So, so far I'm on day 9 and doing well (at least I think I am!)
Bit about me, I'm Laura, 27 and a stay at home Mummy to my beautiful Keira who is 3 (4 in 4 weeks!) and cheeky Finley who is 2.
Been with Ian for 12 and a half years now! We were each others 1st love and its amazing we're still together and in love even after we were told it would never work! I was a size 12 when I met Ian and 9 and a half stone...what I wouldn't do to get back there!
I've always struggled with my weight :cry: As a child my Mum suffered from anorexia and bulimia and I watched her go through it. It has affected me big time but I've gone the other way and couldn't stop eating. At 10yrs old I'd binge in secret on chocolate, crisps etc etc as nothing like that was allowed in our house. I do feel a bit of a food addict if there is such a thing?? But I can't go on like this. I've tried so many diets, lost good amounts of weight but always piled it all back on then some more.
Well NO MORE!!! Went to my docs before Xmas and broke down. He prescribed me my little policeman tablets and its onwards and 'downwards' from here on!!
I want to do this for 1) ME!! I wanna be proud of me and walk into a shop and know any size 12 will fit!
2) For my children! I want them to be proud of their Mummy! Spesh Keira, I don't want her having the hangups I have from my Mum.
3) For Ian, I want him to feel proud (not that he doesn't now) of me!
4) We've been engaged for over a year now and I WILL NOT set a date until I have lost this weight. I will NOT regret my wedding pics!
Right, anyway, managed to loose 4.5lbs in my 1st week...with hardly any exercise so this week I intened to get exercising!
Good luck all...sorry for the rambling!!
