How?
The last time I blogged on here was in 2007, and when I opened this account in 2006 I weighed 4st less than I do now.
The scary thing is I did not notice putting on the 3st, I just notice it now. I notice that my size 26 jeans are tight, my double chin is twice the size making me look like a completely different person. I become breatheless when I walk up stairs.... I dread to think what I have done to my body. How the hell did I let this happen?
It's time.... it's not about looking nice and getting nice clothes anymore. It's about loosing weight to improve my health and making sure I do not cause myself any long term damage.
It's time.......... This is me. 20st 9lbs, morbidly obese!!!!!!

What is wrong with me......
First day of my new healthy eating thing and do not even make it past 10am, before I got down and dirty with some chocolate, a bit of cheese cake, some cheese and onion crisps washed down with a diet coke.... I mean, why bother with the Diet Coke, I should have gone full fat, everything else was!!!!!! and that was just the start....
What is wrong with me.....I did not even manage the first day with out eating rubbish... its utter madness!!!!!!!!!!!
I think I need to set myself a few simple goals this week to get focused. Here goes, this week I will:
* Have no more than 3 bad days this week ( I have already had one)
* Cycle for 30 mins a day at least
* Drink 2-3ltres of water a day.
* Try and write in this blog every day.
* WI on a Monday morning.
This is my first week of actually eating properly so I am aiming for some major weight lose ie 10lbs.
I alway have a big wieght loss my first week or so. Does anyone else?
See ya

I am giving up Diets......................
I am tired of dieting.
I have tried, Slimming World, Weightwatchers, Rosemary Conely, Paul Mckenna, Slim Fast, every diet you could think of and I am still , well, Fat. So I am going to try something completely different, something amazing, something simple.
I think I will call it......... Healthy Eating and Exercise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you might have heard of it?!?!?!
I spend my whole time either denying myself food or thinking of food and to be honest food is boring, well the junk food I eat and think about is boring, its making me dulll and , well, I have a bit of a life to be getting on with.
So, I am going to try and just relax, eat low fat healthy food, drink water and exercise 30 mins a day. I will give myself one day a week - A bad day I will call it -when if i want to eat terrible food to excess I can but only one day a week. Simple!!!!!!!! hmmmm let's hope so!
I am going to give it a month trial and see if lose weight .. it can't be worse can it?

WI 1, London, MATT DAMon and Borat all in one day. phew
I lost 3lb on my weigh on on Wednesday, not bad considering I had a few offish days.
I have a mini challenge from my friend at slimming world to lose 7lbs this week.
I have been so good for 2 days so far, and 2 a bit iffy! I have played badmington for an hour, aquaerobics for 1hr an a 45 min swim so far. So wish me luck.
My WI last week was brilliant, we had a few rewards, like woman of the year, Target member of the year. My Friend won Women of the year after losing 4st in 6mths. I am so happy for her, she looks completely different. its amazing. puts me to shame really!!!!!
In a few weeks time we will have Man of the year and Loser of the year. as you can guess it I am up for neither of those categories, simply because I have not actually lost any weight but put on 2lbs..... and well, I'm not a man, not matter how much I can drink!!
I went the to London Aquarium yesterday, it was my friends 30th and he fancied going before we drank excessive amounts of booze, ( actually I abstained) it was great, when you walk in there are 5 tanks of jelly fish, amazing creatures. I think that was my fav. However I will not bore with that but if you do have a chance to go do its great. I
Anyway after the aquarium, I ended up walking across the bridge to waterloo station when we noticed some filming , so we stopped and had a look, made sarcastic coments about how dull it was and how it was not like an action movie, like , die hard or bourne Identity. Hmmm Bourne Identity hey!
So we decided to continue on to the station. we stop for a moment for our friends to catch up, and when they did, they pointed out that , we had been standing next to MATT DAMON, yep this hollywood actor was an inch way.
Now this probely does not mean much to you guys but me country girl, that was the first hollywood person i have ever seen. apart from Billy Idol but I am not sure that counts. I understand how easy to look like a stalker,!!!!!! hehehe, as a few of my friends did not see him so I proceed to walk back and forth past him about 4 times, er STALKER!!!!! Then to end my famous experience I laughed so loud at my friends Joke, he, Matt Damon looked over and smiled at me! That was a proud moment for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! heheheheeheh!
After that I went to see Borat the movie in Kingston, have you seen that movie, okay, you have to have a sense of humour, especially if you are american, but is it funny. and cringe worthly, like watching a car crash!
Wow that was a long blog, My bacon sandwich is calling me,
Wish me luck with the 7lbs.
Hope you are all losing weight,

