Hi Everyone
I thought it would help me to keep a diary of my lighter life journey, and also a good way for me to say hello to fellow 'lighter lifers'. I have a long history of weight gain and weight loss and have probably lost the same four stone at least five times. In 2006 i had a gastric band and lost 6.5 stone over a year. I kept the weight off but never got to my goal weight. In 2008 my little boy died aged 5 years and i put on two stone. I am now left with nearly four stone to lose. I have tried cambridge before but think i need the support and the counselling. The band was good and i would do it again like a shot, but i believe they only work for a certain period and then your body gets used to the small quantities. My band has also slipped so its now in the wrong place as well.
I got my food packs last night and have had porridge this morning. I am determined but also slightly scared of failure. I will update this diary with how i am doing and feeling and think it might help me. I am 40 this year and want to be at my goal weight by then.
Any way, hello to everyone and i hope to read your diaries and posts soon.
