I’m starting this thread as a way to publicly shame myself into sticking to a healthy eating and exercise plan, but anyone is welcome to join.
About me: I’m 5’2” and I’ve been more or less the same weight (9st) since I was about 14 (23 years ago!) except for during my eating disorder years. I think my lowest healthy, non-pregnant weight ever was 7st12 and my heaviest was 10st. Recently however my body size and shape has changed a lot for no apparent reason. Right now I am fluctuating between 9st2 and 9st4 and it does not look good. My US size 6 clothes are uncomfortably tight and my belly can no longer be hidden. It’s really starting to get me down. I don’t want to waste any more of my life obsessing about what I look like so I’d rather fix it permanently so I never have to think about it again.
TBH, I’m not sure how much more I can realistically do because I already eat fairly well and walk/cycle a lot (I don’t have time for much other exercise) but I’m hoping that by sticking to 1200 calories and cutting out junk, I will be able to lose 10 pounds before the end of the summer.
I will be posting my weight here once a week for the next 10 weeks to hold myself accountable.
Feel free to do the same!
