Jose, this is what I've been thinking about your relationship with food, as I mentioned a while back - I think the best thing that you can do right now is make an appointment with your doctor to discuss it. She'll be able to assess if you need to speak to a counsellor about your eating, and may even prescribe CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy) which is a great therapy prescribed to people that have issues around food, and also depressive and anxietal disorders. Plus, as I said to you before, she'll be able to refer you onto whatever NHS-run healthy living programme is available in your area. I've just self-referred back onto the Cheshire area programme, and I'm so glad to be back with the friends I made there last summer. With the weekly weigh in (which is done privately, not in front of anyone
) it's also very motivational to stay on track. I think with those, and the tools and support network you already have on here and on My Fitness Pal, you'll be well enabled to drop that weight and keep it off.
As for me, I went spinning last night. I was asked to go by a girl in my boxing class, and when I told her I was apprehensive because I heard how hardcore spinning can be, she said, and I quote, "nahh, it's 100% easier than this boxing class!"
... SHE LIED. I have never sweated so much in my entire life - that was 45 minutes of intense, intense, burn. But, as they say, "sweat is fat crying", so I suppose I'll be going along again. On the plus side, I got commended by the instructor for my steely determination and effort, haha! GRRR, BURN!!!
