I really need to lose weight, I cannot go on like this! Just weighed myself this morning and I'm 18st. In September I was 16 stone. It's a constant yo-yo, lose a bit and gain some more! I can't go through another summer like this. I hate myself, if I lost weight 99% of all my problems would be gone! Seriously, my depression would be cured, and I would be happy as larry! I can't/won't go anywhere, I feel self conscious all the time. I just want to be bloody happy with myself for once. So yeah, 2020 is the year I will reach my goal weight of 9st. 9 stone in 12 months. I need to do it!

What do you want to achieve in 2020?

You've got this backwards. Treating and managing your depression could make it easier to lose weight. Food issues tend not to be through being "lazy" or "greedy" - they are much more complicated than that. If you were underweight, it would be much easier to view it as a pyschological issue. Overweight tends to get viewed as a lack of self-control. Personally, I think it's better to focus on health, rather than weight - but I also know that's easy to say. You deserve to spend time on yourself working on becoming fit and healthy - however you choose to do that. But part of that is taking care of yourself mentally and emotionally.

Get PhD funding

Get back to a weight where I'm comfortable (have gone from a size 22 to a 16 this year, want to get back into my size 12 Topshop jeans!)

Another lose weight and get fitter. I feel like a lot of my issues would be sorted if I lose 2 stone.

Meet my career goals and pass an exam.

Spend more time with family.
