I first started doing WW April 10 2013.
In the weeks that followed, up to July 18 2013, I got from 12st5 to my goal at 10st, losing 33lbs using a combination of propoints and continuously being down the gym.
However, October came and the gym switched about their gym class schedule and I was no longer able to attend the classes I enjoyed due to work commitments.
And that's when the creep started appearing.
Christmas started at the beginning of November for me, and didn't seem to finish until the end of January when I finally got back on the WW meeting scales and weighed in at 10st5. Not too bad I suppose.
However, the eating didn't stop.
Despite trying to be "good", I spent at least 10 times more time being "bad". For every "good" day, there were at least 10 "bad" days following.
Last week was the final straw.
I went away on holiday to Butlins with my boyfriend, and boy did I enjoy it. But there was a LOT of food involved. Including a day at the Butlins dinner buffet where I ate a plate of pasta & meatballs, followed by fish, chips & beans AND THEN a jacket potato with cheese & beans.
And as if that wasn't enough, I followed it up with a huge bowl of cherry bakewell sponge & custard.
I ended up waddling out of the restaurant and spent at least 2 hours lying down, extremely uncomfortable, trying to stop myself from having to throw it all up to make myself feel better.
Holiday ended friday, went out clubbing friday and saturday nights with my friends for my best friend's birthday and resolved to start afresh monday.
I weighed myself yesterday and I was 69.3kg - working out at 152.8lbs.
That's 10st12. That's 12lbs over my goal weight
So here I am...
Pledging to get that, and more off.
I'd like to hit 9st this summer.
Ideally, I'd like that to be by July 18th (my 1 year anniversary at goal, which is also my birthday).
However, at just 9 weeks away, losing 26lbs is a bit of a push.
But that's the goal I'm going to aim for.
It really helped me being on these forums last time round, so I'm hoping I'll be able to do well again this time, hopefully with the support of you like minded people.
I've put this into the food diaries rather than weight loss diaries because I'm hoping to keep track of my food on here.
I have to write it down or I go off track. Also, not sure how tracking online will work because I work better with pen and paper, but I'm having issues with notebooks atm because I just can't seem to want to write in them as I'm scared of it being scruffy, so I end up writing one page, then tearing it out and making it neat and blank again =/
Right... that's enough rambling on this post.
Time to set some mini goals and get my food intake out in the open.
