LighterLife Community

I'm going to be 25 in March 2010 and I was a fairly slim child until my teens where i was slightly heavier and slowly put on weight until I became 17st 5lbs... I couldn't believe I'd become that heavy. I got married in Aug '08 and really shouldn't have.. . despite being with this man for 9 years he cheated on me and I promptly ended our relationship in December 2008 and i'm now awaiting divorce... I felt that i deserve better! lol =D> I looked at how my life had become and possible reasons the man i once loved had cheated... obvious place for a downtrodden woman to start would be my weight and appearance, so I moved on with my life and shed just over 2 stones. Over a year later, now weighing 15st 6lbs, I have a boyfriend who is very supportive of me and my weight began to rise by 1lb each time i looked at the scales so 4lbs heavier I decide enough is enough... I need to do something drastic to ensure i don't plateau around this weight. I'm currently a size 18/20 and I want to be slimmer... the great thing is, since splitting with my Ex i have grown so much and learnt so very much about the real me.... now my decisions are purely for me and my benefit long term, not a way to handle the stress of a traumatic breakup. I am excited about Lighterlife and will be starting this in Mid March 2010 and I will be a Good Girl 100%, i've promised myself that! 8-< I've never been a slim adult and I deserve to realise my full potential. I'm full of hope, confidence and excitement about LighterLife... I can't wait to start my journey and hopefully become an inspiration to others x

So.. been to my LL meeting, start with the packs tomorrow, cant wait.
had a slap up curry today... honestly? i feel full and fat... i must keep this in mind when the cravings begin!

going to re-set my ticker. its irrelevant what ive lost before LL... i want to being fresh. x

Wish me luck x

Well.. it's been a week since i went to the LL intro meeting..

I'm chomping at the Bit to get on with the plan! it doesn't help that i'm loving reseraching the B&A stories and other reviews as well as forum posts, it just makes me so excited to get on with it!

I must admit, i know why LL make you wait but blooming heck they must lose some people to other diets and people giving up waiting... i w...

Do i tell people i'm on LighterLife or be one of those people who smiles and says.. i eat right and get lots of exercise?? he he... tempting!

Was bemused to find that our men have their little "dressing to impress" tricks just like we do!

I find if i wear the new style of tops with slightly broader triangle shoulders then my waist looks slimmer and an attractive hourglass shape... thats a classic tip just like V neck tops attract the eye there instead of to a tummy etc, but my boyfriend is doing some DIY today so he put on an old work t...

Created a thread on the forum today about doctors sicknote. Earlier i was upset as i found my doctor wanted to charge me £30 plus £20 thereafter for bp checks which i felt was a little unfair plus i had to wait until 10th march to get this done which was getting very close to my LL start date so i was worried i wouldnt have my form in on time etc and i'd be stuck for 3mths in a lifestyle i'm wan...
