I have always been on the big side. No thats not really true prepuberty I was small. I like most people who are over weight have tried and treid but everytime the weight comes back and seems to bring friends with it. But now at 36 I want to do this for ME not my husband not my kids not my family, but ME.
I am one of the lucky ones I suppose you could say as i am not overweight (hey lets call it for what it really is Morbidly Obese) for eating the wrong foods or even too much food. I fall under the I don't eat enough which most people go huh. I find that I am only eating maybe once or twice a day so my body is constantly in stravation made and stores everything I consume as if it is its last meal. Hence the weight just packs on.
I am currently 132kg or 291 pounds which would be great if I was over 7 foot tall but at only 5.1 not so much.
I am hoping that by doing this I am making myself accountable not only to myself (who lets face it is the one person we really ever lie to and never feel guilty about) and funny enough Shay Butler who I have only been watching since Sept 2014. I found the shaytards while trying to distract myself from organising my father Inlaws funeral arrangements. For once that day I was crying from laughing. Then from there I found shay's weight loss channel. His This is My Year Video was just me waiting out the Christmas special but it hit a cord. And hey if his eldest son can give up sugar for 12 months at the age of 11 (don't quote me) I think I can do this for me.
