Bouncing into your world on 19 March 2007 @ 10:17 a.m.
On February 28th I said: I know it's asking ALOT but I would love to end the summer around 13stone to 13 7. Well I mean September and if I am under 13 stone by my birthday then That would be heaven on earth. Got almost 7 months to worry about that though. Last night (Claire, you weren't about skip back one) with my holiday in mind I said: I am really going to do my VERY best to be 13 stone or under for my holiday. I know it's just over 2stone to lose, a little over 30lbs in 5 months and that is more than possible if I set my mind to it. 1.5lb loss a week average and I am really sure I am capable of doing it this time. I have never been so confident in myself and I know I can do well if I have the mind power and determination behind it. I have bought my target forward an entire month. It doesn't seem that big a feat. If I can stick to an average loss of around 2lb per week then I would be really really within reach of that. My targets change so often. My confidence has changed so much. 2 years ago I wasn't even trying. I was over 20 stone (over 280lb) and I was depressed. I had virtually given up on life. I was not a happy person. I was not happy in my marriage, I was not as strong as I am today and I did not have the self belief. I didn't think it was worth trying because I didn't think I could do it. I didn't think I could do anything by myself. Since splitting with the ex last year, I have NEVER felt better in my life. I have confidence in myself I never thought possible. I am doing better at everything I put my mind to. Not just dieting but I am achieving so much personally as I can do so much more to improve my own life that I didn't even think was possible before. The 70lb weight loss in 2 years is just one factor. Yet, it is the thing that makes me feel best about things. The more weight I lose, the more determined I become to finally succeed with my lifelong battle with my weight.
Currently: 13st 7lb. 189lbs. Total loss: 6st 13lb. 100lbs.
