I've been thinking about loosing weight lots recently. I've had two friends lose dramatic amounts of weight just by being more careful with what they eat.

I have no intention of shrinking to Kate Moss size. For me it is sexier for a lady to have curves. As a lady who appreciates the female form I like small bums but I am far more of a fan of ladies who I can get my arms around and cuddle up close to.

My main wishes from this whole exercise are to eventually find myself at a size 14. That's two dress sizes. That's a fair few pounds. That's a whole lot less eating and drinking out. That's a whole lot less alcohol. That's a whole lot less chips.

A friend one said to me - it's pointless loosing weight for anyone other than yourself. You have to want to do it. After looking at myself in a mirror and not fitting my clothes properly I want to do it.
