This is my story
Feel like a new woman. Am doing Zumba twice a week and am trying to loose my last 7 pounds before flying off with the girls to Spain. Have had a defil so I can try to eat sensibly and loose weight. I want to eat a bit healthier now rather than having a really tight band and pbying all the time. I find that way I feel pretty bad a lot of the time and I still don't lose weight.
What I wrote in January 2007:- I am currently at my heaviest ever and in real trouble! I've struggled with my weight all my life. In my teens and twenties I yo yoed up and down but could always manage to get the weight off. Since having two children and stopping smoking and getting older - I can't do it anymore! Every day I wake up and say this is the day I am going to start and by 11 am I'm throwing in the towel! I know what I should be eating I know wha'ts good for me but I just can't do it. I've tried every diet, every diet club, hypnotherapy etc and I've even had the prescribed drugs.
This summer we went to Italy and had to go to one of those wet and wild type parks with the kids - there was a tube made from concrete and obviously as my rubber ring was so squashed I moved very slowly down the slide and got stuck several times! I went for a rest on the sun bed and, you got it, broke the sun bed in two! I was too embarassed to sort it out so hid in the pool while my husband explained that he had broken it!
When visiting the colesseum the attendants (all looking sexy and italian) had a good laugh at me going through the turnstyle - I could read their minds "don't fancy yours much"!
To add insult to injury could hardly do the seat belt on the plane on the way home - had to really struggle to get it closed and it dug into me the whole way - I didn't dare go to the loo in case I couldn't get it fastened again.
Recently came the final straw - our staff conference. Part of the day was drumming and you were given a big drum which you fastened round your waist - there was no way I was going through that so made excuses and played the cow bells instead! Everyone had great fun and looked really relaxed and happy. I was absolutely dying with embarassment and was sweating to boot.
It is all hilarous if a comedy sketch show but devasting when it's you - so why don't I just diet and get rid of some of it???????????
Got my surgery booked for the 18th/19th January and going to go for it. Life is passing me by - I'm missing out on opportunties.
