Okay I know it sounds like an over reaction . I have training in nutrition and diet so I know whats good and whats not. Im engaged and want to loose a bit of weight before getting married . I've been 'large' my whole life. I get cross when I look at the scales im not particularly tall but my weight is quite heavy for the size clothes I fit in. Im not worried about the weight but want to shrink dress sizes. The thing is I work with lots of families in the area that I live in . many of the mums go to the local weight loss clubs w.w. etc. and I wouldnt feel happy mixing my personal and work life in that area.
I eat healthily and am on my feet most of the day. I have really bad anemia and sometimes I can resort to a small chocolate bar and a glass of coke just to get me through the last hour of work. In my job I can't eat little and often. I start work at 8.15 and half 20 mins for lunch at 11.30 and then dont finish till gone 4.
I also have loads of case work to take home which effects what excersize I can do in the evenings. I had chronic fatigue a few years ago and lost 3 stone within 2 weeks I was THAT ill. Food = energy and in order to just survive a day through week my food intake did go up. Now a couple of years on its levelled out and I wouldn't say my intake or portions are large ? How can I loose weight im getting so demotivated :( ...scuse spelling so tired !

Sorry to hear of your health issues. The advice you've been given could have been different, though, if you'd shared that in your OP.
