I'm overweight

[RachelN76]

As of today, my BMI (which I know isn't everything) is now 29.8. Which makes me overweight rather than obese!!!
I'm also now a size 14 on the bottoms - but still a 16 on top because of my huge boobies.

My weight loss has slowed down a bit recently, but I've been a bit lazy and not been to the gym as much as I should have, so that's probably why.

And although i'm in the SlimFast forum, I'm not actually having SlimFast at the moment. I cut down to one a day, and started having home made muesli for breakfast because i wanted to introduce food gradually rather than all at once. And rather than Slimfast, I'm having a Diet Whey shake from PhD Nutrition, because i wanted something with more protein and fewer carbs. Plus they do a chocolate orange flavour which is really yummy.

But this is the longest that I've ever, ever stuck to any kind of diet and exercise plan, so something must be working!

wow well done you
i remember when i went from obese to overweight. such a great feeling.
i some times (would say 2/3 times a week) only have the one shake a day and i am doing the low carb slim fast. i think having a standard one shake a day for brekfast is a great maintence plan when we get to goal!
keep up the good work

Thank you everyone! I definitely do feel a lot better. I'd lost a bit of motivation the last couple of weeks, but I've had a good rest this weekend and feel as though i'm now back on track.

I've discovered that it's so much easier when you're not really tired! If I get tired, I'm definitely more likely to want to eat junk in the evenings.
