I need help and support

[NessaM]

Hi, I'm new here I um recently gained 20kgs. At first, I was in denial about the whole thing. But I recently began experiencing some health problems and I went to the doctors finally and for them tell me the worst thing and how the cause of it could be caused by my weight was scary.

Honestly, I really want some help on how I can start on this plan of losing weight but also making myself healthier. I'm going University next year, I just want to to be able to join clubs without my weight getting in the way.

Hi NessaM, you have made an excellent decision to lose weight and achieve a healthy weight . Steady weight loss over the next 9 months before you start university is a great goal but will require determination. Please read the advice you will be sent and follow the links. This is not about struggling will hunger pains but making gentle and permanent changes to what you eat and do so that you steadily lose weight.

Reading about the efforts, ideas and successes of others on this site will hopefully give you encouragement.

Best wishes for this important project.
