Proof is in the Pudding! Or lack of...

In July 04 I weighed in at a hefty 21 stone and was going up and up. I decided after feeling very unhappy with myself and that I was only to blame that I had to do something it about it... and pronto too! I started my diet by giving up lots of fatty foods such as pastries, chips, crisps, fried foods and chocolate. In came the salads with chicken or tuna for months on end. I swapped the full fat crisps for low fat alternatives. Instead of fatty snacks I had apples instead. Full fat sugary drinks went too and I substituted them with low calorie alternatives. Sweets too, low fat puddings, even though I never really ate them in the first place! All the junk went out the window and was all replaced with low fat, healthier foods. I used to snack in between snacks! That was a no go. I knew that I had to be strict. And now look at the results! I have shed 7 and 1/2 stone. I did little exercise but I did take up walking during the summer of 05. That may have helped a little too.
So, all I can say to the people who want to lose some weight is do it now. Don't wait until the weekend or next month because it will never happen. Do it now and reap the rewards.
