Good Luck!! hope everything goes to plan! Just stay motivated and keep on going, i know its easier to give advice than take it but just imagine the benefits. I genuinely hope everything goes well and you manage to meet your goal just stay strong and if you slip up don't think of it as the end of the world just get right back on the right path !! All the best!

Good luck Snoopy. Perhaps have a look at this link on diet and RA, if the NHS plan does not work for you.

You have acknowledge the fact you need to loose and that is a great step. Well done. Th next thing every morning look into mirror and say you are going to do it.

Good luck.

Are you on steroids? They don't help with the weight loss. You should be getting a lot of help from your health professionals. I agree with all the others.

I'm not at steroids so it's not that. What I can't understand is that none if the departments I visit, diabetes centre., rheumatology and cardiology have ever said anything about my very obvious weight problem or offered any help or advice

Not what you're looking for?
