flaxseed

Start Weight:	(23 Sep 09) 238.1 lb
Current Weight:	(07 Nov 09) 232.6 lb
Goal Weight:	224.9 lb

following: The South Beach Diet
performance: losing 0.9 lb a week

Retired and living out in the sticks
2 daughters and 1 son who is addicted to drugs and I haven't seen for about 5 years
I've been overweight all adult life
My oldest daughter had breast cancer and a radical mastectomy and OH was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma last year so life has been stressful. Both are well now. I am determined to lose weight for youngest daughter,s wedding in June 09. I'm not going to be a fat 'mother of the bride'.

UPDATE

Jan 09. About half way there now. Its amazing what a bit of determination, a positive attitude and the help of FS friends will do.
May 09 Woo Hoo Lighter now than I was at 21. Still got another 30 kg to go but I know I'll get there

VERY IMPORTANT POST
I don't know whether this is a universal problem but I'm in the UK and if I put my user name and fatsecret in the search box I don't get anything up at all concerning me or my journals.
