Disabled in UK

cheruk

Hi all. I am new here. My name is Chrissy, I live in the UK, and I desperately need to lose about 5 stone (about 70 lbs).

I started gaining too much weight when I became virtually bedbound with ME/CFS/fibromyalgia. I am in bed about 80% of the time, and the rest of the time moving around is a struggle. So exercise is not an option.

TO make matters worse I have a horrendous sugar addiction. I am 55 and have had sugar cravings all my life.

My doctor has now agreed to give me Alli tabletsif I lose 2.5kg in a month, so I had my first weigh in there yesterday.

I guess I have joined here in the hope that when life gets difficult, you guys will give me inspiration to keep going.

Thanks for reading.

Chrissy
