Tuesday 9 September 2008

The beginning is nigh.

Tuesday 23rd of September = Diet Day (DDay).

I'm waiting until then because I'm going on holiday to Turkey for a week on the 15th and don't want to
a) Be on a diet while on holiday
b) Start a diet, take a break in the middle, come back to it. That will throw my mindset off.

Diet of choice = Weight Watchers.

I did weight watchers a couple of years back and lost about 10lbs in 4 weeks. I was much thinner at the time and didn't have a lot of weight to lose. In fact I stopped the diet because I thought I was looking pretty darn good. It's such a great diet; I love it! I will have to be on it much longer to reach my goal weight (9 stone 3lb) this time though, which I suppose is a good thing as it will give me more time to break my old habits and create new ones. I think I'm about 12 stone 10 though I've been avoiding the scales recently. Figure it's gonna take about 5 months to reach my goal weight.

My other half, with whom I live, will also be doing it. However, as far as I'm concerned we're not "doing it together". In the past when we've dieted together and I've given in to temptation he's blamed me for him subsequently doing so too, and vise versa.

I'm quite looking forward to beginning!
