    My biggest hurdle I have found is stuffing myself with rubbish as soon as I get in the door after work... I have overcome that this week by making my lunch the evening before and leaving an apple or pear on worktop ready for me, have enjoyed reading your hurdles! Thank you Denise and everyone!

    @fatbambi2017, it sounds like you’ve found some good strategies to mitigate the bad habit of eating rubbish when you get home from work and are famished. Good for you!

    Hi everyone, I am determined to lose 25 lbs. My obstacle has been limited walking because of arthritic knees; just had left knee replaced almost 6 weeks ago. I have not een consistent....I tried ketogenic , Ideal Protein, but have been struggling with discipline. ......Glad to meet you all. Blessings to all.

    Welcome to our group, @bettyeveline! It is hard to walk with arthritis and I’m glad you have a new knee. I think finding an eating style that works for you is key. Having foods you enjoy makes it much more sustainable. You may find that your motivation comes after you’ve made some changes to your diet and exercise routine and not before. Losing a few initial pounds can be a big motivator to continuing on. Sometimes those first few actions are taken in faith that they will lead to the weight loss that we want.

    I’m glad that you’ve joined us!
