Really Struggling

I have been struggling with my weight ever since I was 13. I realise now that I didn't need to then as I had just developed quicker than my friends however it has had a knock on affect and I am now extremely over weight. It has started to affect my health and I need to do something about it. I am still young, have marriage and children still to look forward to, and I would like to enjoy them as healthy and happy.

Hello and welcome to the Weight Loss Forum crachelb

Well done on taking that first most important step, 😊 You aren’t the only one who wishes they only weighed as little as the first time they believed they were ere overweight.

Also well done on tackling the issues now and not waiting until January, it can take as little as a few days to create a good habit, and by Christmas you will be well into a new routine 😊

I'd like to invite you to join our Newbie Club, which we hope will be a good place for you to connect with members, who are also just starting out. If you just post a few words to introduce yourself and respond to others there, you'll soon break the ice. Here's the link

You'll find all the information you need to navigate the forum in the header and a link to the 12 week plan, so please take the time to read it carefully. I strongly recommend the Daily Diary for help with meal planning, and please come on and chat to us on the What’s Happening thread 😊

Wishing you all the best

Anna

I agree with Tiggerr , a lack of credible information definitely caused me to put off doing anything much longer than I should have.

Glad you've found us and good luck! :)
