5 years MFW - Lets get cracking...

Oh Helen that is amazing, well blooming done!! Have you set yourself an end goal weight or size?

I went shopping about a month ago when I was really chuffed with my weight loss and bought some lovely jeans that are already too big for me which I'm quite annoyed about!!

Think 4 stone 7 lbs total, so another 25 lbs, size 8-10. Feels very achievable,hope that level of motivation carries on, as definitely in the zone, although the last 7 lb will be the hardest. Up to yet everything is tightening back nicely, so just hope that continues.

Can't believe come so far in such a short space of time. Did 65 mins on cross trainer, didn't run as still quite tired and was very late getting there as Dave's parents arrived just as was about to leave so nearly 12 when eventually set off.

Tried some clothes on a few week ago and they now are too big, fortunately not new, all old stuff in wardrobe, so know what you mean FD.

Brilliant weight loss HDK, size 8-10 from a size 20 will be amazing!


Have you kept you size 20 trousers so you can try them on again when you get to target?

HelenDaveKids

Yes shala, I will be keeping at the bottom of the wardrobe, tried on today and even now seem massive. Just hope can get to target! Just had yet another rummage round and found some really nice size 14 tops as well as some gym trousers that now fit. Have some really nice cropped trousers on today, although they are a size 16, they do fit perfectly.

Chores done, brother has visited and so nothing to do but relax, although tea needs making, possibly another salad based meal, as then I can make tomorrow's lunch at same time.

Have a list of ideas for doo yoo but not sure in the mood.

Just ate nearly all my zumba session in thorntons fudge... which to be fair, wasnt that many and at least allowed... still quite naughty though.

Well done GG. Just in and need to be out again by 5, dd1 made tea and was lovely but now over calorie count, thank goodness gym later...

HelenDaveKids

Another 1lb this week.

Have just dragged down loads of clothes from loft, 3 very big bags, some real old favourites too. Too small but another goal.

Fantastic. How great do you feel?

HelenDaveKids

Feeling absolutely brilliant tbh. Don't get me wrong, still a way to go but seems so achievable and I'm actually enjoying the journey. Feel quite powerful as I can do whatever I set my mind too.
Also its interesting how people's perception of you change, you can see it so easily, I have always thought that when I'm fat, people assume your lazy and not intelligent, which is very unfair. I haven't changed at all, I just make better food / drink choices, and work harder at the gym.
