Hello!
I’ve started a group here before but can’t find it!
But would like to start up a group of likeminded folk.
I’m 13st 11, and short.
I’ve terrible will power, get stressed easy and live with someone who eats and drinks like a horse and is fit as a fiddle!! So temptation is huge!! I work a fairly physical job but I eat like a giant. I’m always tired and by the time I finish work at 530pm(start 730am) I’m tired and have to cook dinner( my partner doesn’t cook and won’t eat “rabbit” food, he’s not massively supportive or sympathetic and thinks I should have willpower and not expect him to help!!)
So I’ve to doubly work on it!
My biggest sacrifice will be cutting out alcohol, cheese and chocolate and butter! And I smoke like 15 a day esp if I get stressed.
Any way less moaning from me and anyone that would like to join and support each other let me know or comment!!

40, 5'2", currently 216 pounds. My roommate is not remotely fit, but he doesn't care so he is no help. My son is autistic, so food is difficult. I teach autistic 4 and 5 year olds, so my job is exhausting. I then have to come home and do everything here as my roommate does nothing. I do not cook for my roommate usually, but I often end up needing to cook 2 different things for myself and my son to get something that fits my plan for me and something he is willing to eat for him. I do not drink, I recently stopped vaping. I refuse to cut out cheese entirely, I just have to make it fit in my calories. Chocolate is harder to fit in though. I REALLY want some peppermint ice cream, but most days I manage to avoid it.
Feel free to add me if you like.0
