Looking at the long road ahead

So I've made some realisations over the last 12 months of my life, and one of those keeps coming back to my self image. 

I'm not happy with the body I'm in. 

I got this way through an illness that had me bedridden for the best part of the last 12 months, and some days I'm still laying in bed in pain. 

I need to make positive changes now - so that I can be that slim girl I was 12 months ago again.  I'm a comfortable size 10-12 usually.  However I've ballooned up to a size 16, and in dresses I sometimes hit an 18.  Worst of all, with limitations on the exercise I do (which is how I used to stay slim)..a lot of this will all come down to the choices in food that I make.

Here's to being a slim and trim fox!  Good luck to you all ;-)  We're in this together!!
