Just takes forever

While sitting in front of the log burner all winter, I tucked into sweets, chocolate, ice cream and cake. Over the months clothes started to get tight, so I started to wear the ones that had give in them!! Reaching 19st 4lbs was the last straw, but it all takes time, it went on easily. I am on day 30 and now at 18st 9lbs I want it to come off faster, but know I will have to continue to work at it.

It has been hard, sometimes I look back and remember when i was fit enough to do the Great North Run, now I find it hard to walk to the end of the farm lane (1mile).

Will keep going, onwards and upwards, no, downwards!! Hee hee.

Congrats to you. I've piled on about 25 pounds in about two years and cannot seem to shake it, so I know the feeling. I'm glad you're seeing progress.
