Thank you ;-)

Thank you for taking the time to read my blog- most of the time its rubbish (well probably all the time..)..

Tonight I decided to go for a long brisk walk- and while I did that I listened to the radio and checked my emails on my phone.. so tonight I found that I had two lovely new messages on my last post and reading these while I was walking made me go that bit faster!! It feels so good to know that other people out there can see a change in you, or are inspired by you. I always say it- but I never thought I was going to win the battle of the bulge- I actually thought it was impossible.

of course me and said bulge are still battling- I can see that it takes time, will power and little self control. I'm certainly not a saint when it comes to weight watchers- but I know its there-and I know its working. And I feel very empowered, like I know this big secret- I really want to help other people who have not yet discovered weight watchers.

I was getting so miserable and anti social by August 2008 (when I started)- and to be honest I thought- here we go, another disappointing diet I'm sure... gastric band next stop.

Gastric band- more like drastic band. Thankfully it didn't come to that- apart from the embarrassment and shame that I felt that it could come to that- I felt like a fat slob with no control.. and I'm sure others could think of worse things to call me..

So here I am, 6.5stone lighter (with a lot more to go) but I feel ten times that has lifted of my mind..
