I was on here last year and doing well. Shopping, cooking and eating sensibly. The weight dropped off slowly but that was what I wanted. I wasn’t on a diet I was on, with my husband, a life style change.
Well, bad habits have gradually crept back and the weight has piled on. I have no excuses at all. I am, quite simply, a disaster. My husband has kept his exercise up and is doing well but I am like the Goodyear blimp.
My best friend has been doing the ‘Shake that Weight’ diet. A low carb soup and shake mix, available on the net here in the UK and has lost a huge amount of weight. She’s looking for a diet buddy because her old one has fallen off the wagon and there I was, sitting on the bottom of the barrel when she started scraping it.
We have a new kitchen-diner being put in on May 5th. It will take 2 weeks so most meals will either be done on the barbeque, caravan or cobbled together using the microwave and Actifry in the sitting room. I know it would be sensible to wait until after the work is finished but the way I’m going I dread to think what I will weight then. At least I can stop the rot a bit now and mentally I feel as if I am taking control again. My box of shakes will arrive tomorrow and I can’t wait. I’m going to take it 2 stones (28lbs) at a time. If I had a ticker for the whole lot I have to lose it would be so daunting I’d give up
This time round I don’t deserve the sympathy and support I had last time I was on here. This is the friendliest and nicest forum on the web and I feel as if I have let everyone down. Dumpy… more like fat Alice!
