seriously need a good kick up the backside to get myself motivated, i have been trying since april and only lost 8lbs that just is not good enough, I am still trying to lose 31lbs to start with. I know i can do this and have changed my eating habits and am being healthy i know i am not eating enough calories for my height of 5ft 2ins, so now i am going to up my cals and see if this works better for me, I have been struggling with lots of emotions since losing my 23 year old son 3 years ago so it hasnt been easy but i feel now is the time to tackle my health issues and weight is the biggest problem any advice or good talking to will be welcome!
