This now puts my BMI at 35.5 and although I am still 'obese' I feel like I have come a long way in such a short space of time.
However according to the NHS website someone of my age and height should be 8 Stone 3lb which to be honest I think with my bone structure, I would look seriously ill if I were to be that weight!
My goal is to reach maybe 10 stone which I think would put me at a size 12.
To be honest I don't know what clothes size I am as I spent 90% of my time in jogging bottoms and bagggy jumpers.
My wedding dress just over two years ago was a size 26/28.
My husband says he has noticed some physical changes to me already, mainly my arms look thinner and this morning I put on some 'proper' trousers to help out at my son;s school and they are too big!
Yesterday I did say that every time I reached 1 stone off i would treat myself but to be honest, now I have reached this landmark I don't fancy treating myself at all!
I am positively spurred on!
This morning I juiced a bag of apples and a bag of pears which made just under a litre of juice and poured it into a bottle to take to school with me in case I got peckish.
Usually at break time the kids get toast and fruit as a snack and normally if there is any toast left over I stuff my face with it. This morning however, even the smell of the freshly cooked toast didn't bother me at all!
So I'm sat here now with my juice as I write.
My son, bless him, he is only five and is bit baffled why Mummy isn't having tea anymore and this morning when he got his fruit at snack time, brought me over an apple as he said I could take it home and juice it.
He is worried that I will lose too much weight and not be cuddly any more,
I told him that I want to be beautiful and he say's "Mummy your beautiful as you are"
As for the health implications. Last week I had a whopping cyst on my belly and without having to lance it, it has dissapeared, only leaving minor scarring where it was.
I think when i set out my aim was to 'see how I got on with a 7 day fast' but now I feel really spurred on to do a full 30 days!
Heres me in my wedding dress 11/6/11 at my heaviest weight ever!
