Excellent!!! Can't wait to be where you are. One pound at a time

Love this! For the first time EVER I too have been making healthy choices when eating out. Two months ago one of the main factors in deciding what to have from a menu was was it the biggest portion option and did it come with fries! Monday I chose salad and a brown bun when i could have had fish and chips. I have never…

Brilliant! Hope I'm still on track like you in another month. I'm one month in and 1stone down xxx

Thanks for that!!!

I was obese and pregnant both times!! Don't do it!! Aches, pains, hemmaroids etc etc not to mention gestational diabetes. Being patronised by nurses about your eating habits. Having to read "unable to scan baby properly due to mothers high BMI" on all of your scan notes. If you can be healthy weight before you get pregnant…

Realising I didn't have to be fat. It was absolutely my choice! Oh and suddenly realising my Guinea pigs were eating a more nutritious diet than me!!

No one can motivate you but yourself. The only advice I can give is just to start. Start eating healthily right now, this second. I'm only a month in, my main motivation is that I've done it for 20 odd days and I'm not going to undo all my hard work. Plus I've lost 12lb. It's an amazing feeling. Try it!! Do it now. You…

Wow! Fantastic. Your last weight is my goal weight for my sisters wedding. Really hope I get there . Very inspiring xx

Have you tried the Cassoulet? It is amazing...[/quote] Trying that next, thank you x

I did not edit my post! Not one word. You read it differently.

I really hope the hairy bikers haven't duped me!!! The thighs were tiny!! Next time I make it I will weigh everything separately and work it out!

I'm trying to! Sure... More the merrier!!!!

Good advice x

;)

Thank you to those who have replied in the spirit this post was intended. I was not trying to patronise or shame anybody. I was simply sharing an internal dialogue I was having with myself about my own body image and was hoping others may have felt the same. I have a daughter and a younger sister. I would never EVER shame…

My diary us now visible! Sorry. The photo is a good idea if I can get the confidence up to take it. It's just hard being at the beginning of a VERY long journey. Thank you for your support x

Add me xxx

Not 34 days... 24 days x

It's says a lot more about me than the women whose blogs I follow. I am trying to understand why I see them and myself as a victim rather than the strong confident women we are. It's a lot more than weight loss. It's about self esteem and body image. This is all so new to me. I'm trying to get me head around it.

Lovely replys. Thank you girls. You are absolutely right x
