50lbs to lose

Options
Hi :-) where do I start?!
Well I guess I should explain a little about me.
I have dabbled on here a couple of times in the past but my head just wasn't with it at the time.
I want to keep away from WW and slimming world etc. I find them to restrictive!
I'm 5.1 and need to lose around 50lb.
I'm absolutely miserable the weight I'm currently at! I hate my partner seeing me naked! Feel so ashamed how I've let myself go.
I've spent the past two years looking after my stepson, because he lost his mum to suicide.
I really wanted to get him back into a good place and I finally feel I'm getting him there and helping him cope.
His psoriasis has cleared up and he is doing fantastic at school with no more detentions.
Now, I feel it's my time and get me in a happy place with my weight and health.
I really want this!!
I have so many clothes that don't fit me!
I just don't dress how I like to dress! I'm not me!
I really hope this app helps this time!

    Exactly! I don't want to live like that!
    I feel this way is more sustainable.
    I tried WW and was always starving. x
