I've just joined after a desperate search to find some moral support.
I lost about 2 stone last year to fit into a bridesmaid dress, I seem to have put it all back on so feeling a bit down.
Although I (think) I make fairly healthy choices with my food, and I exercise every now and then, this morning I had a health check session with a PT in my gym, he measured my body fat % - 47% of me is fat!!!!! That was a massive shock and has made me feel horrible about myself. It's the motivation that I need to get off my bum and sort myself out. Long way to go but the thought of getting the amount of fat off my body is so much more motivation than the number on the scales!
So, anyway, the point of this post is hello, and can I join you on your journeys?! xx
Just turn that negative experience in to motivation to get back to a healthy body! You did it last year so you can definitely do it again!
Im losing weight again also for the second time.. So I keep remembering that if I did it before, I can do it again!
Keep us updated how you're doing on your weight loss journey
Vicki, I'm sure I would be in for a big number if they measured my body fat percentage. You are not alone. I too am losing weight for a second time and find that I have to remember that it's not "impossible" when I get down in the dumps about not going as fast as I'd like. Please do keep us updated so we can cheer you on!
newbie - had a shocker this morning!
