Weight loss, dieting - yuk!!!

2009-11-18T01:50:00.000-08:00

So, here I am 29, 5f3' and 11st 9 (163llbs) and living in London where life seems to cause only havoc to someone like me who is desperate to lose weight!

Why am I doing this?

1. In an attempt to inspire others, as if I succeed then really anyone can.

2. Am hoping that this will drive me forward positively and encourage me not to have 4 chunky caramel kitkats in a row (but they're soooo good!). That my writing about it honestly somehow it will help.

3. I like writing and have never done anything like this. In fact, I don't fully get blogging or at least I haven't wanted to, in the same way that I don't want to get into Big Brother or Harry Potter.

So, I'm currently laying in bed (working from home!) and about to crack on with my first meal. I joined Weight Watchers yesterday, I've done it before and it works so am going to do my best. A stone off before Christmas? hmmmm... would love to.

Why do I want to lose weight?

1. I feel pretty gross.

2. I can't fit into my lovely old clothes.

3. It really does knock my confidence and given that I'm a very happy, outgoing person, I can have really low days as a result of my weight.

4. I'm just so much happier thinner. I can handle more, things don't bother me half as much as they do following a morning of working out which jeans to put on that won't make me feel like shit due to their tightness.

5. Want to go on holiday and feel great, not hiding behind stuff (this is generally too). I want to sit on a sofa without a pillow. I want to be carefree and not worry. Having said all of this, no-one in the world would ever think that I even had one of these thoughts - maybe another reason for this blog.

I know it's not a life threatening illness and in the grand scheme of things, so what! But if you are like me, weight can really determine everything re moods and overall happiness! Don't know why but some people are crazy re it, fear I my be one.

Anyway, through this I will share it all... Am likely to digress on several occassions and talk about something completely irrelevant... Guess this will be a bit of a diary/life history too. Watch out, there's been some stuff.

Anyway, what shall I have for breakfast? Am I going to exercise today... I want to, and I have got new trainers? hmmmm... let's see. But this time, I'm going to lose weight.

Honestly, I think I've done everything... Juicing, delivery boxes, WW, Slimming World, no carbs, apple after every meal. And then there's all the crap I've bought... anything with diet, weight loss and I'm all over it! Holland and Barratt is all around me which the latest purchase being the Bach's Emotional Eating Kit. Why not? Will let you know if it does anything. I've got Hoodia, Fat Busters and lots more. My friend last night recommended Ali pills but I think I'm going to just stick to herbal stuff for now - she says!

Right, day two of WW... I was good yesterday although I did have nearly a bottle of red wine which raised me 8 point or so?

19 points, let's do it!
