NIC68
wants to get super fit!
Hello everyone! I'm new to this forum (& my diet) so I thought I'd introduce myself and give you all a bit of history!!
My name's Nic and I'm a single parent of 18yr old twin boys and a daughter who's coming up to 21 in 2 weeks time
Throughout my teens, 20's and 30's i was very slim (between 7 and 8 stone) at 9 months pregnant with my daughter I was just over 9 stone :tear_drop: It all fell apart after a nasty relationship breakup 7 years ago - I lost all my confidence started staying in and comfort eating. How the hell did I let it get this far though.....??? To be honest I've been pretending to myself that it was ok - I was happy, I loved my food and would NEVER give it up because life's for living!?! How wrong was I! The turning point came for me when I was looking through old photos and one of myself and a friend fell out of the album and I looked fantastic! By that i don't just mean thin (I was at the heavy end of my weight scale at that time), I looked HAPPY - I SHONE!! I burst into tears and finally admitted to myself that actually, I HATED been fat. It's robbed me of ME and I want me back!
Phew! Sorry for the life history but it sure does feel good getting it off my chest!
I really want to do this and I know I've only really finished day two (and to honest am starving!) and have such a long way to go but I'm so determined.
So this is it.....bring on day 3!
