  • Look how much I lost under a year!

    Hi my name is Sham I am 28 years old and a mother to 3 beautiful boys.Last May I had my third boy and in the pregnancy I put on lots of weight around 5 stones which is alot in 9 months and for a lady who was 5ft7ins tall made me look massive.Before my pregnancy i was fat i weighed 15 stone and at the end 20 I know thats alot I felt horrible my pregnancy clothes were massive I looked crap when I tried to dress up because I felt crap and fat.Last July in summer all my summer clothes did not fit I thought thats enough im gonna lose weight so I started the Atkins diet on the 7th July on my birthday and promised myself im gonna carry on until my birthday this year which is around the corner.My start weight believe me was 283lb and today I can proudly say I weigh 185.4lb nearly 100lb loss under a year.I had set a year long goal of 180 Im so close I know I should have waited till I met that mark but I am so pleased with my results and so happy that I had to post now those few lbs don't matter i look good I fit into a medium in some clothes and large are loose on me wow!Im gonna keep going and going to try and achieve my new goal of 170lb then I will no longer be even overweight believe me i will be NORMAL.I hope I have inspired others especially other women who are trying to lose theier baby weight if so good luck you can also do it just stay focused its hard as it was for me i had cheat moments broke diet few times but restarted and thought about my goal which has got me where I am today.All the best to everyone reading.
