I'm 55 years old and I need to lose weight. I have tried every diet in the book and have been a yo-yo dieting for years. I was doing really well in 2011/2012 until my Mum became really sick and subsequently died in 2013 and as food is my comfort blanket I got back to snacking/poor food choices. Slowly but surely my weight is creeping back up and I need to get it in check now, once and for all.
I do exercise, I have two dogs who I walk separately twice a day (so 4 walks a day) each and every day come rain, shine, hail or snow to get extra steps and average around 20,000 steps a day (I have a Fitbit which keeps me motivated steps wise). I alos do pilates once a week and Zumba once a week as well, so exercise is not my issue, its the comfort eating and making bad food choices that I need to sort.

Yep - get going on the 12 week plan. The key is to plan your meals & calorie intake. It is not a diet but a way of life to get in to. Plan your meals, use smaller plates & don't get too hungry.
