Hi everyone!
Lovely to join you all again! I'm by no means new to calorie counting or dieting for that matter!
But the last 2 years have been horrendous when it comes to diets - I've been losing 2lb, gaining 1, losing 3, gaining 2 etc. I don't think my heads been with it. Been blaming having 3 kids, getting married and whatever else. Which has got to stop!
I cut out all carbs (bad ones anyway like pasta, bread, sugars etc) last Friday and started at 17st 3lb I am currently at 16st 8lb! Lost 8lb by cutting out naughty carbs and calorie counting.
So here I am - I was too embarrassed to come here for a while as I had started way too many diaries. But I've been sticking to my routine for over a week - and when it comes to me - that's a huge achievement! It's all thanks to low carbing - I have no cravings, I only eat when I'm hungry and barely snack! Which feels wonderful - nice to be in control of food again!
So as well as low carbing, I am calorie counting (I use MFP) and I will also be zig zagging my calories
Anyway, just wanted to say I have a diary in the diary section - I have a lot to lose and I'm looking for buddies and chit chat to keep me distracted and determined until I get to my goal!
Nice to meet you all! X
