    Right here goes, I am declaring my starting weight as 12 stone 4lbs - this is the most I have even been :o, but I am determined it is the heaviest I will ever be!

    Not sure what my final target is but my 1st target is to lose a stone - and do it by the end of January :eek: No fad diets (I've done them all :o) - just cutting down, eating sensibly - and I will have to exercise!

    OK - signature updated, I will weigh in every Friday - please nag me/help me to stay motivated :A

    It's definitely all about the exercise. A person can be as skinny as a rake, but that doesnt meant they're fit & healthy; whereas a curvy girl who exercises regularly is going to have energy, a glow, be full of life & postitivity :D

    I'm not weighing myself until next monday :p but the damned wii fit instructor smugly informed me that my body is 50 :eek:

    Sick of the gucky food already but it needs to be eaten so I shall make a valiant effort. I did pass a whole tin of cadburys to DD1 yesterday - I just dont, like them but the belgian biscuits are mine, all mine :rotfl: :o

    Another, lazyish holiday day :) But I have managed to do an exercise DVD and eat Ok (so far) so I am pleased with that :j

    Have also done somw washing so not totally lazy day - and I am dressed too :o

    Now sat down with a pile of magazines (old, diet ones to reread for inspiration) before I go to my Mum's to watch the footie :D

    Am aching from yesterday's workout - I am so unfit :o But still feeling positive about finally losing weight, so I will need to stick with the exercise. Have requested Amazon vouchers with my Nectar points so will order the Davina DVD when they come through

    Recieved my £50 cheque from YouGov this morning :j so that can go in the bank and then straight to Barclaycard. Would be fab if I could clear it by end of Jan - a little mini target! :D

    Today I am considering a mooch around the sales - I have £50 Top Shop voucher - but not sure whether to keep them and treat myself when I have lost my first stone???? Although I need a top for NYE as the one I was planning to wear is too tight :o

    Also plan to eat well and do a workout, and I need some bits from the supermarket or I will end up only eating chocolate :p
