I am 37 and approx 20 stone (5tt 8)
A self confessed yo yo dieter - I can hit the gym and eat healthily and get down to 16 stone - to go on holiday. Then it all goes back on.
Then two years later I'm back to square one instead of battling another 4 stone like I should.
Times moving on, I'm unhappy with myself and want something I can do easily (I don't mean that will be easy, more convenient)
I am self employed so work lots of hours behind a PC, i skip breakfast every day and lunch usually then have a huge dinner and then most times a supper of toast or cereal.
I know all the areas I'm going wrong in the above and I know how to do it right but this time I'm struggling to get started. And I want something that I can stick to over a longer time - I think I do 6 months intense then can't face it any more.
Something with support too would be good and not overly expensive.
I've never let my gym membership lapse - penance I think so will get back to that approx 3 times a week - just now I'm in the catch 22 when my body is too fat and unhealthy and mind unmotivated to actually get there. I find I have more energy after a week or so of healthy eating.
I'm sure the above sounds more than familiar to some and would really appreciate some constructive diet plan suggestion (there are so many) and tips.
Before Had the time to make healthy meals and calorie check everything in mfp (which I loved using and was honest with it and will use again) but this time I really need something more time efficient so that I don't end up working 12 hours and forgetting to eat so stuff my face with whatever will fill me.
I'm a freelance graphic designer with unpredictable hours (long).
Any help appreciated :)
