Hi I lost 71lbs in here in 2012 things happened and now I've got to do it again bar 20lbs.

I'm looking for friends as I've none in this account and need support.
My goal is to lose 70lbs again
I'm 46 have 3 children live in the UK and I was seriously ill last year so exercise except walking is out for a while x

    Hi you sound just like me...i have lost 40lbs twice and regained it and more..im desperate now as i have tried every diet under the sun and it seems to have affected my metabolism adversely so nothing works now..i dont even know what diet to follow anymore. Today i have had 2 pieces of fruit and seem to have blown my sugar allowance already. May go back to slimming world that worked before and let me have some treats. What are you doing?

    Hiya I know how you feel I have yoyoed 28 years lost and gain each year I was considering a gastric band but knowing my luck it wouldn't work lol :)

    Maybe we could buddy up email on here Facebook I know it helps if you've someone similar.
    I was going to try LCHF Low carb high fat it seems to work if you get your macros right and calories I just brought something on Facebook to help me but it's tough 20 g carbs a day I know by ketosis diets low carbs are harsh but I know I lose weight still slow but I do

    How old are you ? Have you have blood tests to check hormones ? I think I need to as my age I was so ill last year I nearly died so it maybe medication I was on now off but each year this is much harder
    I was doing weightwatchers was 100% walked loads gained 2.5lbs week 6 so I don't know what's wrong with me

    Have you done skinning world before ?
    It doesn't work for me ybh I'm not sure what will now but I have to do this I think I'll calorie count and do 40g carbs a day
    It confuses me though x

    I lost the first lot of weight on high fat low carb the second time using SW ..tbh its the switching from one extreme to another that seems to have messed me up completely so i dont know what do now except try to eat less and healthier. Im 51 almost 52 and have had cancer and had an early menopause which im still enduring my doc tellls me the weight is just an unfortunate side effect of the menopause and tells me to eat less and exercise andnotget stressed. Im so fedup!!!!!!
