I know now it’s because I didn’t have the knowledge or the tools that I needed. I was after a quick fix! Only it wasn’t a fix and every time I was left at a worse starting point than the time before. I had almost resigned myself that this is my life going forward, I was happy in all aspects of my life but I didn’t like myself. I didn’t like how I looked, how I felt , how I always gave up , how I broke every promise I gave to myself. I had come to accept that I was weak and broken…
At the weekend just gone by I bought my first pair of size 12 trousers (in the pic on the left )!!! thats 7 sizes I’ve gone down In just over 1 year, I’m also just a few lbs off my 6th stone & looking forward to weigh in Wednesday this week.
I had been struggling with my weight almost my whole life. I had probably tried 99% of all the existing diets and weight loss programmes over the years. By the end of 2023 I noticed that I spent more and more time on my sofa, moving less, starting to have troubles with my knees and avoiding looking at myself in the mirror and dreading to look at photos of myself.
Thank you for changing my life! I watched Carla's YouTube videos for over a year before I finally decided to sign up in April 2024 and now I have just finished my third round. I have struggled with weight my entire life but it got particularly bad in my late twenties and I was dealing with a lot of depression. I felt that I was too far gone and had no belief in myself at all. I was nearly ready to give up and accept that I would live the rest of my life obese but this program changed everything.
The photograph below with me in the beer garden was my “ Is that really me moment”. The friend I was with loved to take photographs which I usually avoided. When he sent me the photograph, I was stunned I couldn’t believe I’d never really seen myself like that before. I was a bit like the frog in the hot pot. It was of course the point that I said enough is enough, I need to do something about this.
After 3 rounds I have reduced my weight by 61.2 lbs (27.8kg) . I have tried every weight loss program known to mankind! BodySlims is different & I have loved the process - especially the head stuff.
When I finished the first round, I hadn’t reached my original Dare to Dream weight, but I felt great and I thought I had done enough. I lost some more weight on my own following the BodySlims principles and then maintained for quite some time, using the walk as my anchor. Towards the end of the year however, due to a foot injury, I couldn’t go out walking which coincided with a very stressful period in work and gradually the weight started to go back on. BodySlims was so amazing the first time round so I signed up for the January 2025 round, with a new, more ambitious Dare to Dream target.
