Right I see what you mean. Gosh I just always thought that the less I weighed, then the less I could eat and would have to go harder at exercise-the last few kgs are hard to lose. Will seriously look into recomp suggestions thanks so much!

Thanks for your kind reply PAV8888. My avatar pic is from a few days before Christmas, and I have lost 2 kgs since then. Thats so nice of you really, but if you saw my body I am still big in areas, mainly my legs and bottom.

I have 4 young children and understand how you feel tired, they can be draining sometimes. But most…

Hi asmith8399! Thank you, it was my pleasure sharing a bit of my story ;) It is super frustrating for sure, and it drives me crazy not having control over all this. I started this journey to concentrate on me for a change. I am a mother to 4 children under 10, and their needs have all come before mine naturally. The…

Wow thankyou seska422! Your reply is very helpful and much appreciated. You are right in everything you say, I have been eating in a way that is not sustainable for the long term and thats why I am still struggling. I will try and develop a better relationship with food, and like you say, dont give it so much power over…

Wow you look absoulutely amazing and beautiful! You should be incredibly proud of your hard work and determination! You have motivated me to keep working hard towards my goal, thank you and congrats!
