Hi everyone and merry Christmas to you all. 
I know resolutions usually start on new years day but today on the kids new Wii I was classified as obese and that was a major slap in the face.
Two years ago I was super fit and 20kilos lighter after spending the previous 18months trimming down my fat, flabby and forty year old body. It was a hard slog but I got there. The old gall bladder waved its white flag and I had that removed. Since then I have succeeded in regaining all I had lost and some more…..
I would like to tell you about my year and how I managed to gain 14kgs but this is a public forum and suffice to say that it has been a very tough and personal journey with the loss of a dear friend in tragic circumstances, business challenges, injuries (I broke my ankle needing surgery to have it pinned and plated) and the everyday problems we all face.
I would really appreciate the support of my shattered confidence and self esteem as I know what is expected of me to succeed as far as nutrition and exercise, but I do struggle being “nice” to me and not feeling that I am selfish if I take time out. I always say “its only me that’s ok” and then feel angry with everyone else for treating me that way.
My starting weight is 94kg, I am 175cm tall and my goal is to get back to 73kg by next Christmas.
Looking forward to meeting you all and sharing our ups and downs. Downs being the kilos of course!!!
