I have set myself a goal- to lose weight, get fit, and get a flatish tummy. I am 38 this year and have two children aged 2 and 4. Unfortunately pregnancy has left me with excess weight and a huge belly. I have a condition called diastasis recti where the main muscels on your tummy separate and won't join back on their own. I have lived with this for 4 years now, and it makes me so unhappy. But not for much longer.
I have looked at amnioplasty and this may well be the final part of the plan. But I want to lose weight first.
From today I will not drink alcohol unless socialising with other people (not Husband) We drink every night at the moment and both feel it's getting out of hand.
This week I will begin a new exersise activity. I think it will be swimming for 30 minutes.
My weight today is . . . 10 st 12 lb. I have to say i am quite shocked by that. I have put on half a stone over christmas!! Strangely pleasing in a way though, to start on a unusualy high weight.
So far today I have had a bowl of cereal with a 1/4 of banana.
2 cups of tea.
