This is my motivation to stay on track as it were. After having 2 kids in quick succession, my waistline suffered a fair bit! So I decided to join the gym and fat fighters in my bid to get fit and lose weight. I started my journey weighing 12st 3.5lb (171.5lb) iggy: So far its going well and I have lost 23.5lb since 17th March and touch wood I am STILL losing! I am 5ft 2.5" and I would like to get down to 8st 7lb (119lb). I follow the plan and I get weighed weekly on tuesdays.

Starting Measurements
Chest - 37"
Waist - 33"
Hips - 41"
Upper Arms - 13"
Thighs - 24"
Calves - 16"

Having a really good week! I'm really hoping for a good weight loss this week, have been down the gym every day this week, I must be mad! But I feel really good for it! Had sneaky peak on scales 10st 6lb (146lb) and I don't get weighed "officially" until tuesday! So I have real hope of achieving my mini goal of 2 stone (28lb) weight loss sooner rather than later!
