Pregnancy!
I have just started watching what I am eating again and trying to move more when lo and behold after a week of suspicion I take a test and find out that not only am I obese... I am obese and pregnant. How on earth do I work this? Is it possible to end a pregnancy lighter than you start it?? Don't get me wrong I am…

Slimming world for BIG losses?
I have around 7 stone to lose (taking it 10% of my body weight at a time though because 7stone/98lbs sounds like a crazy unattainable goal!!) I am home all day as I work from home on my own so don't really have a social life either. I heard that there is a slimming world group which meets really near to where I live and…

New to the group and worried!
I am currently 249lbs and 5ft6.

I am 32 and…

What have you done today?
Ok so I am just getting started I know. Usually a Friday consists of a full English breakfast, a kfc meal for lunch and a Chinese takeaway and if I am truly honest snacks in between. Friday used to be my worst food day - every week more or less. Today I decided that I would go to Mcdonalds for a coffee with my friend after…

I am the heaviest I have ever been. What is wrong with me?!
Seriously though! Why am I finding this SO hard? I consider myself to be of fair intelligence, why can't I put the right amounts and types of fuel into my body and do a bit of exercise. I am tired ALL of the time. I really don't even do very much, I have 2 school age children and I work from home and to be fair my work…

This is it.
No more new years resolutions or "one last takeaway" or "I will start on Monday".. I have a lot of weight to lose but I don't actually mind what the scales say, I just want to feel better and get stronger. I know I need to lose weight to do this so that's why I am here :) I was a bit of a comic book geek before I had my…
