Four years ago I joined MFP and I lost around 3 stone in weight. Sadly in September last year I had to have surgery which meant I struggled going out the house, I got depressed and everything I lost I have put back on, and more besides.
Today, I've turned a corner. I got back on the scales, something I had been scared to do , because i knew it would be bad... and it was. I could've cried. I remember how MFP kept me in line and helped me so much. I'd love to have some friends who can offer encouragement and I can do the same for them. So I take a big deep breath knowing that there are hard times ahead. I need to get back to exercising and eating better. Anyone out there in the sameboat?
