My name is Claudia. I am a 34 yr young female. I stand at 157cm short ;D and I weigh 110.4 kilos. 
I thought I was always on the heavy side. But when I looked back through the photos I wasnt I was actually quite normal. Maybe it was just me with my crappy self images.
Why do I want to start a weight loss plan at this time in my life? Have you ever felt that embarrassment of taking your kids somewhere, maybe to there sports, special events at their school, just anywhere, where people have to see you with them in public? Well I have that written all over me. I am not sure if my kids feel that way. They don't say it to me if they did, but they still want me to be around them to take them to those things and be with them. Maybe it is just a dilema I have of my own. I am a very active mum when I do, do these things as the sports seasons roll into one after the other, but I still manage to eat twice, thrice even four times as much as I should. How did I get this way? Well I think it started with my last 2 children I had.. No no no no dont get me wrong I don't blame them at all. This is all on me. I used being pregnant as a way to eat what ever I want. AND THAT WAS WHATEVER I WANT!!! Chockies, icecream, chippies, soft drinks..... Yea I ate the good stuff, but always backed up by the bad stuff. And then once I finished having babies I forgot to stop the bad habit, no it is not forgot, I didn't care, I always thought I can stop if I want to. It got even worse. I did my my calculations. I was putting over 2200 calories into me every day.
Yes I get depressed, when I think of how I look. It is not a good feeling at all. I tried to be happy, but I see me in a mirror and cringe. I have been on the diet for 6 days now. I have had a few hiccups on the kickstart diet but I am getting there.
I did day 1 and I was really hungry for the next few days. Day 2 I ate a bit more Crispy noodles than I was supposed to and a bit more chicken. Day 3 was a bad day for me, I started out good. I did breakfast snack and lunch as I should but I ate five wicked wings from kfc.
I know that is really bad. But I must say I paid for it that night. I got back on the diet the next day. The headaches started to fade after day 4. My exercise regime has been walking for 30 minutes each night. My body is feeling really good. Although my muscles I havent used for a while are aching.
I can't wait to weigh in on Wednesday morning. I cant see the changes in me yet as I know I am still huge, but I would like to see that change in my weight even if it is minor.
I want to lose 50 kilos and get the life changing experience to keep it of. I just need the determination to get me through, I must agree I go off line sometimes but I am really trying even if I am struggling. Learning to eat so much less is my biggie especially when I can't eat the boil up and the roast chicken with stuffing, and the McDonalds when I take the kids at this stage, but I am learning to deal.. Oh the lollies the chocolate.. lol well that is enough rambling from me. I will probably login on Wednesday with my new weight. Ciao for now.

I still sit and watch my family eating all the nice food I cook for them. The chockies the kids eat are still a big temptation. I can't lie..... I have survived the first week of temptation, so I am feeling proud of myself. Not too keen on the milk.. lol taste like the water I am drinking. I might start adding a bit of lemon to it. It may taste more yummy. I am impressed to the amount of water I am drinking. I miss my cup of tea with normal milk.
