Hello From Surrey !!!! - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

Newjourney · 08-04-2002, 10:17 AM

Good Afternoon All !!

My name is Tracey and I am a fat chick in Surrey !

I have recently been diagnosed with PCOS which has accounted for my HUGE (

) weight gain. I am 5 foot 1 and now weight 18stone 1lb. I have been prescribed Metaformin which I am going to start taking tomorrow coupled with a brand new excercise regime (god help the swimming pool !!) and a low carb diet - apparently low carb is reccommended for people with PCOS ! Anyways - wanted to drop by and say Hello, introduce myself and hopefully make some new friends ! I would love to hear from anyone and everyone - especially people that have as much to lose as me !!! My goal weight is 9 stone although this is obviously a LONG way off I am taking it one step at a time !

I am 27, Single and live in Surrey.....Hope you are all well on this Sunday afternoon and look forward to hearing from you all soon

Take Care

Tracey

Hi Tracey,

I am also Tracy (but without the 'e') I am 5'5 and currently weigh 18stone 8 which is the highest i have ever weighed - just before christmas i was down to 17 1/2 stone following the Sw plan but, due to one thing and another, have regained a stone and a bit. I am now back on plan and hope to, eventually, get down to around 10 stone - a very daunting journey!

Good luck on your journey - keep us posted as to how it is going and i am sure that you will find a lot of inspiration around here.

Hi Tracy... Thanks so much for the reply - it was great to hear from you

I have now completed my first day low carbing and taking metaformin and so far I`m doing OK !! ... I am going swimming tomorrow morning before work ... Seems like a good idea now but I`ll let you know how I feel when I have to get up at 5.30 tomorrow morning and get in a pool !!!
