I am obese, I have been since a young child. My whole family are also obese and have been for as long as I know.
I am currently weighing in at 18 stone (24 years old) and my height is 5ft7. I am under no illusions about my weight.
When covid first came about I lost 2 stone. I worked really hard and with a calorie deficit dropped the weight relatively quickly. However I have since put back on exactly what I had lost.
Now I'm not much of a main meal person, I have little portions and have always been very picky, however I snack which is usually in the form of chewy sweets. This is my downfall every time as come the evening all I want to do is snack, it doesn't matter if I've eaten half an hour before or had a massive main meal it's become part of an almost ritual!
I know I can loose weight, I proved that to myself last summer however I have realised what I need is someone there almost pushing me and reminding me. DP is wonderful and says he loves me how I am and finds me attractive. This is nice however it means that he doesn't keep me on track as he doesn't see that I need to loose weight. (For what it's worth I do wear my weight well and most seems to sit in my boobs and thighs so whilst I look 'solid' I don't seem to resemble many other people of the same size.)
Can anyone offer any ideas of where I could find that constant support to keep me on track? I really am desperate and want to be healthier!
