Hi all,
I am starting lighter life in March. Going to see the councellor today and have delayed start because I won a skiing holiday for a week on 11 Mch so didnt think it would be a good idea to start until I got back. Partly cos skiing is so physical & I wasnt sure how I'd do on 500 cals a day and also because the food looks delicious..and its free yummy food!!
Anyway...just wondered if anyone else is starting in Mch so we can support each other along the way. I'm under no illusion that its going to be tough but also feel that now is the time to go for it. I gave up smoking after 21 years in Jan and feel if I can do that....
A brief intro..am 37, 5ft nowt & weigh 15 stone. I hope to be the same or a bit less by the time I start & am trying not to eat everything in sight in the knowledge that I wont be able to eat at all! Also looking forward to the CBT & being amongst others who know how it feels to feel like this...!
Meanwhile researcing all I can and trying to get organised (ie clear the house of food!) and planning ahead. ANyone else out there starting in Mch? I'll be starting as close as I can past 17th...
