So I have dieted since I was 19 on and off I am now 33!! I have tried every diet known to man I think the latest is I have spent 2 years nearly pissing about with VLCD's the thing that hooks me on those is the promise to lose 1 stone a month...It is so hard for me to stay on the plan 100% and as soon as I fall off the wagon it goes all Pete Tong!
I have done SW previously and did lose weight, I have PCOS so carbs are not really my friend but even when I was doing Green days on SW I lost weight.
The only thing that is niggling me is I know it is going to take me longer to lose weight this way but lets be real it has been 2 years pretty much and I weigh 1 pound more than day 1 on Cambridge!
I decided last week when talking to my husband that SW would be the best plan for me because it is a lifestyle change that can be done forever, I don't have to punish myself for eating anything.
I want to get healthy, we did TTC for a long time and I know that my weight was a factor of stopping us conceiving. I wanted to put myself out there and putting "Pen to paper" if you like. My daughter is 12 this week and I am seeing signs of PCOS on her already and I know controlling weight is a major thing so this way I can monitor her "diet".
I currently weigh 14 stone 6 pounds even typing that makes me want the ground to open up and swallow me!! We had a Halloween party yesterday and I was caught in a picture, I wanted to cry when I saw it I do not liik good or healthy.
I am going to go along to a club on Wednesday and start. This isn't just another start date for ANOTHER diet this is me taking control of my life and getting my confidence back. I am not going to say I will be writing on this daily but I will make sure its a regular thing that I do and hopefully I will be able to look back in a year and feel more confident and happy and mostly more healthy than I am right now. My husband is doing the plan with me. I hope that this could one day help someone else because I promise if I can do this ANYONE can. So I will finish this with a few reasons why I want this.
1. Health
2. A good role model for my kids
3. God damn I want to look hot! I want to look back one day and say "when I was young I looked amazing"
4. To help my PCOS symtoms
I hope the future Kelly will be happy for what I am about to start ;-) :wave_cry:
