I can explain why the weights been gained...I work in an office now (that means I'm sat at a desk for 8 hours a day 5 days a week) whereas previously I've always had jobs like waitressing, sales assistant where I've been on my feet all day.  I don't exercise really (I never used to but things like theatre shows meant alot of dancing and prancing about and just general messing about with friends at college).

So, what I do have is a few fitness dvds, I like aerobics and dancing so I'm going to start doing these religiously every evening, I have a running machine aswell.  My diet is already pretty healthy but I'm going to cut cheese out (I'm a vegetarian and laziness has made me replace meat with cheese). I eat far too much pasta and rice which is not terribly bad but I probably do over do it.  I'm also going to shun chocolate...now this is going to be hard because its easter and I have loads of chocolate in my house to tempt me but I'm going to try my hardest!!.

Another incentive is my smaller clothes from last summer... I have a pair of gorgeous size 8 knee length denim shorts that I would loveeee to squeeze into again.

Okay, so I'm going to keep record of my weight, write down everything I eat and maybe take some pictures if I ever feel confident enough.  

Anyone want to join me??

My goal is to get down to a perfect size 10 (with the possibilty of even fitting into my size 8 shorts) by June.
