So far so good

I finally joined a weight management course this week. It's a 12 week course that has a free gym membership with it.
I have to follow an eat well program which is not easy. I hate eating breakfast but have lost half a stone already.
Today I went to the gym and I swam 50 lengths. I feel so much better and have more energy. I just wish I could eat chocolate!
Every day I try to do some exercise. I'm doing step ups on the stairs if I haven't been able to get out and do much exercise.
There are 12 other people doing the course and we can win a years membership at the gym so I'm going for it. I just hope I lose weight this week when I am weighed.

Day 8

Weighed myself today and I have lost 5lbs which is good for the first week. I'm eating much healthier food and have managed to not have any chocolate - I had to sniff a box of chocolates being passed around at work lol.
Today I went to the gym with my daughter. I cycled 1.5 miles, did some rowing, cross trainer, arm and leg exercises and swam 20 lengths. The gym was lovely but to join it will be £60 a month and I cannot afford that :-(
I am going to look at some other gyms that might not be as expensive as I did enjoy the exercise.
My aim is to lose another 3lbs this week and to keep exercising - and NO chocolate!

Day 3

So far so good. I have not had any chocolate or sweets, even though they have been offered to me. I have had more fruit and salad. Although I haven't started exercising much yet I have booked a day at the gym for Sunday. I have managed to do more walking but my feet hurt.
Today I took a packed lunch to work and that stopped me from going to the shop and buying rubbish. Tomorrow I have a team meeting where there will be lots of home baked cakes and chocolate available all day and I need to be strong,
I'm not going to weigh myself until the weekend but will cry if I haven't lost anything.

First day

Well today is day one of my diet and so far so good. I have vowed to have no chocolate until Christmas Day.

I have mowed the front and back lawn and swept the garden so enough exercise for today.

I weighed myself and I am 15 stone 9 which is enormous - I need to be 14 stone by Christmas.

I signed up for a free day at a gym today so will see what that is like.

I'm going to be on my own watching tele tonight - there will be no sweets or chocolates
