Morning, I am a ‘repeat-er’. I tried Fast Diet earlier this year and lost about 6 lbs which I was pleased about. I did this along with a ‘group meeting’ club for about a month. I quit that ‘club’ and ventured out on my own & really stop trying fasting…. big mistake! I’ve gained 5 lbs back and been on a plateau for months now. I don’t want to have to go to a club to get my ambition going, I’d rather do an exercise class once or twice/week and keep walking/jogging on my own like I have for years.

I have a goal now…first to lose up to a stone by mid January for a winter family holiday and then by Spring next year to lose up to another stone. I have mates visiting the UK (we hope) this next April. I want to feel and look good by the time I see my old mate and we go places and not feel lethargic and frumpy. I do this for myself but also yes, vanity..LOL! I’m quite muscley sp? built so I’ll never be thin but “healthy” sounds so much better for myself who’ll be 50 in a couple of years…
