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
