Hey everyone
So I have posted a few times on here but I suppose the time has come to start my diary.
I initially did the Cambridge in 2013 and got to target weight, however due to me (nobody else) over the course of 2014 I gained it back.
In 2013 I started at 15st 9lbs and weird but true this time around I am 15st 9lbs!!
Anyway this time around I have decided to go though the steps back to maintenance rather than getting to target and then going back to old habits, stresses in life making me use food as a comfort blah blah blah you know the speel.
After the maintenance steps I intend to follow weight watchers as I Understand that for the rest of my life I need to track and follow a programme.
I wasn't always overweight, I was always physically fit was in the forces and ran up to 7 miles per day.
This changed when I had my 1st child I was extremely ill and I had no energy hence banged on the weight.
Obviously a child changes everything and no time for yourself ends up becoming the norm!!
During my 2nd pregnancy I had SPD which literally crippled me - my 87yr old nan was able to move about better than me
A combination of life difficulties - separation, having to move etc just put me on a downward spiral and food was my emotional saviour.
Anyway that's a little bit about why I am here and doing what I am doing.
The last time I was on the plan this forum motivated me enormously and I hope to 1. Keep motivated and 2. Keep others motivated.
I have put some pictures on I think curvie's thread to show what I was in 2013, what I was at target and how I have gone back
Having done this the 1st time it is true when people say it's hard to restart as you actually know what you are going to be doing again - a bit like learning your pregnant than thinking about labour lol....
I actually think once you get the mind focus it doesn't matter if it is the 1st time or the 2nd - just learn from mistakes to why you are here again and have a plan in place.
I started on the 27th December 2015 as that's when all my festivities were done and I mentally prepared and etched the date on my brain - anything I wanted or craved I had before I started.
The past 4/5 days have been OK apart from yesterday where I felt pants everything ached from my ear to toes and especially my teeth - weird and I was extremely emotional felt like crying at any given moment and I had insomnia plus thirst!! Oh yeah was great lol.
I want to get all these crap feelings out before I go to work on Monday .
Anyway think I have rambled on enough for this post!!
My next weigh in will be Tuesday and I have decided to weigh myself only the once by my consultant weekly.
I have 75lbs to lose, who's with me
