Am just starting my weight loss journey again lost a stone and a half last year and have kept it off but still have about 3 stone to lose. The winter is tough I have depression and can't get motivated but now that spring is coming it should get easier. Hopefully I will succeed this time as like all women I have tried and failed at every diet going.
3 stone to lose. Hopefully will do it ... - Weight Loss Support
3 stone to lose. Hopefully will do it this time.
Good evening and well done for keeping your weight off and coming back to go again.
Have a look at the happiness challenge which is in the Pinned Posts section. I find it really helpful and it does make you think in a positive frame of mind, even about very small things.
Stick with it and reflect back on the tremendous weight loss you have had.
You've kept a stone and half off all year - that's really really good. That's not failing!
Good luck with the next phase.
Hi and welcome, Little-t

Move down to the Topics, to find a variety of threads, collated into specific topics for ease of access and we ask that you also 'file' your own threads, so that others won't miss your important news
Take a look at the 12 week plan, as a lot of people have been successful with it, making sure to enter your details into the BMI calculator, to get a calorie allowance tailored to your personal requirements. Don't forget to take your starting measurements and a 'before' picture, as they can be very motivating on days that the scales refuse to co-operate

You and me both. As you say spring is on its way so it should make things easier good luck. You can do this
good luck with getting those 3 stones off... xx
I can sympathise, winter is absolutely brutal for so many of us with depression or other mental illnesses well done on keeping the stone and a half off, that's amazing! I think everything feels easier in the spring because you get out of hibernation mode, and you actually want to be outside and moving around instead and people actually want to join you! (I'm very excited for spring, can you tell? :D) keep up with the optimism, I know it's hard, but you lost a load, you just have to do that again
You're already succeeding! You've lost 1&1/2st and maintained that loss, despite your depression. Well done, and good luck for the next phase of your journey
Happy New Year Hi Little t38 .Im
Hoping to lose 4stone this year!
