How it all started...

Being a working mum of two, unfortunately time is not always on my side and my eating habits are only what I could call embarrassing these days!

I know that the weight has been slowly creeping on but didn't realise how much until yesterday when unfortunately it was confirmed, as I was getting dressed (in a hurry) for a meeting my suit trousers would not do up and were looking rather snug over my thighs so had to resort to a stretchy dress.

I knew I needed to take action, now I know that for me diets do not work. As soon as I mentioned the word I diet I start dreaming about sugary snacks or things that are bad for me that I would not have even considered eating the day before so my action plan is to

CHANGE THE WAY I EAT AND EXERCISE...

Why this blog, I wanted to keep a food diary, exercise, weight lost, etc and throught it might help motivate me when the going get's tough which for me being a foodie, lover of savory and sweet it is going to be hard.

I don't have a huge amount to lose and sometimes I think this is actually harder than lots to lose.

My inspiration to start this was 3 reasons:
1. The trouser incident
2. I was looking at some photos from when my husband and I had a night away last year and at the time I thought I needed to lose a few lb's but I actually looked pretty good. Now 8 months later I am 6lbs heavier, yiks how did that happen.
3. A beach holiday in 6 months and I want to wear a bikini

My target is to lose 7lbs and tone up (and look hot in a bikini)

My plan to exercise more so not only will I tone up and have a body like Cindy Crawford but hopefully have more energy. Not quite sure where I am going to find the time for this but I will make the time - that's what everyone keeps telling me I have to do!!
To eat healthy food, not to miss meals and snack on sugary stuff in replacement of nutritious food

So here we go....
