xGeordieGirlx's Restart EE and Green Diary

Hey guys :)

It's been a long time since I've been on here properly, since the end of June I believe!! I've been on and off plan since then, losing and gaining the same 8lbs. I've been trying my best but I keep falling off the wagon :( I need to be more firm with myself and start over properly, I need to write everything down to keep me right.

So I'm back. Totally restarting again tomorrow. No time frame, just want to lose steadily until I'm at a healthy weight that I'm happy with.

Also incorporating an intense gym regime into this in hope that I will tone up. Aiming to do around 5 hours of exercise a week (I'm used to going about 4/5 times per week - not been for 2 weeks though so starting again tomorrow!)

Currently 10st 8.5, 5ft 2 and size 14. My aim is to get around 9st-9st 6 and size 10/12.

Hopefully being back on this great site with you wonderful people will give me the encouragement and motivation I need to stay on plan :)

Hope everyone enjoys the rest of their weekend

Linzi (aka GeordieGirl) xx
