It’s time I went public. Time I stopped making excuses and took responsibility for my weight-loss journey again. Sure, there are a lot of excuses-
-
The lack of energy that comes from having a chronic and disabling illness (which invariably leads to eating, coz eating=energy, right?)
-
The low levels of activity I can manage right now (although I’d love to be able to jog again… I loved that sense of freedom)
-
The complete and utter lack of motivation when all those ‘treats’ wink at me from the cupboards downstairs (I did mention that I share a house with 4 grown men didnt I??)
So there you have it. I need to loose around 3 to 4 stone. It’s doable. Ive already lost 1 and a half stone to date. So it just goes to show that when I’m motivated all those excuses are NOT a barrier to weight loss… or at least not a barrier that cant be overcome!
BUT…
This isnt just an ‘I’ve got ME and I’m losing weight’ blog. My plan is to share a load of the tips that I’ve gathered over the year and a half that Ive been on this journey. And I’ll be sharing a lot of my personalised worksheets too. Once I’ve figured out how to do it!
Are you trying to lose weight too? Do you have a chronic heath condition or are you disabled with poor mobility? No probs. Lets go it together and see if we can’t be losers together! (groan).
