weigh 13st 9 so 1lb heavier than when I went away & considering all the walking ( miles and miles of it) I did the scales have gone in the wrong direction. I had poached egg on a slice of wholemeal every morning, a wholemeal salad sandwich for lunch & a prawn salad for dinner every night so why the gain? Had to buy some size 18 jeans and trousers and xl tops which was actually quite distressing but I have to continue to try, even though I will probably have days when I want to give up. At this weight I can't see a happy future but if I lose weight I know I have a chance of being happy again.
