Had to share my news with you all, had my 1st weigh in this morning and lost 4kg (8.8lbs), doc is well happy as i have given up smoking too, its been 1 month and 1 day!
Its been a hard slog but in some ways its getting easier, although still have a few moments when i think 'why me, why cant i just eat everything in sight and stay a same healthy weight' lol
Anyway, im having a nice chinese tonight, not going over board, still gonna take a tab in the comfort of my own home :0) and back on them tomorrow!
Well done I have my next weigh in on Thursday, although I am not holding out much hope. I accidently missed my last appointment, so it has been about 6 weeks.
I think when I see it move I will get my motivation back xxx
Aw thanks everyone, i look foreward to logging on here, the support is brilliant, and to have ppl to talk to who know what ur going through is priceless!!
Petal - i was the same, its always been one or the other, i failed miserably at both tho! i was scared mostly, the thought of never having a fag again coupled with the fact that i was positive i would put weight on and thats the last thing i need right now! I have my goal now, my partner and i are trying to get healthy to be able to conceive (i have pcos which goes against me with the weight gain and fertility problems).
i can fully sympathise with you Sian, i too have PCOS and am trying to loose the weight before we try with the baby making to maximise the chances of concieving
i have been trying for about 2 yrs now, and im not getting any younger but the doc wont give me any more help or even a referal until i show im serious about losing weight, hense the pills and the giving up smoking
