I am a 45 female. Since separating from my husband I have hit rock bottom and turned to the nice comfort foods. This gaining me over 36llb in weigh. Well now its time to stop feeling sorry for myself and get myself back on track. My problem is I have no understanding of carbs, protein etc. I am a bit of a fussing eater too. Need to know what is good to eat. I have for the past 4 weeks cut out all the crisps and most of the chocolate and ice cream and not lost a since pound!!!! Any guidance will be appreciated. Going to continue to look at meal plans on the web and see if I can put something together.

    I was told to cut out the fizzy drinks and that will make a big difference, even if its during the week, i love diet coke/pepsi and could drink it all day so its a shock to say right just a glass of water for me

    I have been drinking a lot of diet coke for quite a long time and after losing weight to start with it now seems to have stopped. I am gonna try and cut out the fizz and drink more water from now. :smile:
