Hi, My name is Ryan, I'm 23 and I have a weight problem.
I thought I would start a diary after I started reading dave's.
Like Dave I have tried lots of different diets but sticking to them is the bug bear, I tend to be able to stick to a diet for a week / 2 weeks and then it all falls by the waist side. ( Celebrity slim / Scottish Slimmers / Weight watchers. )
My cousins partner recommended slimming world to me because all she can do is talk about how good the chips are and that they are free.
So I started 3 days ago sitting at 20 st 5, I also had a doctors appointment because my mum is worried about me ( as they do ) because heart attacks run in my family.. ( I lost both of my grand dads to heart attacks at young ages )
I think I just need help more than anything, I think with most diets I tended to eat the same sort of stuff ( same fruit etc ) and then got bored of it then just started tucking into biscuits etc...
So it begins... Started 3 days ago and seem to be doing ok, still not sure of the in's and out's of the diet but im getting there. Had the chips for the first time last night and they were really nice.
I also made spag bol with quorn mince and that seems to fill me right up and I don't seem to feel the need for anything else.
Fruit pastels are my syn of choice!
I am going to cheat and weight myself today.. Just so I can keep a track of what i'm doing on here.
Currently sitting at - 19st 10, just after lunch and fully clothed.
Also hoping that this is going to be my motivation to stick to it and not let it just whittle away like the rest of them!
I look forward to hearing from any of you and to keep in touch.
Ryan
