Day 1

Well hello there

I'll try to log in every day, but not too sure If I'll be able to, But I will be honest. Any slip ups, cheats, highs and lows right here. I'll try to note down as much information as possible, for my own records and for anyone else reading.

So a bit about me. I'm 27. I've struggled with my weight for years. I used to be slim, unfortunately meeting my husband and eating man sized portions coupled with a desk job and development of PCOS meant that at my heaviest point I weighed 15 stone 7 lbs. I've tried every diet known to man (almost), Atkins, Weight Watchers, Scottish Slimmers, Slimming World, Detox, Slimfast, Cabbage soups... I estimate that I've lost and gained over 15 stone in a destructive cycle of getting so far and thinking "ach sod it" and derailing in a spectacular manner.

Currently I weigh 14 stones according to my counsellors scales this morning. I have approximately 3.5 stones to lose to take me to a goal weight of 10 stone 7lbs.

Each day I'll blog, if nothing else, how I've felt, how I've coped with the day and what I've had.
