Well done everyone! Sella-Vee, I'm so impressed, you must be so proud of yourself.

Honeybunny, I'm sure my bad habits have developed over the years. I was a bit overweight as a child but in my 20's hovered between 9 and 9 1/2 stone so about right for my 5'4 height (I'm not a particularly small frame). Once I got married and was cooking 'proper' meals I think it became too easy to just divide what I'd cooked in two and to clear my plate (I'm sure that is due to not being allowed to leave food when I was small, both at home and school). For me it's never been chocolate, sweets etc but I just lost the ability to realise I'd had sufficient. Some days are easier than others now but I realise that it's taken 40(ish) years to get me into those bad habits so breaking them isn't going to happen instantly but I'm going to keep trying.

A little story of how determined I am - a friend has offered me a jacket she's never worn (good quality and cosy) and it's a little roomy on me and I'm thinking I'll turn it down because I'm certain it's going to be too big in a couple of months - 101 days ago I'd have said 'yes please' because I'd have known that, despite all my good intentions, it would have fitted perfectly by the end of the year as I had no control over my weight and each year end I was a few pounds up on the previous year no matter what diet I tried in between.

This is a life-time change for all of us and I'm so pleased we're getting there together.
