I have posted this in another thread, but maybe it was in the wrong section.
I live in Sydney and as is obvious by the name, in Bondi. I turned 36 about a month ago and thought to myself enough is enough. I need to make a change for the better. i've told myself this at various times over the years, but never really meant it.
I started at at 116 kilos when BL started, and am down to 110.
I'm five foot even and want to get down to about 58 kilos. I've reached this once before. That was when I was 18. I was on holiday for six months, staying with some relatives overseas. Woke up one morning and decided that was it. Got mum to post me the diet book I had and some multivitamins. Managed to lose 30+ kilos in about 4 months. Looking back, not the healthiest way to do it. Was on a high protein diet and there was no fruit or vegetables. ![Surprise <img src=]()
" src="/forums/emoticons/emotion-3.gif"> Also didn't teach me how to eat properly either as I was limited food wise. Needless to say, I put the weight back on over the course of a couple of years.
Got a major motivation starter in 1999. My brother (who was 35) passed away suddenly from ischemic heart disease. Basically, his arteries was blocked. Came as a shock as he was the healthy one. Into sport, was thin etc. That made me stick to a weight loss plan for about two months. Then just lost the motivation.
I am currently in the motivation stage again, and am hoping this time it'll last. I've armed myself with more ammo this time though. I've got this website and the show.
If you read this far, thanks! Look forward to getting to know everyone better.
