So it’s been two months since I have wrote anything down here. I think because I felt I had nothing to say but reality is my life is starting to change for the better!
I started slimming world five weeks ago ago and so far I have lost 13 and a half pounds. I am very proud of that as I have alot of weight to loose. I have been overweight all my life and since suffering with depression I suffered with binge eating quiet alot and emotional eating. It’s definetly my comfort blanket.
I am finding the plan enjoyable but I do still have days I would love a massive bag of crisps and loads of different types of bars and chocolates but I’m been strong and saying no.
I’m determined to loose the weight and not be the big girl with the pretty face as I have been called. And you wouldn’t believe the names I was called when I was younger it was cruel! And I’m on about my teenage years. I know it’s going to be a long process not just physically but also mentally.
I want to set a good example for my son and I know he will love me no matter what but I want to be able to run around after him and do exciting things. Not be the mammy watching from afar afraid and ashamed of how she looks.
Also I am doing alot better mentally I really have a good support group around me and I’m not putting pressure on my self anymore to suddenly be better. I am now setting goals and looking forward to the future.
So for now im concentrating on slimming world and getting healthy 🙂
