Losing Weight

I think now's the time to start with one of my issues, or the issue.

I was never obese or unhealthily overweight. I was like a twig until the age of about eleven when i grew a bum and boobs and never looked back. For years i was really unhappy but never did anything about it. I think my heaviest was 13 stone and a size 14.

Here are pictures of me from three years ago:







After i finished university i decided to stop moaning and do something about it. I started going to the gym, running and eating healthily. Healthy eating is still an issue for me but ill talk more about that later. 

At first i wasn't noticing a difference but i was feeling much happier within myself. I bought a special notebook which i keep all my random to -do lists and thoughts in and wrote down my stats, which i'll be sharing in my next post as this one will be too long!


This is what i currently look like. These pictures were taken in May/June but i think I've put on a few pounds since then.




I'm currently a size 12 and weigh just over 11 stones. I would love to be a small 12 and weigh 10 stone, i don't think that's an unhealthy realistic goal at all. I feel like i really need to tone my tummy, thighs and back fat and ill do this the healthy way with moderate exercise and writing down my stats every fortnight. The main issue for me is probably my diet. I don't eat complete junk but i don't think I'm eating enough of the good stuff or eating enough calories. I've tried making food diaries before but give up or forgotten after a few days. I'm really going to stick to a food diary this time, keeping a small notebook in my bag so i can write it down on the go.
