Hi all!
After spending most of a week reading the diaries on here I thought I'd try to keep one also
I'm Sarah, 35, and have been over weight since I had my first child 12 years ago (today!). At my heaviest I was 20 stone 7lbs. I started to lose weight after an awful relationship brokeup back in feb. After the initial drop in weight I started to sts so decided to join WW. I was 17stone 5lbs when I joined WW.
I have been on the plan for about 3months and now weigh 15 stone 9lbs. I'd ideally like to keep losing until I'm happy with my shape.
Yesterday my friend reminded me to take my measurements. Since joining WW I have lost 4 inches from my waist and thigh and 6 and a half inches of my hips. I'm also comfortable in size 18's instead of size 24! I told my partner this and he said I was the amazing shrinking woman (long way to go but a good name for my diary I think!).
I have had such a wonderful year from the time I got rid of my awful ex. I got back in touch with a man I used to see at uni and we started seeing each other and in July he took me to italy and asked me to marry him
. I have three children (2 girls that live with me and my son who lives with his Dad) and myself and the girls are moving in with my partner next July. We can wait, we love him very much.
We are also planning to get married on the beach abroad in july 2012 so I have a big incentive to lose the rest of this flubber! I got my virgin holidays wedding brochure today, atm we are thinking either on board a cruise ship (partner would like to get married by a captain!), the seychelles, st lucia or mauritius. Any one been? I'd love to hear your experiences.
Every now and again I realise that there is something different about me because I have lost weight - last week it was that I can see my collar bone again and i looked 'normal' in the hall of mirrors in ikea (last time I went to ikea I didn't want to look!). My boots from Evans which only just did up over my calves last year are now too big! I'm hoping this diary will be the place I can write about these things and not forget.
Most of all I'm looking forward to getting to know you all.
