weigh too much

is what I weighed on my scales at home this morning. not too bad. a 3lb gain in the last 3 weeks...

at 5 foot 10 and a 1/2 I carry it fairly well...at least, I don't look like a barrel. I am a UK dress size 18 on the bottom and mostly a 16 on the top. only 2/3 sizes to lose. which is harder than it sounds as even when I got to below 14 stone last year (well, 2006) I was still a 16 so it's going to take a few stone to be a size fourteen.

what's so hard right now is that the house is full of festive treats and leftovers from our New Years party....and SO much booze.

it's the age old battle; does food = happiness, or does skininess?

answers on a postcard...

this isn't about starting over, or beginning again....it's about actually doing something I know works and STICKING TO IT. it's about concerted effort.

I have 4 1/2 stone to lose. I have 7 1/2 months to do it in. mathematically, it is possible, but it will be tough. i like food. all food. but particularly rubbish. but my wedding dress is more important than chocolate. that shall be my mantra.

so every Tuesday I weigh in and my weight loss will be recorded on line for anyone to see.

I just hope there will be a loss to see.......
