Well, here I am, tail between my legs........can I come back pleeeeeease???
After losing almost five stones on my own for my wedding last August, I gained a few pounds so decided to join minimims..........then had lots of problems, family, work, redundancy, another redundancy, poorly mother in law, money......I could go on but wouldn't want to bore you.........anyway, after gaining even more weight, I have decided to take action and lose the weight I gained plus some more. I have set Monday 20th June as my start date for a couple of reasons, one we don't have any pennies for shopping until the weekend and it also gives me the rest of the week to finish celebrating my 40th birthday! I don't think I will be able to afford to go to class, so you lot are the next best thing!!
So here's the figures:-
Start weight (previous) around 18 & half stone
Lowest (wedding day aug 2010) 13 stone 4 lb
Now (hanging head in shame) almost 15 stone
Target around 12 ish (we'll see if that's right when I get there)
Have written down loads of recipes and meal ideas, will be making a shopping list tonight and have even made my own food diary to put on the fridge. Will probably do mostly red days as I have PCOS and green days and carbs play havoc with me. May throw in the odd EE as that will give me a little more flexibility when I will need it.
Loads of fantastic threads, pictures and tips on here, I'm glad I've come back!
Look forward to chatting with you all soon
