Hi, I started CD in June and am have lost 50lbs! Am now down to 10st 7. I'm 5ft 3in and my bmi is still not 25, but it's time to call it a day. I don't look stick thin BUT:
When started to try and lose weight I was in J Taylors size 20 trousers. I then started CD after losing a bit and wearing Next size 18. Stretchy size 18 side fastening suit trousers. I now can fit into a size 6 with a bit of a struggle.
I'm a size 32JJ and can wear a size 12 from Next. Also,
I have a pair for snug size 8 stretchy Lycra trousers from M&S.
The crunch was when my DH called my jogging bottoms saggy and their an 8, the 6 is too big and Next don't sell a size 4.
I still have a tummy, but I think it's time to give my body a rest and let it redistribute the weight.
I was on 790 and have moved to a low carb version of 1000. I'll go up through the stages slowly.
I want to say thanks to everyone here. The support has been amazing and pulled me through the tough times.
I'm on a Caribbean cruise for my wedding anniversary in Jan. A few years ago I had a formal photo taken and cried when I saw myself in it. I've had the frock altered and am having the photo redone this year. I think I might cry again!
I always wished I could wake up thin and live my life. My life hasn't changed as I was lucky it was good. I was just too miserable to realise that before. But now when I wake up, I feel like I have myself back again
