The weight's just slowly added and added over the years until…

Thanks for these threads - I've been here a couple of weeks, just tootling along, logging food & exercise and doing pretty well, but these are probably things I should have read when i first started!

Hi. I don't know if anyone's still using this group as there hasn't been a post since February, but I'll introduce myself anyway.. I'm Beccy, 46, living in Knowle. I've just finished doing the Forever Living Clean 9 programme - lost 10lbs in 9 days,which I was pretty chuffed about - and want to continue losing weight but…
