June, 2014

I haven't posted on here for a while because I have been blogging on the WW site.  I'm not sure if anyone is reading these post but I thought I would update my progress.
So far I have lost 9.5 kilos and I'm feeling fitter and healthier.  I won't say it's been easy because it haven't, it's been hard work and staying focused and being determined to feel better about myself has definitely being a big motivator.
Two weeks ago my feet were killing me, every day I would come home from work and have to ice my foot and rest it as much as I could.  I went to Athletes foot and got fitted for some work shoes, and if haven't had a bad day with my feet since.  It's amazing how supportive shoes have made a huge difference.
I am going to the gym 3 or 4 times a week.  I must say I'm feeling like its getting a bit addictive lol but I do love how I'm feeling stronger in my muscles.  My knees are no long aching at night and I'm not getting out of breath when trying to walk a long distance.
It's been quite a challenge to firstly plan my diet "low fodmap" as well as weight watchers.  I still struggle with why I crave for sweet things that never seem to satisfy.  The IBS is and most probably be an issue with me, with mostly good days and the occosional bad ones.
I love the feeling of my clothes getting too big, I've gone from size 20 down to a size 16.
Feeling very pleased with myself.