Day 2
Erm.......!
Friday is big breakfast day at work, ie. good old fashioned english fry up. I did go to the fruit salad bar I really did but then before I could say bacon and egg I was there already eating it.
Then of course as usual, I think I have blown it now, I may as well enjoy myself. So, lunch was a lovely chips and mush peas. The jelly sweets I had on the way home were also rather nice.
So, knowing that I am going to Kew tonight for food and drinks with friends. I have decided to make this a Flexi day, on my slimming world plan. In hope that I can take control, which will mean I wil not feel like i have been bad and end up saying that lovely sentanceI have said a thousand times. " I will start again on Monday" Well I could have lost 1lb by Monday.!!!!!! or put on3lbs !!!!!!!!
So just a flexi day, nothing bad still on diet but I will be using this blog heavilly over the weekend. Hope I don't bore you that much.........................!!!!!!!
Have a wonderful weekend

Day 1
So far so good, but of course it is only day one, or could it be day ten thousand the amount of times I have started again. But hey, never one to give up me, I am if I loose 2lbs a year I will be thin by the time I am... oh, where is that calculator. 80!!.
I have really got into my homemade Juicies, at the moment I am drinking a Carrot, celery,apple pear,pepper,curly kale,plum Juice and it is fab. I know its sounds gastly..... and always thought vegatable juice was just odd.......... You do need Ice tho! I have mostly vegs with just a little portion of fruit, I think then it is either free or a Healthy extra on Slimming World.
Anyway I have this evening to get through yet....... wish me luck

WI
I went to fat club tonight. I put on weight. I have put on a whopping ........
11lbs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yep 11lbs, in 10 days.
Deservidly so, I have eaten everything in the world. Mac donalds, KFC, Chinese, Indian, Chocolate, Crisps, Sweets. anything and everything. In fact it is actually disgusting the amount I have eaten considering there are people with no food. Anyway............. The weirdest thing is, It has actually made me fell ill, I was poorly any way, but I feel really grotty. I can also feel where I have put on the weight around my belly and bum. I have to remember this feeling, this feeling of digust.
So 26th October is the start of my new health eating plan.
What I want to achieve In October:
* Lose 14lbs
* Drink 2ltres of water a day.
Wish me luck

I am trying....
Hi Everyone,
I have been a bit poorly this week, so my food consumption has be diabolical, but hey you can not live in the past week. Just need to pick myself up and get on with it.
I am reading a good book at the moment called Slim 4 life, by the Juice master. It is quite good, lets hope it works. I think I must have read so many of these books from the F plan to you are what you eat.
Then I did like DR Gillian Mckeith and still watch her programme. I saw her do a presentation at the vitality show. Scary women considering she is 5 ft and 0 stone hehehe! Maybe someone should put me forward for her show, she might beable to sort out my failures in losing weight.!!!
Anyway I am 4 chapters into slim 4 life, so I will let you know how it is?!?!?
One thing I am hoping is that I will never diet ever again!!!!
Okay, so badmington tonight with my friends from fat club. We went last week, it was so much fun, and what exercise, I was sweating afterwards....... who would have thought hitting a shuttlecock could be so much fun.
Shuttlecock, I wonder who decided to call a cork thing with feather's a shuttlecock .... They must have had a sense of humour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Take care

Hmmm
Well, 16th September was the little start to my new life. I went to the gym, I ate healthy and I lost 6lbs. and then I did nothing, I don't know. but I have now put back on the 6lbs and am feeling crappier than ever.
WHY?
I am feeling really down about this. I can't do it, I am spending all my energy on trying to loose weight it is exhausting, failure after failure.
There has got to be a way of doing this.
EAT LESS and EXERCISE
Quite simple really! so why can I not do these two things. No actually the problem is not being able to do them ,as you can see I can do them as I loose weight, but why can I not do them for more than two weeks.
Do I want to stay fat? is it an excuse to not have to deal with things if all I am dealing with is my weight.
I need to relax.
You see I a have read so many diet books, I think I forget what I am surposed to eat. Hmmm that will be the new thing!
" Diet Syndrome"!!!
I have to remember Eat Healthy and Exercise that is it, Thats all I have to do, it is not hard, it is quite easy when I think about it.
There must be a trigger, that sents someone going. I had two bearevments last year, and I now think about death unlike I did before. I know I am a 33 yr old person who is 7st over weight, I am a ticking bomb, if I do not do something about it. BUT still nothing, I am still eating the crappy food that makes me feel sick and ill. I am still not exercising, which I really enjoy, I have found a love for Cycling and swimming, but still nothing.
I apologise for I moan, I am just a bit tired of it all, and hope this is the final straw to kick me into action. Remember all I have to do is eat healthy and exercise, it's not that hard!
I will be going to fat club tomorrow, When I will start again, I will use that as my new start weight. hmmm, I am doing the whole start tomorrow thing arn't I...................!!!!
Again, I am going to try and keep a proper blog, so I hope I do not bore you all too much. Hope you are all losers!!!!!
Speak tomorrow
Lynds
