I just wanted to do this for anyone struggling and perhaps needing some motivation, i started my cwp journey on the 24.4.12 so im fast approaching my 1 year anniversary!!
On this day i weighed in with my cwp councillor at 15st 6lbs, in 14 weeks id lost 3 stone and was starting to feel great. My original target was to get to 11st 7lbs so with a stone to go i decided to come off of ss and start going up the steps / eat healthily. And i also had a short stop of alternate day dieting and i joined a gym :)
Since christmas i have been going at it alone - trying to eat well, portion control, healthy choices but still of course TREATS!!!! Every saturday i eat what i want, i need this day to focus on or else id totally fail!!!!!
I weigh today 10st 4lbs.
I have lost just over 5stone in 12months and my god i feel a totally different person, yes i had massive struggles, cheating, hair falling out in clumps, feeling low, tired, sick, fed up u name it i felt it!!!
But today i have a balanced diet of high protein, high fibre, veg, fruit, salad (whole foods basically) incorporated with my new found love of excercise!!!
I am getting married in 6months and i know i will be in the best shape i could ever be in on this day. I WILL be happy and confident in myself.
I am testing myself massively in may by running 5k for Race for Life, 1 year ago my bmi was obese and i could barely climp the stairs let alone run 5k!!!!! But im determined to do it.


So everyone just keep going, u can do it - its so worth it my whole life feels amazing and my huge smile tells my whole story. Good luck xxx
