Hello you lovely lot!
I'm Shelly and I have my sister's wedding at the end of summer (August 30th) for which I need to SHIFT this belly. I did Dukan a couple of years ago, and had great results, but I went through a period of stress and binge eating, followed by deciding to train for a marathon, and I lost all motivation for dieting.
But now I'm back and 3 stone heavier. Summer is here and I'm miserable being this heavy again. I feel like I have really let myself down, and I have a wardrobe of beautiful clothes which don't fit me.
So yesterday, I ate my last Easter egg and I am here and determined to do this.
I don't have my statistics yet because I threw my scales out about 6 months ago in a fit of feminist rage (I'm prone to those), but I'm going to buy some more tonight. I think I'm around 12st 4lb, from weighing myself on a friend's scales a week or so ago, but I'm determined to get down to 10st (although anything under 10st 7lb would be lovely right now). Last time I did Dukan I went well under 9st, but I looked quite ill and gaunt, so I don't think I'll go that low.
Really hope that you can cheer me along in this journey, and that I can be of some support to you
