Well I thought a diary might help me focus some more, although I apologise if I have posted this in the wrong place (it's all new too me!)
I am a classic yoyo dieter. I've battled with my weight and body issues since forever. In January I weighed In at 15st. I decided I needed to do something given my sisters wedding was just 6 months away and my fertility appointment was 5 months away and I'm fed up of being told its because I'm fat that I can't conceive! Grrr
I chose to try the Cambridge diet. The first week I sailed through and lost 6lb, I did a further week on CD but then stopped and decided I could continue alone on a high protein low carb diet.
I managed to get myself down to 13st doing this, then got complacent and ate myself up another 10lb in the space of 3-4 weeks. So here I am again back on Cambridge and I'm on day 6. Really struggling this time even though my scales are happily showing an 8lb loss already.
I haven't caved and eaten anything, because I'm not physically hungry. It's the mental barrier I'm trying to pass. I feel better today than I did yesterday which is helping!
I can honestly say Cambridge really works for me. I tried slimming world I tried WW and I just didn't have the willpower to stop eating and cheating myself.
I'm currently a size 16, and I'd like to be a size 12 for the summer. I have pcos and type 2 diabetes brought on by my bad diet. And I know if I lose just 5kg of body weight my symptoms will ease significantly!
My first goal is by 7th may I weigh around 12st 7lbs.
My second goal is by June 16th I weigh 11st 13lbs.
My eventual goal is to weigh 9st 7lbs.
I am hoping and praying god gives me the strength to finally see this through and show my family I can weigh 9st 7lb and I will be happier healthier and a brand new confident person.
I am constantly being told "your not meant to be skinny, your big boned"
I will update after my weigh in on Monday. I'm hoping for the 8lb loss but will be mega thrilled with anymore than that!
Thanks for taking the time to read my diary
