So I sit here and I'm a wreck. Truth of it is I'm greedy, and lazy. So let's start at the beginning.
My nan was starved as a kid, and so when she grew up she over compensated with food, she died in 2006 aged 63 from obesity. She was 5ft 3 and 27 stone, however it's not just her it has affected. As children me and my sisters would spend the weekends there and as she lived just 5 minutes down the road we'd more often than not see her during the week. We would be dished up dinners that were bigger than an average adult meal and we were told to eat it all. Some would say this is child abuse but it wasn't as clear as that. My sisters also struggle with their weight but I am by far the fattest. I have always had a large frame. I would look ridiculous at a size 8 but at the same time I look ridiculous at a size 26. So at 15 I was a size 12/14 where as my friends were size 6/8, I was never fat and I loved sport. So I become an adult and I'm around a size 16 which for my height looks slimmer. In 2005 I met my current partner, and you know how this goes, I was so content it never bothered me. So here I am at 31 no children, 5ft 9 23stone 12 I do no exercise and I look at myself and think damn my nan died at 27 stone I'm almost that I need to do this. I've always wanted children and find that I have issues with ovulation. So I've started slimming world but my issue is portion control. It takes a hell of a lot to fill me up. I love all veg. Fruit is okay, but salad bleurgh I will eat it but it's not nice and not filling.
I've got an exercise bike coming and weights and exercise dvds because I'm just not confident to go to the gym.
So why am I telling you. It's because I thought if I write it all down it would help keep me motivated. Thanks for listening.
