my name is donna and i was shocked to find out i weighed 236 pounds and my BMI was 39.9 on 2nd Jan.

I decided i had to do something about it so have started a whole revamp of my lifestyle not just a diet but a life change.

I have lost 10 pounds in 2 weeks and am planning on starting an exercise recime shortly once my body is used to the lesser intake.

Typical example of what i am eating:

breakfast: porridge with 180ml skimmed milk
Lunch: 1/2 can soup with 2 slices of wholemeal bread (thin)
Tea: grilled chicken + salad or fish + vegetables etc
8 glasses of water a day

I have also cut out alcohol, tea, coffee and fizzy drinks and my skin looks better and I feel better in myself already its amazing!
