New and losing weight already

  • Hi im new
    My name is Amy
    i started my diet on Sunday 6th of July...

    I weighed myself that night out of curiosity....and was totally disgusted by what I saw. I weight 71.6kgs. Im only 20 years old and am 166cms tall!

    I started a journal and food diary with fit day and when i put in my weight it said i was moderatly overweight! how depressing.

    Even more depressing is that i work in a gym. I cannot be overweight in a gym!!!!!

    Anyway after doing some research I decided to start the cabbage soup diet just to give me a kick start. That lasted one day, not because of the soup...it actually tasted pretty good, but because it just wasnt convenient...so im goin to do it when i have some holidays!

    So for the past week and a half I have been cutting calories and actually using my free gym membership.

    So far I have lost 3.9 kilos.... just shows how much junk i was eating before!!!

    i want to be under 65kgs for my 2 year anniversary on the 28th of this month.
    My second goal is to be 58kgs by my 21st birthday on 26th of August!

    Well thats my story!!!!

    xxxxxxxxxx

  • Welcome!
  • welcome aboard
  • and congratulations on you success so far . . . keep up the great work, Chickie.
  • Yay! How exciting!! I am so happy that you have started with success....keep up the good work. I used to work in a gym and know how it feels to be in a place where you are surrounded by active individuals and ways to improve yourself, and not take advantage of it. Keep a positive attitude and do it for yourself ;o)
  • WELCOME!!!
  • Welcome to 3FC!
    Hello, Amy,

    Sounds like you have a great start!

    I am relative newbie to 3FC, but have been using fitday for a while to record food calories and exercise. The two sites together are a great pair.

    I am sure you will keep making that free gym membership an advantage.
  • thanks everyone.
    i want to post quite alot on here as i know quite alot about health, weightloss, nutrition and exercise as these are the areas I have worked in for the past 3 years.

    I have worked at 2 gyms, a personal training provider and a diet place called SureSlim as well as having an addiction to Les Mills group fitness classes and to most womens health/fitness/weightloss magazines know to man! lol
