The story so far...

Tonight I have decided, I'm going to blog my way through my last 14lbs weight shed. I need something to motivate me, at the moment my headspace isn't enough, so I'm looking to you web space! People may read this, people may not, but fingers crossed it will help.

My story so far is that my weight has fluctuated, up, down, up, down since I was about 18 - in other words for the last decade. Last year I 'ran' a marathon. I weighed 15stone at the start of my training, and 15 stone at the end! Sick of feeling fat and self conscious, I turned to the Cambridge Weight Plan. I had dabbled in CWP previously and it really worked for me, until I cut corners following the steps up to maintenance, this time around I refused to do that! And it worked! I went from 15st down to 12st. At 5'8" that was my target and I got there by the end of working through the steps! Go me! Then, through a combination of my new found exercise regime and healthy eating habits, I lost another 7lbs and felt fabulous! I was back to my 17 year old self's size! 

Then... December hit! With my birthday and Christmas, and my mum's milestone birthday I've stalked back up to 12 stone. My target is to get to 11 stone, and as of tomorrow I want to be back in the game! I'm currently training to be a CWP consultant (keep your fingers crossed for me!) and I want to help other people feel as good as I do!

So, my pledge, is to update this space with what I am doing to ditch those 14lbs. I'll try to post my exercise regime, meal plans, recipes etc and updates of their effects! My plan for next week is to reduce my caloric intake to approximately 1,000 per day and get into the gym 6 times this week (that will probably reduce back down to 4 once I shed the first 7lbs). If you're interested in following my progress or seeing what hints I have then please do follow the page for new posts.

Until then, here are some before and afters...
