So I've been sort of trying to lose weight for a long time. 'Sort of' being the problem!

Anyway the past month or so I have finally got my act together and made a proper effort to eat less and move more - nothing complicated, just a bit of elbow grease and dedication!

It has paid off!! I still have a way to go, but I'm so pleased with my current progress that I am feeling motivated enough to believe that I can do the rest :) woo!!

Overall, I have lost two stone - my highest weight EVER was 242. I started this most recent stint at 228, and I'm now at 214.

Better yet, I compared my measurements today and in just shy of six weeks I have lost 9inches - 4" from my waist alone!

I'm so happy, and not just because of the success - mostly I'm proud if myself and feeling like I got this. Yay :)

    Well done you! You should take before and after pics, I did this after losing 9lbs and noticed big difference! So worth doing, it gave me ALOT of motivation :)
