hi all,
I have never joined a forum before and so why not try. how do I start with my induction to you all? well, I was always happy with myself, I have 2 kids, a husband who loves me but a mirror that didn't. I first discovered my weight when I was trying on a dress for a wedding in January 2015. I hoped the reflection was a clown mirror in a fun house, it was not! my mother in law said "we could get you a tummy controller....my inside reaction was one of horror. I was a size 18-20 uk and weighed 200.1lb or 14.3st. so I began portion control and still eating what my daughters did so not to show dieting is restricting, ? simply ate less. I would have cheese and choc still but in small portions and not often, I changed my outlook on food. I then joined the gym twice a week and swimming on Sundays...I now weigh 12st 4lb...I know its a loss but im on my own and now when I eat something I like and its not healthy I fear I will slip back..i need support and from people who can share the same feeling....any guidance?
