Hey everyone,

my first post so don't know what I should be writing.

This is my 2nd attempt at major weightloss this year!! I started really focussing and succeeding 8 weeks before my wedding in August this year!! The fact my wedding dress didn't even fit over my head was enough motivation I needed to lose 3 stone 9 lbs in 8 weeks and feel like a 50's vintage princess on my wedding day!!

4 weeks later I had to have a knee operation so my exercise and healthy eating went completely to pot!! and im now 11 weeks after the wedding and when I last weighed myself had put on 23lbs in 11 weeks by being lazy!!

I started back to my healthy eating on Monday, and have already lost 4.25lbs. The only thing Im going to struggle with is exercise since the op I cant do much exercise and am going to be even stricter on the no treats!!

Im open to anyones help and suggestions that could keep me going through quite a tough time!!!

My goals are lose 30lbs by xmas, then the last 33lbs by 20th April 2014, my 25th Birthday!!

Thanks

    I've had knee surgery as well! What was it for if I may ask? I had torn my ACL and so they had me in a lot of therapy for it. If you are also in physical therapy I would count that as exercise. It's not high heart rate stuff but you are being active. Also, Your arms are great to work on when your legs aren't!
