Anyone else feel tired/defeated before they even start?

I've been 'dieting' for twenty years.

And I've tried every diet known to man, since I was ten years old.

I try them for a while, lose some weight and feel good, stop dieting and put it all back on plus some more for good measure.

I'm currently the biggest I've ever been and weigh in at 16 stone 10 pounds (5ft7)

Inspired by a thread on here I booked a gp appointment for next week.

I really know I need to do something. Again. But I'm so sick of counting, synning, calculating and feeling hungry.

But logically I know that's what I need to do to lose weight, and I really do want that.

It just feels like I'm trapped in a vicious downward cycle.

Come and join us on the no-s thread. There's no counting, no banned foods. It's more about forming a healthy relationship with food.

I've been doing it since January and have lost 1.5 stone. It's been slow and steady but I can imagine myself eating like this for ever now.
