    Believe me I know exactly how you feel. 130lbs to lose, and not a bloody clue how to do it. Spent loads on slimming world and weight watchers but they dont teach you anything as such. So yeah I know the feeling. At 19st i havent any health issues, yet, but it has to stop now really doesnt it. I'll add you if I can figure out how, I need support too, I'm always around if your having a bad day

    I've done all the classes, calorie counting is the only thing that actually works for me! X

    Purchase, read, study and live the book "The China Study", it helped me drop 95 pounds!!
    You can actually reverse type 2 diabetes with diet alone, you just need to be willing to do whatever it takes. Trust me, it's worth it! I was on medication for cholesterol, blood pressure, anxiety and depression - then all I did was change the way I ate (then slowly after I started getting the weight off) I then started the excercose routines.

    Eat plant based. Go for walks everyday. Watch the weight fall off. I guarantee it if you follow a whole foods, plant based diet.

    Best of luck!!!

    thanks for that cam, i will check it out. im not a big meat eater as it it so plant based would suit me anyway. so good to hear u are off all ur medication, i aim to follow ur lead in that department!! thanks for the advice, Liz x
