Today is the first day of my 'diet'.
There, I've said it. I know that most slimming clubs or books or videos don't like to use that word but I will, because I want to.
I'm determined that this year my stomach will get smaller; my arms not so flappy; my legs not so wobbly; my thighs not so chafing. And I want to look HOT in a swimming costume for ONCE in my life!!!!!
There are also health issues that come with having extra weight but for the moment, what can I say, I'm superficial - I don't want to look fat anymore. It's going to be hard and I'm going to get fed up.
I know, at times I sound angry and I am but more at myself that it's taken this long to sort myself out. Although to be fair I did lose weight before the kids but then when I became pregnant and also afterwards, I just ate.
Don't worry, I won't turn this blog into a 'losing weight crusade' but I might just let you know how I'm doing once in a while just to get it off my chest (no pun intended there).

Good luck. I lost 2 and a half stones and countless inches in the 12 months up to Feb 2011 and felt good about myself for the first time in many, many years. I have kept the weight off until now! A few pounds have crept on over Christmas and I don't like the feel of it, so I'm back to eating sensible portions, not eating between meals, and doing some exercise.
ReplyDeleteThanks Scarlet and welcome to the blog. I know I've probably got about 3 stones to lose so it's going to be a bit of a slog but I'm going to get there.
ReplyDeleteI have about three stones to lose too. I'm just going to go slow and steady and hope that it comes off gradually. Good luck!
