| Hi Tink,
Welcome to minimins!! This website is great and everyone is really supportive. Loads of people will be able to give you good advice and support you on your weight loss journey.
It is really difficult to lose weight unless you REALLY want to and it sounds from your post like you REALLY want too.
Money being tight and all, have you thought about using what you know from WW and doing your own thing? (I dont understand slimming world either - but I know loads of people swear by it!!) Have a nosy round the website - there are loads of people in your position and loads of people who were in your position too. (emotional eating, being a single parent, being lonely etc)
It is tough, but like I said there are loads of people who have loads of great advice (far better than mine!). You are not alone!!
xx
