I will do this!
Hi all, been hanging around on the forums for a few weeks and finally joined WW last Tuesday so thought I'd start a diary to keep me on track. Been ok so far, but wanted to write it all down here to help with my accountability and people can correct me if I make mistakes!
So a little about me, I'm 32 and proud mummy to 2 gorgeous boys aged 4 and 10 months. I had been over weight all my adult life, until in 2009, I saw the pictures of me at my sons 1st birthday party and knew I had to do something about it. I started LL at 16 stone 10 in September 2009. In February 2010 I hit target, 10st 10 and felt amazing, I had never experienced such feelings of self confidence, knowing I could wear whatever I liked, I felt amazing. I maintained for 6 months then decided to hve another baby, fell pregnant straight away and the sickness started so all my healthy rules went out the window and for 9 months I stuffed my face, ending up putting on 5 stone! I lost a stone going to the gym, then used a vlcd for another 2 stone loss, and have struggled the past 4 months, hanging around the same weight, trying to do vlcd, but keep binging. So I knew it was time for a change, to lose this weight the right way and learn about my eating while doing it.
My life is fantastic, my weight is the only issue that holds me back, it really does effect me, besides I have a lovely new wardrobe that I need to fit back into!
So here goes.. A new chapter in my life! Time to get back to 'healthy' and happy about myself.
