Hi everyone!
I've been mooching about all week and thought I should sign up and introduce myself. I have -almost- done two weeks on s&s. At my first weigh in I had lost 10.6lbs :happy036:. I'm hoping tomorrows weigh in I'll have reached my first stone. Though unfortunately as amazing as that would be I have a long, long way to go!
I've always been big, but over the last two years I decided that it wasn't being fat that was holding me back as much as how I felt about it so I was going to not diet and try to love the body I was in. Good idea in theory but that didn't work and instead I got to the heaviest I have ever been :sigh: Plus not only do I feel less confident in the way I look physical limitations have started to creep in too.
So far the dieting's been okay... a few of the meal packs I just can't be doing with; like the cheesy pasta and carbonara - even the smell of them makes my stomach curl. I'm liking the shakes though, and I think spag bol with salad is going to be my staple dinner for right now. I'm finding I have a very dry mouth. It feels like I have hair pieces of hair stuck in my throat too.
So... this is me... on my first steps to lose, hopefully, over 100lbs.
