I've just (about 10 minutes ago) managed to get into a pair of knee high boots!!! thats one of my major aims personally. I hated never being able to just go into a shop and buy some.
Hi Kati,
That is fab, knee high boots
Well done, I feel so many can relate to how good it must feel being able to just walk in off the street and find knee high boots to fit.
Well done you
Love Mini xxx
Thanks it's just annoying that I had to get down to a size 10 to 12 to be able to get into them! yet I have a friend who is a 16 and she has no trouble getting into them anywhere.
Thank you mini I am not going to mad with the exercise, just using my stepper and building it up gradually, Im not allowed to do much exercise anyway as I have a big umbilical hernia which has recurred from 8 yrs ago.
Another reason for my dieting to get it operated on.

Hello!
Sharing my achievements...
Anyway thats it for now.
- In Malta at the moment visiting my family and have just come back from a big family meet up and everyone immeditely told me that I must have lost loads of weight (I've only lost ten pounds since I last saw them in October). Feels fab.
- I am doing the GI diet and when following it I feel amazing - excellent energy levels and I really do believe that my eating habits have changed - I want to stick the style of eating FOREVER. I'm not saying that I don't occasionally want to eat some naughty stuff, but I fully intend to eat low GI for the majority of the time - for the rest of my life.
- I started the GI diet in Sept, starting weight 14.5. My current weigh is 12.9. I'm still a way from my goal of 9 stone, but I KNOW I WILL GET THERE.
- I have lost 5 inches off my waist, 3 inches off my bust and hips.
- I am now size 18 and the proud owner of lots new size 18 clothes from Qs and Primark
Well done to everyone else for their achievements and mini this was a great idea!
Luv CC xx xx xx xx
