Heya, so I'm here as I've steadily gained weight since the start of lockdown. Despite being back at work for the last six months, I did have four or so months where I sat on my bum eating too much and that eating habit has continued.
I ballooned from 75kg to 95kg and it was only today when I saw my reflection in a car window that I nearly threw up.
Enough is enough. I want to lose weight.
I've never dieted before so this will be a learning experience

Hello Katie! I'm Aufa
Let's be friend to support each others I really wanna lose weight too0 -
The word diet is misleading. You were on a diet during lockdown, but it was one that gave you more calories than you needed! Bottom line is that you need to reduce calories but remember that you can do that by eating anything. And moving more will help but only to give you more wiggle room with those calorie numbers! This is a great place to start but you have to be honest with yourself. There are many people here who can direct you to resources that will help but I wanted to say hello and welcome! I have always had success on mfp because it keeps me honest!0
