Hey,
I am new to these forums, as you know. I was searching on google for weight loss tips, valuable weight loss resources and helpful dieting sources, such as discussion boards (forums) where I could talk to fellow people who want to lose weight, give support and hopefully recieve it.
About me:
My life has been dramatic to say the least, it's been hard and lonely (hense the name). I have found my self coming across food as a sort of comforting resource. Unfortunely, as my life slowly gets better, the excess fat that I have put on while on the journey is still here, and I, well, absolutely HATE IT!! It seems to get in the way of everything I do. I don't find it easy to go outside and socialise with other people. I mean it's hard enough as it is with the depression, paranoia, panic attacks and anxiety I get, without being overweight. I find that being overweight is one of the most important factors of my life, it has damaged my confidence, self-esteem and my overall self image. When I was much younger I never used to think being fat was that bad, I never really used to be bothered about my weight, probably because I managed to keep it off for so long. But as I have always said, experience is the biggest teacher, and now I know what it's like, completely opposite to what I thought.
I weigh about 13-14 stone (185 poundish) and it seems to be increasing day by day. I do not want to put on more weight; my skin will stretch and my self confidence will plummet. I have tried a few diets and none seemed to have worked, I either give up because of lack of support or nothing goes. So, as I said above, I stumbled across this site. I find that in such a nice community as this, dieting will be a whole lot easier!
Thanks!
Greetings! :)
