Build my temple

I joined today to MFP as I know that I need support and a place to come where I can find like minded people.

It has been a hard journey in which I want to do my best to make more of a life changing commitment. When I was married I weighed 16 stone and was a size 24 dress. I looked at photos at the time and cried. How did I turn into this fat person? At school I had ran and kept fairly active, then I fell pregnant and was involved in a very difficult relationship. I saw an advert on T.V and signed up to WW. Wow it worked! and for the larger lady it is great. I came all the way down to size 14 at just shy of 13 stone. I could not have been happier. Then I stayed at the 12 stone 12 pound mark for weeks. I knew I had to kick it up a notch. The issue is I found that WW was not doing me any good now. I left yet continued the work I had so diligently accomplished. Sadly my husband and I split yet this made me more determined. I changed my image and went back to education, as a single mum, it was hard but I did what I could and my little girl started to look up to me. I had a few dates and remained a size 12-14 but then I met the man of my dreams and he made me feel like I was perfect. In toe I started to ignore the hatred things my husband said to me in the past and believed I am special and beautiful.

Now I am 11 stone 5 which is over a stone heavier than I was 6 months ago. I have undergone a few operations and had to spend a long time recovering. Now I am on the mend and I need to feel good again, healthy. So for all those out their who has read this and it has sparked some common ground, give me an invite and lets support each other. I plan on doing a weekly entry to talk over successes and pitfalls.
