on my weight, but I need to give it another push and see if I can crack it again. Hopefully the drop in weight will improve my health, I have PCOS and would like to reduce the symptoms, I'm getting aches and pains just doing the minimum. Also I need a detox from the carbs and alcohol!
My avatar will be 'before' photos.....I've always wanted a great before and after photo! Lets make it happen!!!
