It has been a while since I contributed anything, so I thought I would I would start by stating my original aim was to get to 80 Kilos (around 12 stone 8 pounds), which is what I was before I got ill some sixteen years ago. During 2020 I managed to reach the heaviest I have been as an adult, 94.8 Kilos (14 stone 13 pounds).
Thank you to Minniewinny’s constant encouragement, and the many other posts I have read, I am happy to say I am now back on track, being only 83 kilos (13 stone 1 pound). I started back on the 4th August 2020 to walk once again and watch my calory intake. I know it is a marathon, not a race, but I feel I am heading back in the right direction once again.
Sorry for letting myself down, and here is a song for those who are looking for some encouragement …
Now that you're out of my life
I'm so much better
You thought that I'd be weak without you
But I'm stronger
You thought that I'd be broke without you
But I'm richer
You thought that I'd be sad without you
I laugh harder
You thought I wouldn't grow without you
Now I'm wiser
Thought that I'd be helpless without you
But I'm smarter
You thought that I'd be stressed without you
But I'm chillin'
You thought I wouldn't sell without you
Sold 9 million
