Hi World!

[Pombear]

Hi everyone, I have been on and off diets throughout the last two years. My most successful weight loss was losing 40 pounds two years ago. Since then I left my ex-partner, my grandmother passed away, got engaged to my new partner and have just completed my photography degree. The gym just got a back set through all of this but I aim to radically change that!

I now weigh an embarrassing 14 stone (196 lb) and am a UK size 18/20. I use to never see it but I can now hardly fit into any of my clothes now! My ideal weight would be 11 stone and a size 12 UK clothing. Aiming to lose 42 lbs at 2lbs per week.

Today is a new day. I joined my local leisure centre yesterday and have my induction at lunchtime today. I hope by joining this forum I can use it as an online diary to record my journey and meet new people.

Hi Pombear,
Sorry to hear about all the drastic changes in your life. It is always a great feeling to start a new. That is the reason why I am hear and mostly to get motivation. I guess once I start to hear people's success, it makes me want to get out and push myself. I know it can be hard and very challenging but we will make it! Good Luck to ya!
