When you're serious about losing weight
Offended by the title? Well that's too bad - it's the truth! I am a 34 year old mum from Australia who is FAT!
In 1985 I was 8 stone (approx 50kg). In 1990 I was 12 stone (approx 76kg). In 1997 I was 9 stone (approx 57kg) and now I am 16 stone (approx 100kg) !!!!!! :(
How did I let myself get this way? Well I have done the yo - yo dieting for years now and finally decided that I was sick of it all and just gave up. The weight just crept on and I ignored the little voice inside telling me that I was very overweight. I still hadn't got the idea that in order to be healthy and near my ideal weight that I had to adopt a healthy lifestyle. Well it's time to do that. I am sick of myself to put it bluntly. Also, this week I had a call from my dad to tell me he had to lose weight after finding out that he has diabetes. So now we are going to do it together - time for action I say.
Why am I telling the world wide web? The answer is simple - this way I will be more motivated to continue and acheive my goals. :) (I also like to rave on !)
Feel free to leave a message with any comments and also feel free to read my journal. Who knows, you may even want to join me in my healthy lifestyle quest. I will also be putting links to inspirational stories as I find them. I have surfed for quite a while only to find journals of people who have stayed at the same weight for one or two years!! :(
