I've decided I need to get off my (huge) ass and shift the rest of my weight now...I had lost about 8stone a couple years ago but the weight loss stopped when I got pregnant. I've put up about a stone from before which isn't too bad.
I now weigh 20stone3lb (was originally 'deep breath' just over 27 stone
) so I have quite a lot to lose but not as much I suppose than if I was starting from the beginning lol
I'm doing this for my son - I think that'll inspire me more as I'd do ANYTHING in the world for my little JJ
When I was in school I was bullied (not saying this for sympathy just the facts of why I'm doing this) the bullying was in part for my size and also in part cos my mum couldn't afford 'modern' clothes for us (plus she hadn't a clue of fashion bless her lol) so we got bullied for being different. I swore to myself then that if I ever was lucky enough to have a kid NO WAY would they be in any way different - in any way that I could control anyway.
I know for a fact that if I stay as I am that my boy will most likely come home with 'You have a fat mummy' ringing in his ears. This would kill me to embarrass him like that. Also I want to be the mummy running around playing with him, not the beached whale sat on a bench (hoping it won't collapse!) watching him and not able to join in.
So there you have it - my journey begins (congrats btw if you managed to read this far without falling asleep!)
Started Slimming world last week had an ok week so far (I think lol) and get weighed tomorrow so will update then
I'll put pics up later when I can get OH to take one of me - as a big girl I HATE pics of me and there aren't any around that I could upload...
Week 1 - 4.5pounds lost
Week 2 - 2.5pounds gained
Week 3 - 1pound lost
Week 4 - 1pound lost
Week 5 - Half a pound lost going slowly sooooo slowly but at least in the right direction...
Week 6 - 2.5pounds lost - and I got my first half-stone award today
Week 7 - 1pound gained (but this isn't half bad as it was Christmas week)
Week 8/9 - 6pounds lost (no class last week due to snow) total so far 12pounds
Week 10 - 1pound gained
