A New Me???

Today I have started The Fast Diet.  I’ve heard really encouraging things about this and a good friend of mine swears by it.  Not just for the weight loss but lots of other health benefits it can bring you.  Today is a fasting day, you fast (only taking in 500 calories) for two days a week and eat normally for the other five days.  I’m extremely overweight and I need to loose at least 4 stone to make me look anything like normal again.  This weight has crept up over the last four or five years and I managed to make myself  believe that it didn’t matter - well it does.  Seeing myself in the photos of my sister-in-law’s wedding the other week horrified, disgusted and ashamed me.  I can’t understand what my husband sees in me, why he’s still with me.  So, today is the first day of the rest of my life...

Good luck with the diet. My friend's husband does this diet- he lost about 14 pounds and says he feels great with it. The best thing though is that he has more energy. I'm thinking about starting it when I get back from my vacation.

As you can see I am rather behind on blog reading but I hope you succeed with this. Losing weight is really hard - good luck x

Thank you. Just over half a stone gone already with what seemed like the minimum effort. This is definitely the way to go for me. x
