As the title says, today is the first day of the healthy lifestyle that this time, I will stick to!...
In the last few years my weight has crept up and up and i'm now nearly 2 stone heavier than I was when at my 'best'.
I'm 5'2 and weigh about 10 st 4....would like to get to 9 st and see how I feel then....
I've tried so many times to lose weight, but never stick to it..This time I have to as hardly any of my clothes fit any more! (I refuse to buy any new ones in a bigger size!!).
I started jogging a while ago and got fairly fit..Haven't been able to get out much lately, due to not being able to fit it in, but that has to change to!.
Am glad I found this site as it may be the help I need (I've always lost weight best with the support of a group - ie Weight Watchers, but am unable to make it to any of the groups in my area, so this is perfect)..
Well, here I go
Sheri!

I'm here for you, feel free to add me. Change is good. I hear you I was tired of not fitting into all my old clothes too, when I started losing I started giving away all my old "fat" clothes, now there's no going back. Time to move forward.0
