Back yet again

โ€ข14 Replies

On the advice of many people on this forum I'm going to try to engage more to keep my motivation up. I'm very overweight, very unfit and have a lot of pain issues. I comfort eat and I'm getting bigger every year. So, one step at a time I'm going to start coming on here every day and trying to get inspiration and motivation. What I normally do is come on here and try to cut my food and up my exercise to drastically which causes me pain all over and migraines. So this time I'm going to approach it slowly and methodically. If I can ditch the sugar habit that would be a fantastic start, if I can ditch the eating in the middle of the night that would be even better. If I can then start moving more, I really will be extremely pleased. So one step at a time. First stop sugar!

Thank you!

That is really helpful thank you. I love olives and have lots of nuts in the house so that is where I will be heading. You are absolutely right about not focusing on the negative but focusing on a positive. Thank you again.

Welcome back. You are wise to take things a bit at a time. The one thousand mile journey starts with a single step and slow and steady will get you where you want to be. Good luck and best wishes.

To loose weight, it's a gradual process. It need a lot of patience do not rush it.

Dancing is one of the key way of loosing weight easily with fun. You can watch weight loss dancing videos. on you and dance along.
