OK I figure I have been on this site to know my way round enough to start my Diary, even though I don't have much more to lose I am away on an all inclusive holiday next week so will be staying on 'cruise' for a few weeks yet!
I gave up smoking 3 years ago and put on 2 1/lb in the process. After 14 months of giving up I joined Weight Watchers and managed to lose a stone and a half of it but then I got stuck, I didn't enjoy W/W as I was always hungry on it and hated all the weighing out and tiny portions (I don't do portions)!
I then tried slimming world but still nothing more came off, then about 3-4 weeks ago I happened to put something on my face book status about going to live on salad and fruit for 6 weeks as I wanted to lose some weight before my holiday on 19th Oct and Tania (Scrumper on here) suggested I try the Dukan Diet, so.....here I am.
I done Attack for 5 days and have been on cruise ever since, my start weight when I came on Dukans was 9 stone 6lb and when I gave up smoking I was 8 stone 10lb so that is my first goal and I was hoping to get there by the time I go on my hols, but as I was already 3lb over weight when I gave up smoking my final goal will be to get to 8 stone 7lb. (I am only 5ft tall by the way) and have always been around the 8 stone mark but with baby carrying and age I am trying to be a bit realistic. I weigh in on Friday mornings and last Friday I was 8 stone 12 so was over the moon.........will I get rid of another 2lb before the 19th? I will certainly try...........then when I come back from my holiday I will start over as I am sure to put on a few pounds.
