Hi everyone. I am just coming back to calorie counting after a long break. I have been doing slimming world for a while but have struggled and the last time I had any real success was using this. Over the last two years I have been diagnosed with Psoriatic Autoimmune Disease and Fibromyalgia. So exercise can be an issue as sometimes I am stuck in a wheelchair. But my weight has reached the highest it has been and I need to do something. It can be hard as I am 35, I have two chidren, one of whom has special needs, I have a dreadful treatment regime for my illnesses which can make me very ill. But I somehow need to find the energy to do this as weighing less when I am disabled is a really big thing for me. So anyone who can offer support would be greatly appreciated.
