So, hellloooo...
Right, just over a year ago I decided I would start the blog again - yeah I massively failed.
I always felt so busy and as if I didn't have time to blog but things have changed therefore I have now MADE the time to start this thing again.
Now... the blog is going to be different to my original idea and to be honest, it would be great to have followers but, if I don't, I'm pretty cool with that too as I'm going to use this as a sort of diary (that's alright isn't it?)
So a bit about me. I've been overweight pretty much through all of my teenage years and early 20's. I've battled with diets for years but never got very far with them. However, I now have a goal - My boyfriend of 7 years has asked me to marry him! For most women this is their dream, a big dress, a big day, everyone looking at you. To me, this is my idea of HELL. The last thing I want is everybody looking at me squeezed into a wedding dress. The thought of it makes me cry.
So today I have made the first step to getting in that wedding dress and joined the Cambridge diet. I'm on Sole Source - this consists of three meal replacements a day and LOTS of water. I met with my consultant yesterday for the first time and we went through the plan and I had my weight and measurements taken. At the moment I don't feel comfortable posting my weight but promise that next time I post I will start with aallll my stats and photos. I have 8 stone to loose so as you can probably tell, I am slightly....... large!
I had a chocolate mint shake this morning, followed by a strawberry shake for lunch. I tried my best to prepare myself for the awful taste I knew would come and the fact that I would probably have to force it down. Truth is - they actually don't taste bad at all, in all honesty, I quite enjoyed them! Such a relief, makes me feel slightly more positive about the journey I'm starting. I've also drunk 3 litres of water already today so I know I will be fine with that. I have one more 'meal' to have later today so might try a porridge?
I'm going to leave it here today but I WILL update weekly and will be completely honest about my journey (will even tell you if I cheat!)
See you in a week :)
