I don't fit in wellies :(
I was all geared up for a big walk with my boyfriend and his dogs, when I put my feet in the wellies left for me by the door. A perfect fit.. until I tried to pull them up. My calves were so fat that it was actually painful to walk around in them. Just another fat slap in the face that I need to lose weight. He's gone on…

Exercise Newbie
Coming up to christmas, I don't really have the money to join a new gym, or the right thermalwear to go running outside. What exercise do you guys do at home to lose weight?

Swimming - is it effective?
I've recently moved to a nice area that has a leisure centre within walking distance. I've found it hard to find the confidence to run/jog/exercise outside because of image issues, but I think I could be happy under the disguise of a swimming cap and some unflattering goggles. Have any of you found swimming an effective…

Slim Fast?
I started Slim Fast last week and have a good few tubs to last me the month. I'm not finding my daily two milkshakes BORING, but I would like some success stories from the diet before I put myself through this for a whole month! xx

MAJOR SPLURGE :'(
My boyfriend isn't here tonight, and like every bit of time I get to myself, I use it to comfort eat. I ate two mini trifles and a huge bag of crisps all before dinner, and ate TWO AND A HALF THOUSAND CALORIES today. I feel like crying. As if putting on/losing 8-14lbs a week isn't traumatising enough! (seriously, what's…

Office IDIOTS
Some woman caught me looking at a picture of an obese woman on my computer, and asked if it was me! Oh well, it's all motivation I suppose! (NB: I am about 100lbs lighter than the person I was looking at)

Ready to give it the biggest go ever.
Hi, my name's Amanda and I'm 20. For almost 10 years I have dieted on and off, first to beat puppy fat and now to beat general obesity. For years I have suffered from a large "midriff", where the rest of my body has remained relatively normal. I was diagnosed with PCOS last year with insulin resistance, meaning I didn't…
