Me

So erm yeah it's Lea.

I decided to do something about my weight as a month ago I weighed, I am only 5ft tall so as you can imagine weighing 14stone 9lbs which I believe is 207lbs. is majorly over weight.

I am not starting my weight loss regieme just yet, as I am still waiting for my Phen to arrive (please hurry up!) initally I will be jumping for joy if I can loose 2 stone which is 28lbs, but with a long term goal for the moment of realistically 3 stone which is 42lbs) I know my current weight is very high and I am classed as severely obese, I have tried in the past to loose weight and always failed which is why I view Phen as my last resort to loose it. As subject to popular belief being fat does not make me happy.

So erm yeah that is a brief introduction to me.

For those of you thinking 'why is she talking in stones?' I am in the UK and it is the easiest way to give my weight as Iv got traditional scales which are easiest to read in stone, I am going to get some digital ones, well I will once I find some money to get a set.

27th September 2006 - UPDATE MAJOR - My phen arrived this morning

hi, lea, i'm in florida, i think the stones thing is interesting, so from what i can figure, it is 1 stone = 14 pounds. i started at about the same weight. my current wt is right at 14stone.

when do you expect your shipment of phen? how much mg. did you order? i take the 37.5, once a day, started 9/17. but i have tried to diet since in august.

Hi Lea and welcome!
While you are waiting for Phen, it would be nice to re-evaluate your diet and start exercising.

hey and thanks for the responces. I ordered the 37.5 tabs. I find it hard to exersize because I have physical health problems, although the building where my landlord is based has access to a bike thing, so I might try push myself to use it, if I can find out from my landlord how much it will cost me etc.

Failing that I am not sure, saying taht I am still not sure as my physical health would be very sore if I was to use the bike... but we shall see.

I need to find myself a ticker thing.

anything exercise is better than nothing. i hate exercise. but do ask your landlord

hopefully it will not cost too much. i use workout DVDs and just close the bedroom door.

Sorry to hear about your health problems. What about just walking? Start small, 10 minutes a day and build it up to one hour. Get some light weights and you can do a lot even sitting in a chair. I would research exercise routine for your health conditions on the Internet. There should be people who have similar problems and found some way to stay physically active.
Good luck!

I am just about to email my landlord.

Then next misson will be to drag myself into town to buy some new trackpants and a new t shirt.

This will work, it has to work,
I am DETERMINED to get thin.
