November challenge

[anj_i_am]

My go!!!!

Name: Angela. Anj for short. Or Flange (long story).

Age: 27 again (officially 28 last week)

Hometown: Northampton

Occupation: Mobile phone Queen (I'm Assistant Manager for a well known phone company).

Weight loss: started at 14st 3lbs, now 11st 12.5lbs - total loss 32.5lbs, 17.5lbs to go.

Favourite food: I am a carb fiend. And spicy stuff. Nom!

Least favourite food: Raw tomatoes. And aubergine. Bleugh!

Five reasons
I joined ww because some vile boy at work kept making fat comments about me and he and his friends were referring to me as the 'fat one'. I actually dont have any reasons for losing weight as such. It just upset me so much that he would say that and I didnt want to be upset any more. I guess I want to stick two fingers up at him.
Its a really rubbish reason, and even know I dont really have any 'right' reasons for losing weight. But I am glad I am doing it, and im happy i've met you lot too.

I'm new to all this but could somebody add me too. Hoping to lose 8lbs this month.

Motivation:
1. Sick of cancelling meeting up with people as I feel tubby and waiting till I lose a few pounds, which never happens. It has become ridiculous. 2. Lack of confidence and constantly comparing myself to skinnier girls.
3. Want to be able to wear whatever I want and not have bulges.

[Angem]

Name: Ange or Angie
Age: 51 (ouch)
Location: Barrow in Furness, Cumbria

Occupation: Housing Benefit Overpayment Officer (double ouch)

Weight Loss so far: 21lb in 9 wks.

Fav food: Indian and anything spicy oh and japanese

Least fav food: Not too sure about this one really so I will say tinned sphagetti in tomato sauce

5 reasons to lose weight:
I had a heart attack 3 years ago, out of the blue and although i have more or less been given the all clear I am still wary about it happening again.
To be here for my kids and watch my 2 grandchildren grow up.
To fit into nice slim fitting clothes
Hopefully if I lose all my weight it will give both my son and daughter some incentive to do the same
And most of all just to be healthy fit and feel happy in my own body
