Right so I’m 22, in the last year of my degree and weigh 134lbs… I’m 5ft3 and want to get down to 117lbs… roughly a stone to loose.. thing is when you’re on the petite side every single lbs makes such a difference..
I put on a lot of weight since I went to university and going on and coming off the pill made it even worse. I started my diet Mon and so far so good! Haven’t looked at the scales yet as worried it may discourage me, once maybe twice a week I say!
I’ve been struggling to lose this weight on and off for over 3 years- I’ll lose it and then put it straight back on again. I’m really finding it a burden not only from self-confidence which goes through massive highs and lows as a result but with the spiral on effects- how I behave with my long term boyfriend because of my body confidence dips.. it also concerns me as this becomes more of an obsessive thing- my relationship with food becomes more and more obsessive. Majorly comfort eating, bingeing and then obsessing over minor calories and numbers.
My aim! Working on the GI Diet (I think it’s a healthy balanced way of re-working my relationship with food- a plan for life as it were) and regular exercise I plan to lose the weight over the next 2 months and KEEP IT OFF!
Couple of problems already in the way of my goal.. I’m in the middle of my finals at the mo so am spending all day in the library- not much time for exercise and feeling a bit stressed this would be the time I’d most likely comfort east… but I’m determined to start changing now in time for my summer ball 6 weeks away (3rd June).. if I could lose half the weight by then I’d be really happy : )
Also nervous about eating out in restaurants and eating at the boyfriends house who even when I’ve told him serves portions 4 times the size of what I should be eating!
I’ve ordered the diet pill Zantrex 3 to help get off to a kick start.. just to get me through that initial craving stage etc and try to start new habits, it arrives tomorrow so that’s when I’ll start taking it. Bit nervous- only ever taken kelp tablets before to increase metabolism, but am feeling a bit desperate now.
Wish me luck!! xxx
