Have Metastatic breast cancer - need to lose weight

[KateBush]

Hi , so I’ve never been skinny , but then I lost lots of weight and got diagnosed metastatic breast cancer in July 18. I have been well and it’s all piled back on with a bit extra. I’m terrible at diets. I try and cheat and fool myself. I’m terrible with discipline when it comes to portion size and I love nearly all foods. I know that for my health i must lose weight. Can somebody pls kick me into action and make my mind persevere??? By the way I delay doing exercise and as soon I see some results I slow down . I need help before I can’t take help

Hi Kate... I’m sorry to read you are fighting an illness . I’m the same as you with my weight and willpower . My dad has just had major operation for bowel cancer and another family member diagnosed few weeks ago and about to have major surgery so it’s been an eye opener for me to lose some weight but mainly get healthy as I have gained about 4 stone in a year from stress eating. Always struggled with my weight but never been so unhealthy. I can feel my body struggling under the weight

Hi KateBush (my favourite female singer).

There's a saying that goes "if you always do what you've always done, then you'll always get what you've always got'. Maybe now is the time to try something different.

With that in mind, you can't do more to help yourself then read what moreless has posted in her reply to you and take your time with it all to understand it. It will possibly be different to what you're used to but like that saying implies... what's the point in doing the same thing that keeps failing.

I'd like to think that this is your kick into action but ultimately the decisions will be yours

Good luck!
