hi all
, i'm new to all this so i'll introduce myself - my name is shona and i'm 25 years old and live in ayrshire in scotland with my wonderful fiance ross. for past 18 months now i've been on a bit of a downward spiral as far as my weight is concerned - started of with stress, panic/anxiety attacks and chest pains which led me to becoming depressed. have been on citalopram now for about 6 months which have helped a lot with my mood and i think i'm ready to stop taking them. problem now i desperately need to lose weight probably about 6 stone at least - too scared too weight myself but i think i will go to weight watchers tonight and face the music - i'm guessing i'm maybe just over 16 stone now which for a wee person (5' 1") is a lot!!!!!!
i'm a big comfort eater and have been eating a lot for past year so am finding it very difficult to start but tonight i'm going to join ww - no excuses! my problem is i think that i'm gonna lose it overnight and i get very frustrated - also my fiance can eat whatever he likes and not put on weight which doesn't help when he wants to order takeaways all the time
supposed to be getting married next august but i have put it off because of my weight - no way am i walking down the ailse this size!
anyway if anyone can give me any advice it would be much appeciated
thanks for reading and i'll keep u updated on how i go tonight xxx Shona xxx
