Hi again
Kind of embarrassing because I've had several false starts at dieting, in fact I've been trying to lose weight on and off since 2003.
I have a lack of self control and I can't seem to be able to stick with any plans. Part of this I think is because my life is so hectic I end up falling back on to quick food which is generally unhealthy stuff, especially as I tend to crave sweet food.
I'm fed-up with not being able to buy clothes that look good on me and also I have a wedding to go to in November so feel that the time has come to just get on with trying to lose weight again but not sure how to start. I'm a veggie with a very sweet tooth and don't like cooking. I'm married with a son, and they generally eat different to me.
All in all I can't seem to get into a routine or to gain control. I managed to lose weight with slimfast years ago but I think I had better self control then. Could be wrong but I do believe that several years of stress and a hectic life style have changed my levels of self-control and now I've lost my confidence that I can do it.
Not sure what I'm asking for here, but wanted to post. Feel very alone and very tired of wanting to lose weight and getting nowhere.
I know that somewhere deep inside me I have the strength to do it, but I need to find the ability to tap into that strength, get started and stick with it. I certainly have the will to do it, but the actual doing it seems to be the problem. Any ideas on how to start would be good
thanks
