At my first weigh in tonight I was 14 stone 7 lbs (about 196.4 lbs) - which means that overall I have about 4 stone to lose! I cannot believe that I have allowed myself to get this big!

Four stone is a big amount so I have decided to try and break this down into smaller amounts so my aim this week is to lose 3 lbs with a longer term goal of loosing a stone by my birthday in February. I will be counting points using the weight watchers plan starting tomorrow morning.
