Hi guys,
I'm back after a long time. Long story short - July 2013 I had a nervous breakdown and was off work for six months. Weight went down to 146 pounds, I looked great. Back to work jan 2014 have since gained weight and am now a roly poly 155 pounds. I'm 5ft 8. And 47 years old. Mentally I'm much happier but really down about my weight. I'm on holidays now for two weeks, don't want to overeat because it's the holidays. But I'm eating way over my daily amount. Any help or encouragement would be really, really welcome and I think you guys are all doing great btw!
Thanks xxxx

    Why do you think you're overeating? You say you're on holidays, maybe you're bored. Try starting a new project, anything to keep you busy. And if you're not at work you have more time to exercise.

    I'm glad you're feeling better.

    Thanks so much. I'm just overeating because the food here is soooo good but you're right. I'll be a bit more discerning in my food choices. Thanks for replying x
