Need a dieting buddy!

[AlwaysDreamin]

Hello!

A little backstory... I had twins 15 months ago. I didn't gain too much while I was pregnant with them but they were born prematurely, so after their birth, all I was focused on was them, I didn't care about myself at all. Couple that with spending all of my time at the hospital and eating takeaways late at night when I got home, my weight ballooned.

In May I weighed myself and I was shocked to see the scales read 12 stone 2lb!
I put it to the back if my mind for a while... Stupid I know.
Then on the boys birthday, my sister took a photo of me. And I seriously didn't recognise that person. I looked huge.
So I decided to do something about it, I rejoined my fitness pal and stuck to 1200 calories a day.
I did really well up until Christmas when I fell of the wagon.

Now I'm finding it difficult to get back in control.
I'm so annoyed with myself as I was doing so well.

I now weigh 10stone 11. Which I'm still really not happy with. I still look the same when I look in the mirror.
So I need to get back on it, big time!

The lbs are already creeping back on. I'd gained 3lb when I weighed myself last Friday. However, AF has decided to show up today so I'm putting abit of that down to water weight as I was unbelievably bloated before it came. (And still am).


Sooo, anyone wanna help me along? I want to get back down to 9 stone.

If you're still using MyFitnessPal, feel free to add me! I try to stick to around 1200 calories.

Taking breaks can be a good thing for the overall picture, so don't be too hard on yourself! It's good practice for maintaining once you get to your weight goal.

Hi we are similar weights and I'm aimming to get back into the 9s too. Can't wait for the nicer weather so I can feel more motivated to do lots of exercise.
