Healthy range BMI but needing to loose around 7lbs before cr

Enchantica

As the subject says - I'm not too overweight but I do need to start and be more aware of my weight and I could really do with loosing about 7lbs in the next 6 weeks so I can wear my bikini and feel more confident when I go away on a cruise in February.

Most of my friends and family think I'm crazy when I say I'm trying to loose weight as my BMI is within healthy ranges but my weight has been starting to nudge up since I went through the menopause. With clothes on I suppose I look ok but once I put the bikini on it's a different matter and the bulges are starting to show. I would rather have to loose 7lbs now than need to loose a few stone in the future. I've seen my own mum struggle with her weight and now she's facing an uphill struggle. I want to feel good about myself - and I certainly don't want to have to buy myself new clothes in a bigger size!
