I am about 5'4 and weigh 10st 11lbs, a (little wobbly) size 14. My friends thought I was a 12 so I don't suppose I look as bad/big as I do. It's not dreadful but it's the biggest I've ever been, I'm having no more kids (have 3) and am turning 40 mid December.
At the end of November dh and I are going to NYC for 6 days. I am committed to losing some weight- ideally I'd like to be below 10 stone for the holiday and to enter my 40s. I am prepared to commit to eating only good things for the full month of November but apart from the obvious I don't know where to start. Previously if I've needed to lose weight I just cut out the crap and 6 lbs would eventually fall off but as I get older this is no longer the case.
I love bread, butter, cheese, all the things bad for my weight, so I know I need to cut/lose them. Where do I start? What can I have? What should I really just not have at all? What can I substitute and what with? I thought I ate well last week (no sweets, crisps, snacks in the evening etc) but no weight difference this morning.
Please give me all your hints and tips and what I can do that is also do-able while still feeding 3 kids.
