Hi All,
Sheesh, is it really April already? My gosh this year is flying by, which is worrying for me really as for the last four months my weight has plateaued. I joined the site back in May last year with the ambition to lose around 30 - 40 pounds. I started off at 211.5 pounds and as of 10:00am this morning, I am 185 pounds, which I am pretty chuffed with. My goal weight back in 2011 was 177 pounds, so I've almost made the 30 pounds marker. If i'm honest throughout 2012, although I have still wanted to lose weight, I haven't actually put much effort it, which may explain why my weight has remained so stable.
From now on I really need to up-the-anti. I've decided that if I regularly post pictures of myself, when I have lost weight, or even *gulps* if I have gained a little, it will serve as a reminder of what I really want to achieve!
Unfortunately, I only used the site in 2011 for just a few weeks, I had few big changes in my life that I had to adapt to and the forums got cast to the back of my mind. However, I found that they really helped. Reading people's diaries and listening to advice really spurred me on. So I'm back again, hoping it will do the same in 2012. I'm a bit of a chatterbox and am looking forward to meeting new people!
