ADVICE and SUCCESS!:) My peak weight was 106kg.The numbers still flash in my head.I always think "How can u let urself go like that?" Now i'm down to 62kg.I'm vegan now, thanks to my boyfriend, and the weight is practically dropping off. I don't feel the need for chocolate when i'm upset and i have realised that half the stuff i used to eat, i don't really like that much! i go for one hr walks in the morning and again in the afternoon. I love it. i also do weights before my walks in the morning!I know think of the world in a totally different way. I think of myself in a totally different way.I'm happy to hear that all of you's are wanting to and are losing weight.Just keep in mind that everyone has their own ideal weight range and also different body types.Don't just think because ur friend weighs like 50kg, that u have to aswell.Work out your BMI and find out what weight u need to be to be within a healthy weight range. Set yourself small goals. 5 or 10 kilograms at a time. Don't starve yourself of ur fav foods or u'll feel deprived and then over eat!My boyfriend would sit there eating chocolate and i would be like "don't eat it in front of me please!" but then i learned to join in. have a square or two... not the whole block like i used to! if u guys want advice or just someone to talk to add me to msn or email me at jugo_slovak@hotmail.com
