OK so I know I'm a serial dieter, yoyo is my middle name! I also know that I'm probably at my heaviest weight right now.

Today I have been shopping. I caught sight of myself in a full length mirror. The only way I know it was me was because of the dress I was wearing! Honestly I hardly recognised myself:(

So I am off to join weightwatchers at 6pm in the hope that I can at last get my act together and lose some weight. I know this works, having done it before, just have to be more determined to keep it up this time.

I came home with new work out gear, hopefully that will spur me on:) Didn't buy anything else, everything looked hideous.

Good luck! My kick up the (gigantic) ass was a photo I was tagged in on facebook...wearing a tight reindeer onesie!

Sometimes it takes just one photo or image!

Mine, originally, was a photo of me in a vest top and cargo pants taken on holiday 3 years ago (abroad). I was just a tad over 13 stone. I'm still overweight but am just under 12 stone now, heading for 10/12lbs.

I had my shock on Sunday. Photograph of my children's christening with all godparents, me and DH.
I am short and fat...I honestly had no idea that is how I look.
Admittedly everyone in the photo (bar one) is at least 5 inches taller than me but I was really really shocked.
I'm 5'3 and 11.7 stone...two children and I look like I'm expecting a third.
Now I need to decide what to do to get back to my old self!
