New Year

Yes it's that time of year when we all make those dreaded New Year resolutions, so I thought I would add mine to the mix. Well the first one is to blog more often and share some of the things that I make. Also to make the effort to keep in touch with people, espically my best friends!! Although I know that they are there when I need them, it's just nice to talk to them about normal stuff not just when I need to offload! Ohh and the most obvious one is to lose some weight. This is probably the most important one as I need to lose it to allow me to get better and to stop being in constant pain. So that will do for now, think it's enough to get me started. Will elave you with some pics of our christmas, my favourite photo is my boys and the bowl for Father Christmas thst they left for him.

Hello Blogland

Well I keep thinking about starting a blog and yesterday i joined a group on Facebook and the lovely lady who runs the group has asked me to blog about my weight loss journey, the Highs (the 15 and 1/2 stone to start with} and the Lows, (getting over the pain barrier and being able to actually do some exercise) So Guys and Gals here we go!!

I've been to the doctors to get some help with weightloss as I'm classed as morbidly obese, and on Tuesday I have my first appointment with my Health Trainer who's going to help me and support me as I lose weight, hmm I'm kinda thinking it might be a bit like teaching grandma to suck eggs, as since the age of about 16 I think I have tried every single diet you can think off(except the cabbage one and I really just can't face that one lol) At the end of the day, the only way I'm going to lose weight is to eat less calories than I burn, but there in lies the problem, since I had my last baby 4 years ago, I've been in constant pain, as my pelvis split when I was pregnant and unfortunately it hasn't ever fixed it self, so to walk to the end of the road causes me a lot of pain, and we have been trying to control the pain so that I can exercise to lose weight so that I can have the operation to fix my pelvis, ever heard of a viscious circle? think thats what I'm trapped in at the moment,

So my friends that's where I am about to turn the corner and start losing this weight so that I can have a normal pain-free life back and be a proper mum to my boys.

I'm sure I've bored you all to death, but I'll be back on Tuesday to let you all know how it went!!

Love 'n' Hugs
