The dress for the wedding

Well today im going to get a dress for my cousins wedding, ive waited till now because
as the weights been falling off me i thought theres no point spending money on a lovely new dress for it to be massive on me by the time comes.

This wedding was another thing that motivated me to lose weight i thought to myself next time me and my family have a huge get together i need to be slimmer i was getting sick of the sympathetic looks just because i'm fat doesnt mean im not a person !. Anyway im really excited to go shopping as theres way more choose nowadays im about a size 16/18 at the moment so i can now shop in places i couldnt before like river island, topshop just normal high street stores rather than just evans.

My mum is overweight too and has always struggled with her weight but i'm really proud of her as shes been doing the weight watchers diet at home and has managed to lose 6lb. My dad also attends the classes with me and has lost 4lb in his first week. Its easy doing it as a family because cant slip up on the dreaded crisps and chocolate in the cupboard because there is none.

Last night i had a really nice simple dinner. I made homemade wedges in the oven with wedges seasoning and a small chicken chagrill came to 13 propoints but it was really yummy and filled me up all night ..... i dont really no what im gunna eat for my meals today as im going to see the xfactor auditions live later so ill end up eating out.. im just going to take my eating out guide and hope for the best as its weigh day tomorrow * fingers crossed for a good loss*

changing me

some people who follow me on twitter told me i should set this up to tell people how i lost weight so i decided it would be a good idea... :)

Firstly i have always been overweight since i was really young its something i have always been troubled  by and hated i used to think i put weight on so easily but i think that was just my excuse for been an overeater and been in denial. I first attended weight watchers with my Aunty when i was 13 years old i was 12 stone 9lb and got down to 10.stone 10.5lb ( my lowest weight), i lost it really quickly and was really happy for the first time in my life. I didnt maintain my weight for long as i met my current boyfriend about 6 months later and fell in love at a young age and been in love does make you put weight on, i eat the same as him yet i put a lot of weight on. Since then i have been on numerous quick fix diets even going back to weight watchers another 2 times and slimming world i lost a couple of pounds and then would quit because i missed the food so much.

I didnt realise how much weight i had put on until this year i was struggling to fit into size 22 pants i hated it, my weight effected my emotionally i become moody and horrible and started to hate myself alot. My family always told me politely i needed to lose weight and i would put my defense up get angry or i would say im on a pretend diet. It wasnt until xmas 2010 when my grandad said to me he wanted to join weight watchers in january and he wanted me to join i agreed but didnt believe in myself as i have failed so many times.

11th January 2011 i started weight watchers again as soon as i got to the class and spoke to the leader i knew this time was different she said to me " if you stick with me and the plan (weight watchers plan) then you will be where you want to be no matter how long it takes" . I wasnt shocked when i got on the scales i think id become numb to it by then.  In my first week i lost 6.5lb and i was overjoyed i knew from then on i could stick to it. I never say im on a diet its a lifestyle change because im not on a diet i still eat anything i want if i fancy mcdonalds ill have it but i count my points everyday. In the 21 weeks that i have been attending ive lost 49lb (3 and 1/2 stone). I feel so much better already even though i have another 4 stone still to lose i know that eventually i will get there. Everyone always told me its hard to diet but i promise its not if u allow yourself the things u feel like but in moderation you WILL lose weight.
