5 stone to go

[Droppingdown]

It’s time I tackled the excess weight and got back to where I’m happy! I have set my initial goal at 12st, which is half a stone under the top healthy BMI for myself at 5”10 and will adjust accordingly once I’m there until I get to where I am happy
CW:17st 1.5lb
GW:12st
5st 1.5lb to go!

I’ve always been active, but the last year with a baby, toddler and working from home instead meant I wasn’t walking as much as I’d usually do, and my pre baby 4-5 gym classes a week haven’t been on since March. My youngest is no longer breastfeeding so it’s time I got myself back to a figure I feel happier with, and healthier to boot!
No set diet, just a case of 10,000 + steps a day, les mills on demand classes and spinning from home and stopping snacks, counting calories and plodding through the pounds.
I am posting here to keep myself accountable but if anyone wishes to join me in slimming down along the way you are very welcome

Hiya @Wobblywibblywoo, it’s up & down here too unfortunately. When I’m working and the kids are at nursery I’m great at eating well, more exercise etc. But as soon as they’re here I tend to end up snacking and eating more with them. I’m currently trying to log my meals for the day in the morning to see what I have to play with and then I can deter myself from the extra crisps etc by knowing it’ll put me over my calorie target. That’s the theory anyway!

I can totally relate to that, but it’s brilliant you are still going! Keep it up, that’s a really good idea of logging in the morning, I find late afternoon and evenings the worst time if I’m going to be naughty and eat rubbish, but I have to do this im so unhappy with the extra weight
