Hi Everyone.
I have been overweight for as long as I can remember and have been on every single diet on this planet but always gave up.
Over the years I have gotten bigger and bigger and although believe it or not, I am not at my heaviest right now, I am pretty close.
I know the CD works, I have done it in the past but the longest run was for my first time when I lasted eight weeks. That was seven years ago and every time I have tried it since I didn't make it past the first week
I really want to do it this time. I'm off on holiday at the end of August and there will be a pool and beach etc and I do not want to stand at the sidelines again while the children and DH enjoy themselves. I want to be there with them having fun and not worrying so much about my weight or thinking that every single person is looking at me with disgust.
I know I will still be overweight come August, but the boost to my self esteem and the fact that a few stone really makes a difference will make things much easier for me.
So, here I am. I really really hope I can make it past day one. It's 4pm and so far so good (although the thought of throwing in the towel and starting again tomorrow has crossed my mind, which it ALWAYS does) this time I will stick it out.
I am going to start a diary on here in the hope that it will spur me on and keep me on track.
Oh will you look at me rambling on (there's a few minutes of your life you'll never get back eh? lol)
I reckon this place will really help keep me on track!
