Hi,

Morning all hope you are all good!

I've just joined today looking to get myself prepped over the weekend ready for a informed start next week. Currently weigh about 22st but do several gym classes a week and love my exercise. I am the biggest in the classes but the people and instructors are so lovely that my weight is never an issue with them.

I've lost weight before and put it back on but this time I'm finding it harder than ever. I have some personal issues that I am struggling with and have become a very emotional person ( tearing up right now as I type!). I never used to be like this and I hate it!

I know hat I need to do, I know I can do it, I start well then my mood dips and that's it, then I tell myself it doesn't matter, then start again. I did really well when I did slimming world but I think it was down to the weigh-in rather than the diet itself. Unfortunately I can't afford to do that now. Need to make myself accountable, do the weigh-ins and be strict. I'll never get to do that Tough Mudder course if I don't!!

Hi there, I joined yesterday as struggling to keep motivation. But definitely helps to put in words sometimes. Am also a emotional eater. So have found a plan that works and just have to keep my mood up. Main thing is keep going! One bad meal or one bad day even a few days doesn't mean you failed. Just move on & get back on track. Soon makes you feel better. Good luck x
