I've been on a diet/lifestyle change since last Oct, have had weeks of being really strict and weeks of being not so strict but have done loads and loads of exercise and feel LOADS fitter.
I've gone down a dress size (from 18/20) to (16/18) in most dress shops which I'm chuffed to bits about however, I am STILL 14.10lbs. I was 15.4lb when I started, so that's 8lbs in 4months!?! That's rubbish isn't it? People have started commenting that I look slimmer, hubby said I'm looking 'great' and I know I've lost 2inches off waist and 1inch off each thigh and I know that's all good and great and I am chuffed and proud of myself BUT....I am STILL nearly 15 stone!
Friends keep saying, well it doesn't matter what your weight is, its what you look like, but surely it does matter if your weight is 3.5 heavier than you should be!
I'm on the pill and anti depressants, I chatted to the nurse about it and she said maybe the pill is making it hard for me to lose weight so I'm thinking I might come off it.
I do eat loads of carbs, bread, pasta, rice - all with veg, low fat stuff and I don't eat meat (much) or very much chocs, biscuits, crisps at all. I eat loads of fruit so that's not a problem so am guessing my problem is too many carbs and not enough water (I'm rubbish at drinking water or any drinks to be honest).
Any tips? I just want to have a moan really...driving me nuts that I'm just stuck, stuck, stuck....
