Hi all!

I am Angela from Camberley in the UK. I am 26 and the chubbiest I have ever been :-( I know what healthy foods are, I am not naive about portion size and I know I need to do plenty of exercise... or any at all! However I just can't seem to stop munching! The more I eat, the bigger I get and the more unhappy I am... vicious circle!

SO! I thought maybe by joining a group like this might make me feel less alone and also give me somewhere else to put my focus rather than on what I can pop in my mouth next!

Happy to be here!

Welcome to the forum!! I wish you much success in your journey!!

Everything you have said that you do, I am exactly the same, I plan to start dieting every day and then 5 minutes later I am putting whatever first comes to hand in the kitchen in my mouth, I am not happy unless I have consumed it's entirety either. I buy boxes of creme eggs, do I only have one, nope all 3...I wouldn't say I've managed to polish off a 6 pack all at the same time but 3 is bad enough!! We could keep each other motivated if you like

Many thanks Shutterbug :-)

Eilidh - I know exactly what you mean! Whenever I describe my eating habits to people I describe it as "the food is talking to me". I cannot buy a multipack of anything with the intention of 1 a day because once they are in the cupboard they niggle at me until they are gone. This is the one thing I would really like to find an answer to because I really feel its my biggest downfall.

Lets be buddies!

Welcome Angela, Glad to have you join us. My advice is to look for a Support group, Chat, or Challange to join; small groups make it easier to get connected. Most sub-forums have groups covering almost every need, find one that inspires or motivates you and just post to join. Be sure to check out the UK Chicks!

WELCOME! and good luck, I know you will succeed!

Angela -
