Hello everyone! I am new here... and newly dieting! My name is Kimberley and I am 19 years old. I have 2 children, Emily who is 2 this month and Nathan who has just turned 6 months! I have always battled with my weight. Up until I was 14/15 I was a healthy size 8, but after staying in most nights with OH watching movies and whatever else, I just ate all the time! Out of sheer boredom! I was 13 stone when I fell pregnant with Emily. During pregnancy I went up to 15 stone and two weeks after my c section I weighed myself and I was down to 12 and a half. But again, I was addicted to food! I just kept eating! I was 14 stone when I fell pregnant with Nathan and I gained around a stone. It never came off afterwards! I am now currently 15 and a half stone, and I am now ready to start my diet journey! I go back to college at the end of this month, so I hope by studying and being kept busy during the day I won't have time to even think of gorging on snacks! Right now I am a SAHM and I just can't help but eat! I ordered slim fast shakes and snack bars which came today, and so far so good! I've been on my diet for a couple of days now but now I can proudly say I am on my slim fast diet! Today I had a chocolate flavour slim fast shake for breakfast, which tasted fantastic! I had a strawberry for lunch which wasn't so bad and I've not long had cottage pie for my dinner! I haven't snacks in days and although I know it's for the best and I'm starting to see progress, my stomach is killing me with these hunger pains! I am having no where near as much calories as I usually do! I usually have my three meals + about 500-1,000 in snacks! So going from eating around 3,000 calories a day to around 900 is hard! My stomach rumbles with hunger all day long and I am craving so much chocolate, but I am determined not to give in! Since starting my diet I have been tired, weak, moody and run down. But with the amount of calories I have cut down on it is to be expected! I want to be at least 10 stone, so I have 5stone+ to lose! So far so good!
