I start tomorrow. Today I went to Tony Ferguson and I bought everything I need for the next week. I’ve been to the supermarket and bought all the fresh food I need.

I’m bigger than the last time I weighed myself, which is disappointing but it was before Christmas. Today I’m 143.1 kilos, with a BMI of 50. I’ve got a long way to go. I haven’t been a normal weight since I was a child, so I’m selecting my goal weight from a chart, 65 kilos. I might revise this as I get closer. Right now it’s too far away to tell. I’ve got 78.1 kilos to lose, which is more than some people weigh. Any encouragement or advice is welcomed, especially from anyone who has lost or is trying to lose more than 50 kilos.
