Hi,
Many people reading this would possibly think that at 13st that i have little to complain about or struggle with weight wise. I however am desperate to get down to a much healthier weight.
This is for several reasons...but mainly because i have gained weight whilst being at university...i have medical problems which remain easier to deal with when my weight is lower and doctors are much more willing to treat it without the messages of 'losing weight will take the strain off of this joint'...and also becuase physically i do not like my apperance (i am a 32G, come down from a 32H but its still not comfortable to be this large uptop).
I have lost a small about of weight...all of 6lb but am struggling to lose anymore. I am unable to get to the gym because during term time i have to work 17 hours a week and attend univeristy and fit in all my voluntary work, the possibilty of evening courses starting in september.
I am aiming to cut the amount that i eat over time, by about half. I eat alot! Also, i have a Wii Fit and i aim to remain active using this.
So my over all aims....and there appear to be a few is to get active, cut my eating, to be able to lose weight. But, which is key....to fit this into a student lifestyle and budget.
My family, whom i am close to are unaware of my attempts as they do not know how strongly i feel about my weight. My brothers are al muscular and my elder sister is a Size 4 or 6. Im a size 14 to 16 so.....she doesnt quite understand how i feel.
Any support that i could get from any one i would really appreciate. Especially anyone who has gone through the same thing. Any ideas on how to curb my huge hunger pangs would be appreciated especially. I plain cannot find a way to cut my food down.
Wish me luck!!
