Hi,
My name is Dee, I'm 30 years old, a wife and mother and a repeat dieter. I've tried so many times in the past to lose weight, I'd manage to drop maybe 5 or 10lbs and then just....go back to my old habits and every time I'd put back on that 10lbs lost plus another 10lbs on top. So now I have a LOT to lose. However, I'm making good progress. As of this morning I have lost 34.4 lbs mostly through just cutting out sugar and junk food but more recently I've lost 7.5lbs from calorie counting and light exercise.
I've been working really hard at not seeing this as a diet but an entire change to my life style. I've started adding 30 minutes of exercise in to my day - low impact aerobics, walking and yoga. I've started drinking loads more water and putting aside the fizzy drinks and I've started swapping out high calorie and fat foods for tasty and healthier alternatives. I plan to go all the way this time and reach my goal weight!
