Default Hello, Newbie here

Hello UK Ladies!

I was wondering if I could join this forum. My name is Brenda and I am seriously struggling with my weight, I am currently the heaviest I have ever been

I am 39 years old and have 2 children aged 12 and 15. I always thought that I would never be fat at forty, but I will be as my birthday is in a couple of months I am really determined to beat my weight issues.

Diets dont really work for me so I am trying Paul Mckenna's I can make you slim cd and book (lets hope!).


Brenda

Hey Brenda! I'm nearly 39 and I know exactly what you mean! There is no better time than right now to start making changes!

I love the Paul McKenna CD and book. There is only one thing... you still need to think about what you are eating, portion sizes, etc., and that will help. While I did NOT lose weight only listening to the CD it really helped me visualise things in a more positive light. I definitely got something out of it. Ultimately though, I know that I need the accountability and structure of WW, so that's what I do.

You CAN do this!!

Thanks for the warm welcome ladies!

You are all doing so well in your weight loss - hope I can be the same! Just finished doing lateral thigh trainer exercise - I am knackered!
