New and 20lbs lost!!!

  • Hey,
    My name is Aoife and I'm 18 years old, I started WW on the 2nd of Feb 2008 and as in from today 23rd of March I've lost 20lbs! I've been on this site quite a bit since I started looking at sucsess stories for inspiration. And it's certanly helped! I can't describe how I felt fitting into a size 16 (UK) dress on my 18th Birthday, where usually I would have struggled to fit into an 18 or 20 beforehand

    Today I stepped on the scale and it read 92.3kg, that is .5kg less weight then I was at the beginning of the summer last year. I nearly cried. I have always been conciencious (sp?) of my weight my whole life, I remember thinking about losing weight when I was 165, 180, 185. But I didn't. I completely regret it now. I wish I was down at those digits again. I tipped the scale at 223 lbs and I am now 203 lbs.
    I hope I can find some more motivation to help me get to my goal of 132 lbs.

    Much Love.x.
    Aoife.

  • Hi Aiofe! What a lovely name. Doesn't it mean beautiful? I am new to the boards too. I can empathize with you. Having a weight issue is completely frustrating and antagonizing, but we can all overcome this together.
  • Yeah, It means either Beautiful or Radient. Whichever takes your fancy :P
    We can do this chickadee76! Woop!
    Thanks for the encouragement!
