Animator hoping to lose weight

Options
hi all! i'm here because i need a reminder for myself that i need to lose 16kg by May. From March 2006 to March 2007 i rapidly gained 10kg because of an animation project(late night and outside food) and after that i guess i went through a silent depression and self-esteem problem (though i still present myself bubbly and cheerful infront of my colleagues) i have now only pick up my courage to confront my weight problem and hope to lose it in time for my SO's summer ball. If you are in the graphic/advertising/creative industry you'll know how its like when a new project comes in. Problem was i didnt even snack at all! I guess having 3 cups of coffee every other day and work 70hours per week did the trick. :embarassed:

My lifestyle is a total mess and i hope to regain control of my life and start being active outdoor again. I seriously need to drop from 61kg to 45kg. I miss my old figure!
