:wave_cry: Hi, I have been reading loads of your posts over the last week contemplating whether or not to take the Exante plunge....... which of course I did after reading the fabulous results from you all.
My husband has just left for a sixth month tour in Afghanistan and i have promised myself and him that i will be a stone lighter by the time he comes home to get my holiday in Florida. Hopefully, as I only have about a stone and a half to lose it will give me a chance to probably fall off the wagon and get back on again Not to mention the fact that i am also about to give up smoking and going by previous personal experience (ie the last time i gave up) i put on 2 stone . I'm kinda going into this like a bull in a china shop i know but i'm not one for doing things gradually or by cutting down, it's got to be all or nothing.
I'm one of these people that gets up every morning with all the motivation then can't be bothered and kick myself cause i know i have no willpower. The TV gets in the way especially at 9.30am when JK is on channel 3!!! Then its off to work at 11.30am, home by 3.30pm and the whole teatime regime till 6pm by then i just park myself in front of the TV again, at about 10pm once the kids have gone to bed i pour myself a drink and after a few get motivated again.
Well now i have heard the latest budget and theres about to be a 37p hike on fags i really do need to give up, OH quit the day he landed in Afghan, he can do it while im not around and vice versa. Same as doing this diet or any other, I find it soooo much easier when hes not here.
Hopefully by writing here will keep me on track and motivated, so any tips etc will defo be gratefully received believe me.
Thanks for listening
