Just starting

Options
I am starting once again (for about the 100th time) and am feeling positive. I am 40 and it seems that my metabolism is slowing down, I can gain two pounds just by looking at cake. I struggle with a sweet tooth but am finally accountable for it and am looking forward to looking and feeling great.

    Good Luck, keep positive. There will be moments that you may give up or have a bad day or not lose as much weight one week as you had hoped, but stick with it. We are all going through the same thing together.

    If i am about to have something bad i always find it helps to come on here and chat to friends. They give you the support you need to get through the tough times.

    Also have a look at the sucess stories. It makes me realise how much i want my goal and not want i want right now.
