5 years it has taken me to get to this stage and I've struggled and struggled every step of the way - it hasn't been a happy journey at all - I've had to deal with a reaccurring slipped disc in my back which has halted exercise over and over. Plus I don't really lose weight unless I'm incredibly low carb - well under 20. However, I'm actually quite chuffed that my size 16 jeans are pretty loose now and my size 10 jeans just reach my bum! At the beginning of this year they reached just above my knee! I am still very fat though, and apparantly according to my BMI I still need to lose 5 stone. I just can't comprehend that - I've only lost 2 1/2 stone and I can't imagine losing 5 more. In fact I really don't feel that much different at all. I still feel as fat as before and not really much fitter (in fact I feel less fit). Before 2004 After 2010 (look at my annoyed face, hadn't lost any weight that day lol) I'm not going to do any full body shots however, its took a huge amount of courage just to post my face I guess I could have posted my body without my face but still I don't think I could do that unless I was at my goal.
