2012 a year for weight loss! New beginnings. :)

[Gez]

Hello all.


I am a serial yo-yo dieter. I used to be 16 stone = 224 pounds in 2006.


I reached my peak in September 2010 when I was 11 stone = 154 pounds.


I was really happy with myself at that point, though I did not go about it too healthily and it was not sustainable.


Since then I have been been up and down and I currently sit as of Monday (09/01/12) at 12st 1 pounds (168 pounds) and am feeling pretty rubbish about it. None of my clothes fit me now and I refuse to buy a size bigger.


I am 5'11, so I would like to be around 10st. 10pounds. (150pounds) and I would be very happy!


This is my eventual goal, so I am hoping I can do it!


That's just my story - I will leave weekly updates and weigh in for those of you who check/read things.


Wish me luck :-D

Hey Gez,

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on taking the decision to control your life! I think you will find some very supportive people here. The good news for me on this site is that we can say it all...and not feel embarrassed or ashamed about our feelings about weight, weight loss etc...things, for whatever reason, I find it hard to talk about with close friends and family.

I would encourage your to post every day...something about the rigor in that, help keeps me honest with myself.
