Hi all,
my weight rocketed in 2003 when i was very ill and comfort ate. I went up to 12.7 stone and was English size 18-20. In 2009 I discovered Paleo and lost 3 stone. i was a happy. bunny, back into size 12 clothing. Thats 8 USA..I then had 5 years of terrible stress and my weight has steadily climbed to 10 st 10 lb. I also turned 50 and my body just stopped loosing weight. I have tried every diet under the sun and decided last week to go back to old fashioned calorie counting even though its out of fashion. I am delighted to say that i have lost 2 lb in my first week! I have Fibromyalgia and M.E and cant exercise. I am fairly disabled by it all. Also my meds interfere with the weight loss. All my weight is around my middle. I look like half an egg sideways!

    Hi Ruth-

    It isn't rocket science... they say its all in the caloric intake. I do swear that I lose better without bread, etc. Just experiment to what works best for you! There is a lot of wonderful support here on MFP.
