Greeting and welcome to my attempt at motivating myself.
I have been reading your diaries for sometime and feel that by posting on here it will spur me on to my eventual goal.
This is the first time I have posted on an open forum so be gentle with me.
There are many inspirational stories on here.
I have tried many diets over the years and always done quite well on them only to lose focus some months down the line and regain the weight.
A story which I’ve no doubt you all have heard before.
So I thought by writing it down and actually seeing it in print.
I will have a better chance of succeeding
I am male and in my mid fifties
I have attended SW classes before and intend to go back to them, as I found them useful and it's sets a mini goal for each week.
I have thought about going back to a different group, but now have decided to return to my previous group and face them some 4 stone + heavier than the last time they saw me.
I had a real goal last time to lose the weight, but after that event had passed, I stupidly went back to my old ways.
I have already got rid of my old fat clothes, so I have a wardrobe full of small clothes again to aim for.
The last time I was on the plan I did the red and green days and found that worked for me.
I have since attempted to get back on track by Extra Easy but for some reason I just can’t get my head around it so its back to the old faithful.
Thanks for reading and any comments good or bad will be welcome ……let the battle of the scales begin.
Weigh in starts later today.
Dave
