Sad...

Only just found this thread.....last year I'd have been able to say I'm a member of the century club, I lost over 100lbs. However have fallen back into the old ways of eating and put just over 2 stone back on :cry:

Drawing a line in the sand as of today though, will weigh myself later and will never be this weight again! This forum is a fantastic motivational tool, and thank you to everyone on here!

On the plus side, at least you recognized you where putting the weight on and are going to do something about it.

I dont think I totally realised how big I was untill I noticed my wife was buying most of my clothes from a specialist shop

Good luck getting the weight back off.

I know what you mean! Looking at my before and after photos is shocking. I had no idea just how much weight i'd put on and what i really looked like. I think back to what i was like and even looking in the mirror didn't show me the reality of the situation. Only by seeing photos of myself now and comparing them to back them, do i see just how bad things had gotten!

Alan, I know just how you feel, Thankfully i haven't put any weight back on and I'm managing to maintain. as stated the main thing is you've recognised it mate. Get back on track, and when you lost the couple of stone award yourself a century badge. Another thing, post your before's and afters on the success thread, I did see

Morning Alan, how are you this morning. Whereabouts in Kent are you? I lived in Folkestone many years ago as a young teenager newly left home, I worked for Batchelors in Ashford preparing dried soups LOL, I don't even know if they still have a factory there, it was right next to a perfume factory.

I'm near Tunbridge Wells, so right on the Kent / east Sussex border! Not too bad today thanks Jim, starting back on the diet today (again!) and for once feeling positive about it!

 

[Jim]

Good, positivity is half the battle, if you can keep optimistic and positive you're there mate, so much of it's about getting the head right isn't it.
