Hi
Brief histor - I have been overweight most of my adult life - I am fairly tall and "carry it well" so I have been told I so hate that expression.
I am 44 and have 2 children - 6 & 8 - about 7 months ago I joined slimming world followed the plan but the weight did not come off - I changed from green to red and tried it all - just not for me. I have kept going to the club and get weighed every week but for the last 4-5 months I have been calorie counting about 1400-1500 calories a day. I have only managed to lose about 5lbs in that time which is not good - I have just started half hour moderately fast walking 4 times a week to see if this will help but this also seems to not work.
I am not very peed off that nothing is happening and at a loss why - before I go to the drs and explain everything I am curious to what people think on her.
This is roughly what I eat:
Breakfast cereal(porridge/cornflakes)
mid morning - banana
lunch - chicken salad or soup - sliced melon or pineapple
tea - this is usually a dinner with meat and veggies or some home made soup/stew and about once a week a convenience meal which I add veg to
As a treat most days I would have a crunchie or a couple of biscuits.
I don't see this being a terrible diet and just wondered whether I am a greedy mare or not
Thoughts please thanx
