Hi Kaytee. Didn't want to read and not reply!

What kind of diet are you looking to follow? I might be able to help with motivation. I have been up to 19 stone before, and although I don't know what I weigh now, I'm down to a size 10-12 (it's more important to me to feel healthy than it is to obsess about my exact weight, and I know if I kept track, that's what I'd do!).

Do you exercise?

oh thats amazing hun well done you! :D i really want to be slim again, just be able to wear what i want and not worry about my size, it can really get me down :(
im looking to follow like weetabix for breakfast, chicken bagel for lunch and a small portion of rice, fish and vegtables for dinner, how does that sound?
i dont exercise atm but ive decided im going to 100 sit ups a day, 15mins of jogging and 5 reps of going up and down the stairs xx
