Hello People

Hello, I have no friends on here, and I have never posted a diary or anything, but I come on here often
Because it keeps me motivated etc.

So, I started off my weight loss journey 3 months ago and have lost a happy 33 pounds, from 226 to a current 193. But, I still have a long way to go. My ultimate goal is to get down to 140, but I have mini target goals in-between to keep my focused and break the massive challenge ahead of me manageable.

But it CAN be done. And it WILL be done

I’ve done it before, in 2003 I was 13 stone and unhappy with my appearance and had a low self esteem. I managed to lose 3 stone in half a year. But I didn’t maintain my weight and three years on gaining more than I ever was. So, yeah, maintaining your weight is just as important as losing it because it comes on with vengeance. It’s not nice looking back on them ‘skinny’ photos and remembering how fantastic I felt and looked.

However, I am “in the zone” as my mum says, and am now down to 193. So that’s 33 pounds down.

Basically I do cardio for about an hour 3 times a week, which included a body combat session at my leisure center on a Monday, spinning on Wednesday, and over an hour at the gym on Sunday. And I have been doing that for these 3 mouths and… IT HASN’T BEEN THAT HARD!!!

So if anyone has read this, and are on a similar journey as I am, and fancy being a weight loss buddy, id love it!
PEACEEEX X X X
 
I have no friends on here,
that'll change pretty quickly :) diaries bring in instant buddies :)

glad you decided to start yourself up a diary :D

Body combat session? that sounds both intense and intriguiing - what do you doo in that class?

Way to go on being down 33lbs - and for your positive attitude - that does make a difference on this journey and it does make it a little easier :)

Enjoy your stay here and can't wait to learn more about you :D
 
OHHH happy

Oh I’m so excited, some communication I love it!

Body combat is like pre-choreographed cardio workout inspired by martial arts Karate, boxing, Taekwondo, Tai Chi and Muay Thai etc and I love it.

I’m going to post some before and after photos of my 33 pound loss because there is a significant difference. Well I think the first photo at my highest weight is just a really bad photo and the second one is kind, a mixture between the photography and actual weight loss!

im going to try and do the photo thing.
im a bit of an idiot
so i might not be able to figure it out
ill try!
 
there's a before and after pictures thread that are better for photos - pictures don't attach really well in diaries... :D
