hi my names paula and im new, i have high hopes for this site cause its kinda a last attempt for me, ive been one a diet since last august and am now heavier than wen i started, ive tried all sorts of diets, slimming world, low carb, low calorie, lots of gym and nothing has come off, all tests have been done and r normal, so the doc has now said to me that i have a low metabolism and will always be overweight, im not having none of it!!!!
So now im hoping to prove my doctor wrong, if anybody has any ideas please share.
i will do this!!!:bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    I know how you feel! I have always been overweight though but then I stared taking medication and I gained 60 pounds. I cant exercise yet until my back is less painful but I cant wait to start! I do a 1200 calorie diet but that is because before I never eat over 1500. But I always post new things to get and try. Good luck.
