Hi All
I have toyed with the idea of starting a diet again and using this site to help me for about a month or so and have just not really done anything so today, I have decided to finally start.
Last year I lost 3 1/2 stone just eating healthily and exercising and in the last 10 months I have managed to put on 4stone 2lbs - that is pretty disgusting by anyone's standards!
Not sure how I did it, well I know really, eating crap and not exercising but still over 4 stone!!! that's like if you had just sat next to me and watched me you would see me getting fatter before your very eyes!
Anyway, despite my initial disgust at myself for allowing this to happen, I know I can get it off as I have done it before, just need a kick up the backside!
So today is day 1 - not of a diet but of a lifestyle change once and for all to get myself happy again... lets see how I get on!
Thanks for reading my waffle :) xxx

    I'm here also to make the lifestyle change after years of yoyo dieting. This is a fab tool - I find the food tracking really helps focus on what your eating, and the friends with the motivation. I'm sure you will succeed - like you say you've done it before :bigsmile:
