Thank you all for taking the time to reply. I would love to have a dog for the security aspect as much as the companionship so I may well look into that. A lot of good ideas here, I'll be sure to try in the mean time. xx

Every day, remind yourself of all of the reasons you want to be healthy. Focus on your health, not the weight you have to lose. Eat foods that keep your heart healthy. I don't need to tell you what those are, you already know. Put your health first and the rest will follow. If you focus on drinking lots of water, and…

Yuck Biltong!

I'm glad this is finally being talked about! I've been avoiding Christmas music as often as possible for many years now and it really isn't having a positive effect on my sanity. :smile:

Of course you can do it! Just remain consistent! Keep logging. Keep reminding yourself of why you're doing it every single day!

I have had a very similar situation when I visited my gyn recently. I left really upset because she told me that there was 0% that I could get pregnant due to my weight and the fact I have PCOS. I told her whilst I was there that my friend who is around the same weight/height as myself at the time, who also has PCOS, that…

Losing 10% of my starting weight, and doubling the amount of lengths I can swim in the pool :)

You guys have been great! That's me booked in for tomorrow's class! And I've done a bit of research on the Yoya Instructor and her linked in says she's had programmes run specifically for weightloss and weight management so I am hoping she will be understanding and able to provide me with modifiers and stuff when needed.

Thanks everyone for your kinds words! It has really given me better confidence in myself to go to the yoga class! :)

Thank you for your kind words! I will keep that in mind :)

Hey, thanks for your encouragement! I really appreciated your reply. I'm glad to hear that it worked for you! It's given me a bit more confidence to go in and try it myself, so thank you! :)

Thanks guys! I think I will give it a go :) What is there to lose? Except weight! :D

I guess that's all I can do! And at least if I don't like it or it's too difficult just now, I don't need to go back. Thank you!

At what point did this food become garbage...? Or, are we to assume that this lady was feeding her children garbage to begin with...? A lot of very unhelpful comments here. OP, I would go with the suggestions about limiting portion sizes in the first place, which would mean less waste, and less overeating. Good luck!

If you are a fitbit user, BodBot syncs with fitbit, thus syncing with MyFitnessPal. If that helps.

Clearly Indian. As it's the only guess he hasn't disagreed with as of yet. Together with the name and the dislike of Pakistanis.

Amazing! You're an inspiration!

When it comes to sugar, it's a bit of a difficult one. You sort of have three options 1) Learn to moderate your sugar intake (but you seem to be having difficulty with this already, and many people do, including myself) 2) Turn to artificial sweeteners (which I do not advocate as I feel they are much worse off for your…

You look amazing! Congratulations!
