Arghhhh weight/dieting.............. the story of my life!
Can I join please.......I'll try anything, and if it means I have to post a picture on ere, then that may be the incentive I need!
I have been trying to lose weight for about 10 years, very unsuccessfully!!
My weight has yoyo'd for a decade now, with losing a child, IVF and a divorce, and being stressed in general, (we all have our different problems and reasons I appreciate). I have turned to food and alcohol for comfort. I'm 37 and have found it really hard to shift the weight for the last 10 years. I keep making excuses but I'm really fed up of myself and long to be a size 12 again.
I eat heathily, but eat rubbish as well, drink far too much wine and enjoy meals out and take-aways, like the biscuits and chocies too. Not much hope for me is there!!
I'm 5ft 5 and weigh 14.4 stone, and wear a 16/18 on top and 18 bottom.
OMG can't believe I'm admitting that, its Ok when your telling people you don't know though isn't it. I try to make the best of things, in taking great pride in my appearance, wearing nice clothes, accessories etc, but I would love to be even just a 14!! 10 1/2 stone would be good for me.
Anyway I'm good at talking about it and not doing anything about it. I start diets and by week 3 I've had a night out and binge and all the good intentions are gone out the window. I joined a gym 5 weeks ago, I went hell for leather for 3 weeks and felt much better, then missed a couple of days and havent been since, I get so bored!!
I wish I was one of these people who loved exercise (like Clairet on here, she'll kill me LOL!, she's got a lovely figure, uses a gym regularly and looks after herself!)
I was once told at slimming world "nothing tastes as good as being thin" !!
Pity I don't think of that more when I have my hand in the biscuit tin, and when I'm pouring that extra glass of wine !!
