Losing Weight

I know I have tried and blogged on this before, but this time dear reader I am going to make more of a concerted effort.

It turns out that during the Christmas holidays I have broken the 14 stone barrier and at around 5 ft 9, that is not good. Too much snacking and too much liking the wrong stuff.

So, as of Sunday, I have stopped having snacks between meals and have only just become aware of how bad it was getting. Packet of Jelly Babies, biscuits, quality streets, and that alone is between breakfast and lunch!

It's also good so far because I find I am valuing food more and appreciating meal times. I also hope to resume early morning jogging on days off as well before long.

Because the bottom line is that, at 34 years old and coming from a family where diabetes has been virulent I don't want to reach a point of no return where I am ill and find it very hard to get down to 12 stone. I love my sweet tooth and rich food but I want to value that more than I do already, most of all I want to respect my body a bit more as well!
