Fat Club

Well, I've discovered that this time...I can't lose the weight myself...in fact I've gained a good 20lbs in the past year! (Shock! I know!) So I went back to Fat Club or rather Slimming World. I lost 15lbs on it before but never reached my goal...quit as I thought I could do it on my own. I was doing ok until we went home in November for 2 weeks...and then it was Christmas...and then we went to New Zealand for three weeks in February...and then I had my surgery and stopped exercising...and then we went to Boston in May...and then we went to Riga in July...I eat and drink FAR too much on holiday.



So I knew it wasn't good as my fat pants (trousers) are getting a wee bit snug on me...and those are the only pair that still fit me...So I figured something needed to be done. I have 7 months till the wedding which is plenty of time to lose 25lbs. As of this morning's count I've lost 5lbs...and I've not done that well on following the plan this weekend. But it'll get better...I hope! I'm hoping for a 3lb loss on Thursday (at least!)



I'd like to lose a stone (14lbs) by the time I go away for my hen weekend in September. It's doable...and I'm going to sign up for the Cancer Research 10K which will force me to train again...which always helps!



This is what I want to look like (at least!) by my wedding....

This is what I look like at the moment...
