Well I am back. New country this time. Now I live in Dubai. Lost my Mum to cancer last July and my weight just rocketed. Finally looked at my pictures from my holiday and what the scales said, and thought you are out of control.
I was 320lbs when I started Cambridge this time. Never in my life, did I think I was ever going to weigh as much. I was always a big girl, but I was tall and I could sometimes get away with carrying it well. Not any more. My lower back is killing me, my arms are enormous. I'm size 22 (UK), but I would love to be back to a 14/16.
Today at weight in, I was 307lbs.
I remember being certain weights: 294,280, 273, 266, 258.
Those will be my first markers.
I am returning to the UK from Dubai in July and the UK does judge fat people much more than Dubai, so I want to do it for that, and of course, I want to feel free!
I know my Mum would want me to succeed at this.
Its been hard - one day, 6 babybel found its way into my trolley when I only went in for water and sweetener tablets for my tea, but I am DETERMINED to succeed. I want to lose 5 stone by the time I go home in July. I am going to keep going.
I am very on my own here in Dubai, and love reading everyones story here. I am so glad that this forum is here, and hopefully will make some friends along the way!
Lots of love to all of us!
