Well, here goes!
I'm getting married on the 24th November, the day after my 22nd birthday. I'm so looking forward to it, but would love to shift the weight that being in love made me put on in the first place!
When I met Joel I was 12 stone. This is by no means slim. But slimmer! Fast forward to 2011, 3 years and a baby later, I'm weighing in at slimming world at a hefty 17 stone. How did I not realise I had gotten do big?
Joel swears he didn't mind, but I did.
Now, I weighed in at slimming world, then the week after returned to find I had gained! So made the jump to weight watchers and I haven't looked back since. By sept 2011 I had gotten down to 14st 5lbs then fell off the wagon. I thought I could do it on my own, without attending meetings, but I do need that kick up the bum of having someone to report to each week!
I returned back to class on the 18th July, and weighed in at 14st 7. Not bad, but in the time I had given up, lots of people had made it to their goal weights (that could have been me!)
So I am starting this diary, two weeks into restarting my plan, to remind myself why I am doing this! Today I weigh 13st 12.5lbs. And with each pound I loose, my self esteem and confidence grows leaps and bounds.
I am doing this for myself. My big day. My beautiful little boy, who deserves to have an amazing mum who can run around with the same seemingly endless energy he has!
I'll check back soon!
