Hi all,
Today I have restarted VLCD.
I started LighterLife in January 2008 and lost 9 stone in 6 months before falling off out of sheer boredom.
I then toyed with LL for a bit from time to time and could not get back into it.
I kept the weight off pretty well - I put on about 2 stone in the year after finishing LL and then maintained that for a good while.
Unfortunately Last March I suffered a back problem that has meant that I have been unable (or too worried ) to do any exercise.
I have put on another couple of stone or so in the last year feeling sorry for myself and sitting on my arse.
I have had good intentions to start VLCD again and even bought a load of diet stuff, but with a lot of work and travel recently I had plenty of excuses to not start it.
Today that ended. I am now back on it - using up the packs I have left (plus an order I placed with uk dietworld dotcom for some extra bars as I did not have enough).
I have enough soups shakes and bars for 7 weeks and will see how I get on.
My plan is to then rejoin LighterLife and complete the journey I started in 2008. I want to reach my target (which I came so close to) and then complete Route to Management.
Looking forward to getting back into my medium sized clothes again soon!
