The Other Fat chick In Oz

Fat Chick In Oz | Donna W's Journal|Dad's Progress |Food Plan

Welcome to another FAT CHICK IN OZ!! I'd like to introduce Donna W (my best mate!).

G'Day!  

Well here I am baring it all on the web. Nothing like going public - hey? My name is Donna too. The other Donna and I have been friends for years and we are so much alike!

So much in fact, that we tip the scales at EXACTLY the same weight! :)   (16 stone)

I am totally sick of being this heavy. I have a degenerative spinal problem and I can tell you, the weight just does not help matters! I also suffer from varicous veins and have had an operation to remove some from my right leg. Let's face it, being 16 stone just adds to the pain I go through!  

I am sick of not being able to walk into a shop and just buying some great outfit I spy! I have to look in the 'Bigger Ladies' section and that really annoys me as I am sure alot of manufacturer's think that larger women belong in shapeless caftans in a tablecloth design material! Not that I'm into fashion, I just like what I like! I am sick of everything having elastic in the waistband so it is comfortable.

I have been thinking about losing weight for some time now and I figure if I make it public, it might spur me on. I have always been a 'yo-yo' dieter. At my heaviest I was 117kg, I tipped the scales at 123 kg when I was 9 months pregnent with our second child. I lost a heap of weight back in 1996 but since then I have managed to put 2 stone back on.

  So guys, here I am! Wish me luck and heaps of 'want' power! LOL!  

Let the journey begin.......................     Donna W
