Hi - So I lost a few years ago 4 stones using food replacements and I went back to my old eating habits and now I am back in the Obese category - I keep re trying with the food replacements but keep failing ( I don't want to belittle the food replacements as they are good to get to an ideal BMI and work well for some - although i understand not everyones cup of tea) however I don't want to keep dieting and have done so for the most of my life... So I have a PT and he has said that he is going to do me a plan which will probably involve more calories then I have ever eaten very much on the way of eat more to weigh less.... I am short 5ft 2ins and find it really hard to lose weight so my eating more calories im a little worried... I lift 3 x a week and although not losing any weight at the moment I am noticing a difference in my measurements.. I was wondering if any one here has had success whilst being obese? I guess I have always done low calories and the thought of more terrifies me .... encouragement needed - Thanks
