Hi, iv also followed loads of diets and seem to have spent the last few years constantly saying I'm on a diet. This time I'm not on a diet but changing my lifestyle and I seem to be much more relaxed and motivated. This group is wonderful for support and advice. My advice is if you haven't got one to get a step tracker. I got one last week and I'm walking so much more than I ever have done. I'm even walking up the stairs now to get those daily steps in ☺ good luck
