Hi everyone!

I have been doing Weight watchers for 8weeks now but thought I could use the extra motivation of posting in here too. I have lost 7.5kg in that time so I'm going ok but I do still have terrible days where I go back to my old bad habits.

I have around 38.5kg to go to reach goal, so I think I will be with you all for a loooooong time yet! My weight has fluctuated over the years but I got to my heaviest this year. I was at my previous heaviest when I conceived DD and gained around 12kg with her. I lost 12kg within a few weeks but then gained slowly when she weaned at 8months. And kept on gaining for the next 8months!!!

I have discovered recently while I had tonsilitis , that I have sleep apnea. (A very sudden and nasty discovery.) That really spurred me on to fix this weight thing once and for all. I had one of those moments when you imagine your early death and all that I would miss out on with DD and DH etc. It was a very good motivator!

I have always excercised, even while really big, playing squash weekly, walking, playing tennis, but I have really stepped up the walking now. I went for an hour today I'd love to get really fit and play my squash much better.

Looking forward to motivation and support in here with you all.
