newbie needs all the help I can get!

Options
I'm very new to all this. I'm a serial yo yo dieter with a degree in excuse making! I need all the motivation I can get. The final straw was an old toothless man grabbing my bum in the pub and saying "I like a girl with meat on her bones, it's good to see a girl who clearly loves a good feed" Never again will this happen!

    You can do it Stace! This is the first time since my skinny phase 4 years ago that I feel confident about losing weight. My food diary is open so you can see the ridiculous amounts of fruit and veg I'm eating! haha. Also g&t is my saviour! x

    That old man nearly saved me a pint as it was about to go over his head! Oh and Mark said to me (while drunk) I fancy you whatever you look like...very sweet but I could have smacked him!

    Thanks, I'm feeling more positive already! I'm actually going to give aqua zumba a try tonight, the idea of swim wear is a daunting one though!

    Thanks everyone! I'm feeling so motivated (even if it is just to go a slap that toothless old man...I wonder how many calories I'd burn....)
