Hi all!
Two years ago after graduating university I completed the NHS weight loss programme and went from 215 lb to 185lb, I was so extremely proud of my accomplishments and still am. Nearly a year and half later I have put back on 5lb so back up to 190lb, which I think i've done brilliantly to keep that weight off and am still very proud. I did need some time off of being so particularly concerned with everything I was eating, I still ate healthy and used good portion sizes but life really caught up with me with the passing of my uncle from cancer, losing my dog, and continuing a very difficult long distance relationship. However here I am now ready to get started again on the next leg of my journey with a goal of losing 20lb over the next 12 weeks. I was supposed to be getting married in June but with lockdown have had to postpone to next June. I am thinking positively in that this gives me time to get back to feeling fit and healthy.
I actually started back at eating healthy and working out two weeks ago but I am not seeing and changes in my body yet which really comes down to the fact I keep using the weekend as an excuse to eat everything and anything I want. I wonder if anyone else is feeling this way but I need to start to get back to something more healthy and balanced rather than sticking to the calories I should during the week and treating the weekend like it doesnt count!
Anyways I am back and really excited about being apart of this community again Xx
