Default hi all im new

27 from northeast uk, mum of 3 sons
managed to lose 4 stone last year then put it all back on in the space of 6 months lol

suprising how quick it goes back on

want to get back to 12 stone im currently just under 15 stone and its really depressing me but someone pointed me in the general direction of here

I suffer with depression and have a habit of binge eating but have swapped the chocolate for carrots and rice cakes LOL

without waffling on too much I'll leave it there.

Hi Destiny27!



There are many people here who have gone through the yo-yoing.

From your post you may want to start by checking out the Chicks in Control and Depression & Weight Loss sections. There's also a board especially for the UK chicks who like to hang around

Best of success!

Hey Destiny!

Do check out the boards mentioned by Faerie - any or all of them might be a great fit for you.

Can't wait to get to know you better!

Hello Destiny27

I spotted your reply to my intro thread, and thought I'd say a "Hello" back!

I've been diagnosed with depression / anxiety problems in the past (and promptly medicated), so I know how hard it can be - I also know you can get through it.

Hopefully we'll both get to our goals, and I will see you in the UK board ;-)
