S/C/G: 128

Height: 5ft

Default Support needed

Hi everyone
I have tried every diet going, the only one that seemed to work is atkins. I cannot face doing it again, so I am counting calories. I really need support to lose 8lbs (already lost 28) before I hit a certain big birthday. I currently weigh 122lbs at only 5ft. The last 8lbs proving the most difficult to lose, so hope Keeping my fingers busy at the keyboard might keep my mind off chocolate.

Hope to get to know some of you

Keeping busy and away from food will DEFINITELY help you. It got so much easier to not stuff my face out of boredom when I moved my computer upstairs and started playing World of Warcraft. No, seriously. Sitting around at a computer game helped me lose weight.

Welcome and good luck ! I know those last few pounds are the hardest. I am another shorty like you and know how it is. I found calorie counting works best for me.
