DH has asked what I'd like for Christmas and also my birthday, which falls in the same period.
I think the budget, as such, for my (joint) present is quite large and fairly flexible - he was going to get me a laptop but we're going to wait a year to upgrade my current one. So I'm thinking of asking for something to help me lose the weight that is like a millstone round my ... well, body.
I need to lose weight so badly. For my physical health and also my sanity as I'm fed up of being overweight and thinking about it a lot. I just want to be free.
Anyway, I want to start the new year as I mean to go on and would like to use my present from DH as a kickstart.
What would you recommend?
Some sessions with a personal trainer?
Or a course of hypnotherapy?
Or something else I haven't thought of?
I like exercise, including vigorous exercise and am not unfit, but am lazy about getting to it and sticking with it. I struggle with consistency, am a bit all or nothing. I hate the thought of doing a diet, being restricted. I have problems with emotional eating which stem from childhood and my parents severely restricting what I ate and saying I was very overweight when I was at the lower end of the range of acceptable weight for my height.
This has become quite waffling, so over to you -
