Hi everyone
I have been on and off this board for what seems like years. I am 32, have a 6 year old and am approx 2 stone overweight and have been since dd was born (and a bit before if I am honest).
I KNOW I need to lose the weight and I WANT very much to get into my slimmer clothes. But time after time I fail at diets. I really dont want to do anything which involves shakes, soups, meal replacements etc and I find that calorie counting makes me either miserable because I am eating foods I dont like or I end up binging on "free" foods on weightwatchers or eating my last 4 points simply because I have them left over, not because I am actually hungry.
Having read the Paul Mckenna books I wholeheartedly want to follow this way of eating, I want to eat for the right reasons and enjoy my food.
But, I have this little voice in my head which stops me eating intuitively. I am really asking for some inspiration or some advice about how to get my head in the right place. I probably am a bit depressed (had PND and was on anti d's but came off them after 18 months) I function fine from day to day but just dont have much self esteem and I think that is what is stopping me from achieving my goal.
Sorry, really did not mean this to be so flippin' long!
