    its not the end of healthy eating, but ive got where i want to be

    Its been a very difficult journey, ive had pleanty of ups and downs.

    My other half was sick of me going on about my diet, he knew i had lost abit of weight but hadnt realise how much, the last time i had weighed myself in front of him was in may when i was over 14 stone, he's stayed a constant 12 stone which is still in his normal bmi zone, his eyes popped out of his head when he realised i was 10 stone 10, he doesnt have to worry about putting weight on so couldnt understand why i was focussed.

    I know its very hard to keep the weight off. But for the first time i feel ready to face that battle as i now understand what a healthy attitude to diet and excersize can do to your body.

    I truly couldnt have done it without minimins, im not going to dissapear as i think i still need minimins and hope to be able to inspire and help others to reach there goal.

    thankyou

    Thanks you so much, any amount will be more than they had before, so even 1euro would be amazing. Thanks again xxx



    CALORIES TO AIM FOR EACH DAY = NET1829 Cals - (eat back my exercise calories on top of this)/my NET is now 1560 till I get 4lb off again
    BMR = 1468.7 - never eat under (leads to muscle being used for energy/starvation mode)
    TDEE= 2266 - don't go above

    Great stuff and now of course the fight to maintain kicks in, that can be harder than the diet. Good luck and I hope you manage maint.
