Determined to be a 'loser' !

Hi there.

I weigh 12 and a half stone and can't find clothes that fit, and look nice on me.

I have completed the 1000 mile walking challenge this year but not lost any weight.

Walking is the only exercise I seem to do and need inspiration to do anything else...in other words get off my backside.

Calorie counting I have no idea about and eating healthier and losing weight is my determination for 2018.

Any suggestions gratefully received.

Morning Clown99

Have a look at the challenges in the Pinned post section for some ideas on exercise. The members here do lots of different types like walking, running swimming, exercise videos to name just some.

That is exactly what I weigh now. I have lost 18 lbs to get here and feel alot better now. I have about 20 more to go. This is a great place for tips from those who have lost and a place for support. I have been here since July and would have given up by now if not for the support I get here. Pick a weigh in day and get started. Good luck!

What you eat is far more important than the exercise that you do, for weight loss, Clown.

My advice is to log onto the Daily Diary, for assistance with your menu planning.

Put your details into the NHS BMI calculator for a calorie range for you. There's a calorie checker next to that, or you can Google, or use an app, like MyFitnessPal.

Make sure you have accurate kitchen scales and you're away :)
