First Post

Well this is my very first post and as I sit here typing I think why am I setting up this blog.... Well this past year has been full of change for me. It has had extreme highs and in contrast extreme lows also. This highs/lows were as a result of my journey through losing weight. I have lost 6 and a half stone over the past year and it certainly has been one hell of a journey. I am nearing the end of one part of this journey as I have less than 3 stone left to lose, but before I move to a maintenance stage and as I lose the remaining weight I wanted to take some time to contemplate the changes in my life. So the aim of this blog is to help me reflect on my progress and struggles and aid in the adjustment to maintenance. I would also love to think I could help others out there like I was helped. I know only too well the heartache of obesity and i have wasted far too much of my life unhappy. It's time to move on and live my life to the fullest!
