Hello all,
I'm new to this forum, so just want to introduce myself and tell you my life long story with weight my problem.
I was pretty active as a child, riding my bike pretty much everywhere I went, living in the country my friends lived 2-3 miles away so riding that everyday kept me trim, however I think my problem with weight started when I got into the habit of having snacks when watching films in bed before I went to sleep, I think I was about 10 at the time when I started to do this, snacks later progressed into midnight feasts and I guess this is when I really started piling on the pounds.
I was wasn't really fat, just chubby I guess, I still used to ride my bike everyday so that used to burn some calories, All thought high school I stayed pretty much chubby but within my frame size but I guess the really problems started when I was 16, when I got a scooter for my birthday, instead of riding my bike I was driving everywhere, and It didn't help that fact that I got a job at Burger King as well, so after that I wasn't doing any exercise and eating junk food all the time finally reached my all time high weight of 16 stone.
A few years pasted, at the same weight and finally I decided enough was enough and I had to lose weight, I had tried diets in the past but never could stick to them. I think I was 21 at the time and decided to make it my new years revolution 2006/2007 to lose weight and by April I was down to 13 ½ stone from 16 stone.
I somehow lost track of my diet after that date, and mange to keep it off during the summer but once winter came I piled all the weight back on.
It really upset me to think all that hard work for nothing, so I'm back at square one again, not quite as high as 16 stone, I'm currently at 15 stone 7 pounds.
I'm hoping that in four months I will be able to lose 4 stone to get down to my goal weight of 11 stone 7 pounds. I thought I might keep a record of my diet progress as a way of helping me and with your support I think I might be able to achieve my goal.
I'm starting the diet tomorrow, Thursday 24th July. I'll be posting daily, with what food I have eaten, exercise I have done and what weight I have lost.........if any:sigh:
I remember someone once said to me, “It's easy to lose weight...........it's hard to keep it off”
Thank You
Arran
