Hi, all
I've just joined up with MiniMins, because I'm fed up with being fat
I need to lose as much weight as possible in 8 weeks, because that's when my OH comes home from Afghanistan. I'd like him to see the "real" me, currently hidden under 3 stone of "excess" me
I'm tempted by LL, because a guy I work with, albeit he's based in a different office, used LL last year, before a mega holiday, and lost 7 stone in about 5 months - and he's kept it off !!
Also, there just happens to be a LL consultant in the building where I work, and I have to pass her door twice a day, so there would be no room for excuses ..
I'm 5 foot tall, and currently weigh in at just over 11 stone - eek !!!
I've tried to convince myself that it's my age (just about to hit the big 5 - oh ) and my metabolism slowing down, but it's not - it's comfort eating, and a lack of exercise
What I'm really asking is, is the hype really true - can I lose a lot of weight quickly, and keep it off by being sensible?
I think I would have to do LL Lite to begin with, as I can't commit beyond the next 8 weeks - but will be able to resume after 4 weeks, when the OH goes back out to Afghanistan. Would this be possible, sort of 2 months on, one off, back on for 3 months cycle, until I get to my goal?
Any advice would be gratefully appreciated
Thank you in advance
Linda
