Introducing myself!

Hi! I’ve been lurking for a while and being inspired so thought I’d tell you a bit about myself.

I first had success with weight loss when I was 20, I overcame binge eating/bulimia and lost 8 stones as a result and kept it off for about 17 years. During that time I found a love for lifting weights and had a fairly active job which all helped keep the lbs off. About 4 years ago I moved to an office job and my weight slowly crept up. I was also diagnosed with endometriosis which also hampered my efforts. Then along came COVID and I gained another 1.5 stones in a short time.

I finally decided enough was enough when I stood on the scales and I was only 2 stones off my heaviest weight! I also broke my wrist during lockdown and that made me more focused and determined to get healthier.

I started walking 15000 steps every day , going to the gym 3 times a week and doing a form of IF and limiting alcohol; I also started following more positive social media and unfollowed a lot of unhelpful stuff which has helped.

So far I have lost just under 3 stones and would ideally like to lose another 2. I haven’t really found it difficult as I already knew what to do and the right time presented itself. I’m glad to find a positive place to share my progress!
