Hi
I'm Emma and I've started Weight Watchers points system this Monday.
I need to shift about half of my body weight, so I'm in it for a while. I'm not actually going to the classes but I know I can do it without, I'm just going to have to be extra strict and come here for a bit of a moan/advice.
I lost 4 stone about 2 years ago and went down from a size 24 to a size 18, and since then i've had a little boy and the weight has creeped back up. I am now size 24 again and I'm really really angry with myself and feel quite sick and embarrassed.
I want to do this for my son too more than anything, I need to be teaching him and drum it into him about healthy eating and being careful from an early age, as I don't want him to grow up as the fat kid at school. Hes only 7 months right now, but its not too early to start. So I have to pracitice what I'm teaching him.
I'm going to Egypt at the end of April and I want to lose a couple of stone by then. I have 11 weeks to do it in, so that is my first mini goal.
I'm then going to Greece for my birthday in August, so I need to set myself another little goal, 27 weeks I think it is. What would you think is a realistic goal to set for then?
Finally, I am going to apply to start my nurse training a year in March. so I have 13 months to lose as much as possible so I can start that feeling comfortable and happy with myself. Again, I don't know what a realistic goal would be for then, but its that far away I can think about that after my other 2 goals.
Thanks
