I've had a constant battle with weight all my life, since I remember I've always been watching my weight, as a child I was a very good athelte and had it drummed into me about eating the right things so I only ate was considered"the proper food"...When I gave up athletics and left home, I ballooned sort of let of the leash, put on loads of weight but loved the life of unrestricted food...was like that for a couple of years then got fed up with being overweight so started exercising, then became obsessive, lost loads of weight, got very fit (again) and life has been consistently like that I seem to be either exercising religiously or overweight.
I'm now in my 40's with two young children and the opportunity to exercise is limited...I loe life but am frequently more and more tired have low energy levels and I know it is absolutely due to the 3 - 4 stone of excess that I carry. My self esteem is on it backside and I don't know how to begin...The thought of going to SW or WW doesn't do it for me (been there, done it before) but I need to break the downward spiral of eating that feels so out of control. I eat when I'm happy, eat when I'm sad, eat when I'm busy, eat when I'm bored...everything seems to evolve around food..... if anybody has any inspirational words they would be most greatfully appreciated..... I'm desperate......
