Honesty time...
Two weeks ago, MrD and I decided we were going to eat healthier and lose some weight. He, I must say, looks fine to me, but he wants to lose about 10lb. Me on the other hand, well I have loads to get rid of.

| Two Years ago....and 96lbs later |
Two years ago, through unhappiness, illness and depression, I weighed an embarrassing 306lb. Before I moved to the US, I had lost and amazing 96lb in less than a year
But, unfortunately, married life agrees with me,,, so much so.. that in this the first year.., I have gained 26lb of it back. So, two weeks ago, it was time to take stock, and do something about it.
Now....Im a great one for believing that, even when dieting, your food should be appealing to the eye and full of flavour. Im not one for cardboard food. I could never stick to a diet if thats all I could eat. So I have been eating 'normal' food, but tweaking the recipes so they are lower in fat and calories.,,just like the ones above
Thats how I lost the 96lb in the first place...and it seems to be working now.. In the last two weeks I have lost 8.8 lb....and hubby has lost 3lb.

| My previous wedding..and the happier one |
The plan is...Im going to concentrate on getting back down to what I was on my wedding day..this my current one..not my last one... So 18lb to go. Then I will think about getting below 200lb.. Then I will take it step by step til I reach a comfortable weight.
I have a long journey ahead of me...but by the Summer..I shall be a much healthier..and.. hopefully leaner person
Love and Hugs
