Day 1 - yes I've been here before but this time I have to lose some weight. I am feeling so flabby and the heat is getting to me. I feel ashamed to wear summery clothes and I realise how huge I am next to my collegues and friends. Enough is enough. My greatest fear is that when I lose weight my skin will look all wrinkly as I am now 40, I have good skin and virtually no wrinkles now, but when I lose weight I might end up looking haggard and wizened. I do hope I don't!! This I think is why I fear losing weight. But I suppose if I do look like 'She' at the end of the film, I can always put it back on again! Right so tomorrow I will start and keep to 22 points a day.
 
Welcome! (or welcome back!) Good luck on your journey!
 
Hey! Nice to meet you. Invest in a good firming moisturizer. (I'm forever the cosmetician, whether at work or not! :) ) Hope to see you around a lot!
 
catesweight howdy and welcome back.... the only time I think skin in a problem is if you lose weight too fast like in the surgeries and such. even me being as large as I am I have notices the inches I have lost and the skin still looks the same. I think your skin knows what to do if you give it time to keep up.....
 
Thanks Hillbilly, I will bear that in mind, and well done for your weight loss!

Day 2 I have had a bad start as I went to a retreat with work buddies and it was all cream teas and cakes etc.. I didn't eat excessively but watching points was not part of the day. Nevermind, tomorrows another day!
 
Day 3 and 4 More social engagements involving food :( I look at my wobbly stomach and wonder when I am going to get the opportunity to shed it.
 
I need some motivation and support! I can't seem to convince myself that I need to diet, but I know I do but how can I do it?
 
Here, there is some good motivation for you. Think of it as an attack. You must fight the fat. Once you start losing, it becomes more of a habit, and you see results. It keeps you going. RIght now is the hardest point.
 
Thank you FatGuyTri, I think you're right, I just have to get into it, get started, it is difficult to keep up the dieting, I wish I had some more motivation!:)
 
How are you coming along? Stick with it. You'll be mad at yourself if you dont!
