Help

[ollio]

I came on this again yesterday and feel absolutely horrid right now. I joined for help and support from people who knows how it really feels and right now I am so alone.

You're never alone, Ollio and I'm sorry that you're feeling like this, right now. Your other post states that you're off for a walk, which is an excellent idea. Anything that takes your mind off food, has to be a good thing.

Another thing to do, is to read the success stories and look through the Topic, titled Bumps along the Road, so that you can see that you're not the only one to have felt like this and that there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Keep the faith and things will get easier.

Good luck!

Sorry to hear that you feel like that ollio , no one wants to feel alone when they are struggling with something. One of the best ways to not feel alone is to get involved in the conversations along with other forum members. Your comments and opinions are as valued as those of anyone else.

Getting involved in one of the challenges is also good. We are all on here for the same reason we are interested in losing weight and want to lear from others. There is no one size fits all answer as far as I am concerned but I do learn new things almost every day. However, it is connecting with other members that is key.

No one can lose our weight for us but folks on here are amazing at encouraging others. I wish you well with your weightless journey and intimate lifestyle change.

As others have said you are far from being alone we are all here to help, advise if we can and support through encouragement.

Weight and food are such a complex issue that varies from each and every one of us, some find cutting down and adjusting easy some find it extremely difficult but it is the only way forward to a healthier us.

Don't let food rule you, turn the tables, you are in control of you, yes we have that little food monster that keeps telling us " You are hungry, eat fattening stuff", all the wrong foods that give us the nutrients we need that are not within those foods.

If it's depression you think is the problem that needs sorting before any food changes need sorting and only the GP can help with that so I urge you to visit the doctors if that is what you think you need. He/she will also be able to advise regarding the weight loss.

I hope you went for that walk if not I find music lifts the mood if feeling down just a room on my own, CD on and me time.

Good luck keep us posted how you are doing 😊
