Hi, am struggling!!!

Options
Hello! I am 29, and am looking to lose about 1 1/2 stones. I spent 18 months on crutches, then had a baby, so my weight ballooned in that time. Went up to 79kilos, am now around the 70 mark, but whatever I do, I cannot get below this, or if I do, it doesn't last. I know I won't be a size 10 again, but would like to be a comfy size 12, instead of a tight 14!!! I am veggie, so have a huge weakness for cheese. But have cut that out, not that I have seen any benefit really yet. I want to cry!!!!!

    Welcome! You can do this just take it one day at a time. My advise is don't cut out cheese because you will crave it and that will cause you to fall off the wagon at some point (in my experience). Just eat it in moderation if your not eating meat I'm sure you will have pleanty of calories to fit it in. I have also found the fat free cheese is pretty good and only half the calories. My current favorite it fat free feta, I put it on everything I can!
