Hi my name is Clare from Newcastle-upon-Tyne and Im 35, just registered last night as I was impressed by this forum after reading a few posts. Ive come on here really in need of a little support so all messages would be appreciated.
Anyways a bit more about myself, I started my weightloss a year ago after realising I was a size 32 and thought where am I gonna buy clothes from if i continue, My scales said 24st I dont know exactly how much because my scales only registered 24st MAX!! I wanted to cry.. so the challenge began.
Just before Christmas I weighed in at 19st 5 but probably like alot of people I gave myself a week off all those festive treats were screaming at me.. well unlike most people my christmas feast seemed to last too long (well if Im honest 3 weeks ago) I weighed myself 21st 11 GUTTED :cry: so alas my diet and exercise began again and yesterday I weighed myself I was 20st 12 hooray
I would like to set myself a goal to get to 12 stone (what i was before being pregnant with my 16 year old son) but Im not brave enough so for now its a stone at a time. The diet Im using is a low fat/calorie counting one this method for me seems to work. Exercise wise Ive been doing 15min low impact cardio workouts twice per day 6 days per week, Ive now added from today light weights so all n all hopefully 45 mins per day till I feel fitter then I will hopefully be able to add more.
Well thats me thanks for reading looking forward to getting to know some lovely people
