So heres a brief (well as brief as I can keep it!) look at my story so far.
Im Sammy and Im 28, on my last weigh in I was 13 stone 5.5lbs. I've been a yo-yo dieter since I was a young teen, went from a chubby teen to anorexic, got over that and slowly got back to a healthy weight, stayed around the 8 and a half - 9 stone bracket for a few years and then after I turned 21 the weight started to creep back on, I was around 11 and a half stone - 12stone for a few years then WHAM, on came the pounds at an alarming rate! I was gaining nearly a stone a year!
I would do some fad diet for a few weeks or a month, lose a bit of weight, then give up, put the weight I had lost, plus more on and thats how it went for the next few years until in May of this year I got on the scales (that I had been dodging doing for god knows how long!) and I was 1/4 of a pound off of 16 stone, I knew I had to do something then, as my weight was just getting out of control, so on May the 25th I started the Tony Ferguson diet and have lost just over 2 and a half stone since then, but the weight loss has slowed and I think I needed something to give me a kick up the bum to get the weight loss started again, saw people talking about Exante and was amazed at the weight loss people were having, so I ordered the bumper pack which came today! I am going to do my final weigh in on TF tomorrow and start Exante tomorrow.
My overal goal is to get to my target weight of 9 and a half stone within a year of starting my dieting journey, which will be May the 25th 2011.
My shorter term goal is to reach 12 stone by christmas, 19lbs to go to do that but if I could lose 2 stone or more, that would be amazing as it would put me at the lightest weight I have been for the last 5 Christmas's. I also turn 29 just before Christmas so it would be fab to not feel as fat and ugly as I felt when I turned 28!
So thats my story so far, hopefully I can get updating with some great weight loses like I see most people on here posting!
