I have just seen my ice bucket challenge video and am horrified! I knew I was getting fatter but have been in denial! I am a size 20 but a colossal weight. I am going to start with clean eating and back to the gym. Has anyone else had a big wake up call and used it to motivate you successfully?

2 years ago, in the space of a few days

  • 4 yo DS asked me if I was having another baby, because "you are so fat"
(DD was 10 months old)
  • I had a medical for life insurance and weighed 95 kg. My policy went up about £30/month.
  • I could not fit any of my work clothes after mat leave
  • A friend joined Slimming World. I asked if I could go with her the following week. 4 months later I'd lost 3 stone and was back to where I should be.

I think it does take a shocking wake up call to motivate you. Congratulations - you've had yours!!! Good luck.
