Hi,

I am 39, female, been overweight bordering on obese all my adult life (BMI - 29.6), Have tried to lose weight all my life and have not had any real success, mostly because I have been inconsistent, dont enjoy exercise and I do stress eat.

Losing 12 kilos will bring me into the normal BMI range.

My metabolism is slow and slowing further down, and I would like to sort this out, once and for all, but in a slow and sustainable manner. I am looking to lose 12 kilos in one year, and then lose another 3 or 4 over the course of the next year (BMi around 23) and maintain that lifelong.

I am vegan, married, no health issues.

I am looking for a female friend who has similar goals, and who is looking for a buddy in her weight loss journey, just for some motivation and encouragement. Inbox me if interested!

Welcome!

    I'm sure a lot of people will disagree with me here but have you ever tried fasting? I went on a water fast a few months ago, in 2 weeks I was losing a kilo a day & I did it for 12 days. If you don't like exercise it's a great way to kick start things. You put about 3 kilos back on (food in your stomach plus the water being held by the food) but I haven't gained any of the fat back and it's been about 6months now.
