  • 3 Stone/42lb and a month early!

    Morning everyone!

    When I started this WOE, I had a mini target that I gave myself - 3 stone by Christmas - but I weighed in today, had a bit of a whooshie and there it was 42lb gone!

    Am totally walking on air at the moment, I am so thankful for this site and I have to say, I am sooooooo proud of myself.

    Giving up the wine and diet coke was a huge thing for me as I have said in previous posts, but I still have not had anything but water for just over 13 weeks. Huge achievement.

    I have really stepped up the exercise, I joined a gym this week - another huge step for me - have always been so conscience of doing exercise in front of all those fit people, but held my head high this week and really got into it.

    Had a fortnight of up and down weight - I only weigh once a week, as the scales have never been a big thing for me - its always been how my clothes fit - but I stayed so positive because I could feel my body changing shape these last two weeks (which I think has been down to the exercise challenges on this board) and it has paid off...

    I have measured this morning too and have only lost a little bit here and there but am in my size 20s now! Just body shape changing has done that! It's all good!! Am so happy I cannot stop smiling!

    Thanks everyone on here for the encouragement, advice and lots of patience!!!

    Happy Saturday to everyone - I am to buy a few new clothes and some exercise gear... whoop whoop!

    Love
    Janie xo

        Janie,
        that is wonderful news. You have been good.
        I love those little trips to buy a new item when scales or inches are gone. Really feels like I earned it. Have a happy shopping trip.
