SARAH S
Here comes the new me
Well on Easter Sunday I will be 50 OMG!!!!!
This time last year I was 20+ st and after alot of soul searching I told my husband I wanted a bypass. As a family we scrimped and saved and in early Sept I went private and had my op. I have now lost just over 5stone and am happy with that.
We all know that there's a but coming........
But I have become complacent and am not eating enough either calories or protein. I am drinking wine socially most evenings and I have of course stopped my weight loss.
Don't get me wrong I am not expecting you to pat me on the back for my weight loss so far or tell me it will be okay.......I know what I have to do and so here I am declaring that I'm back on track ...I intend to up my calories (sensibly)...... take in more protein.....stop drinking the wine ...and I want to be closer to my hospital target by April (13st7lb).
I'm making this post to help me get on with it!!
On my 50th birthday, which is just over 7weeks away, I want to be able to go out with my head held high having either reached target or to have it in sight. So thats 18lbs I need to shift!!
This morning I am 14st11lb and I have started with a proper breakfast of wholemeal seeded toast spread with primula and ham.....good calories and a dose of protein
I may even become a bore and post all my meals here then you can slap me if I'm going wrong!!
